It is impossible to separate out however, how the movie was marketed and how people that rely on controversy for attention have fueled this fire. For instance, a reasonable human being would agree that you might just not like the new Ghostbusters. I saw a Twitter exchange with Devin Faraci saying, no, in fact if you don't like it you hate women. Full stop. When asked why that would be so, he replied "I don't know why you're a misogynist, probably because girls don't like you."
Even he doesn't really believe that. But he makes his money by stirring shit and getting attention for himself. This is the classic definition of "Internet Troll." It feeds right in to the other side wanting to believe that, basically, exactly what he said. This movie is in part so incredibly polarizing because a bunch of bottom feeders benefit from making it as polarizing as possible (this includes at least some of the people doing marketing for the film itself.) It is horrifying to think that advertising of the future is going to be based around sowing social dissolution in such an obvious way.
