stan culture

Stan culture describes an online phenomenon in which communities of stalker fans and hardcore non-stalking fans, or stans, engage in overly enthusiastic support of a favorite celebrity online (called “stanning”), including at times vehement, coordinated attacks against detractors and critics. (I found this definition on Google, but not in UrbanDictionary!)

Those people outside the Depp/Heard trail are stanning in the deepest stan culture ways.
