Enjoying It for the Wrong Reasons

Text on the meme

Isn't it a good thing when there are more people who share a same interest with you? No, because they enjoy it in the wrong way for the wrong reasons.

What it means

An anonymous imageboard discussion shows one user happily asking whether it is good to find more people who share the same interest. Another user replies that it is not good because those people enjoy it for the wrong reasons. The joke captures gatekeeping and frustration when a niche interest becomes popular with people who interpret it differently.
