I'd like to submit my essay.
I don't hate Chris, he's done things in the past that have made me annoyed, possibly angry, but I can't say I hate the guy.
Here's why I think people hate him, I could be wrong but....
I think the real reason some people hate him is due to a mix of arrogance and jelousy. It's the same reason you might suddenly dislike someone at your job who got that promotion you wanted and felt you deserved. I don't want to stereotype, but all the haters seem to live and breathe the internet. A-log himself wanted to be the next big YouTube celebrity, he didn't have a career or a big social life, it was all he lived for. These people work hard on their videos, making sure the editing and image placement is just right. They rehearse why they say, saying lines over and over until they get the right tone. They finally make their sad masterpiece and it gets like, maybe 100 views.
They pour their free time into their Sonic OC, comic, or whatever and literally nobody on DA likes/favorites it.
They spend hours writing into their livejournal/tumblr and get nothing.
Meanwhile Chris could literally fart on camera and nothing else and he's got 1,000 likes, 25,000 views, and 250 comments. The envy kicks in, "Why does he get all the attention and fame?" then the arrogance "I should have that because I'm better than him. He sucks. Fuck his talentless ass. I hate him."
That's just the attention, not even the money. Oh, Chris makes money sometimes and it drives people bananas.
"Now he's making money off his shit?!? My work is leagues above him and I don't make shit. Now I really hate him."
"I can't believe people donated money because that piece of shit burned his house down. Would anyone care if I, a better person, lost their house? Seriously fuck him."
"I'd kill DStecks IRL, he's such a moron for giving money to such a worthless waste of matter. My comic is far better but I don't get a dime. But I don't want to look like an bitter A-log so I'll cry about that money possibly going to charity instead."
