I think it's that the previous stories have had some degree of horrible tragedy in the future, so the plucky resistance coming back (or vile villain doing the same) has some degree of drama to it.
As you say, these folks are just, apparently, assholes and so fail to engage my interest never mind my sympathy.
So yes, this is different from other stories of its ilk, it's even LESS interesting.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
