I think a lot of is people desperate to be 'part of' their fandom, but, again they don't have any real skills to create something, so they just try to latch on by doing something literally anyone can do, with the built in (and generally false) assumption that their thoughts are more interesting than they are.

As I have noted before, the internet contains much of the false sense of empowerment and inclusion that used to go along with getting a letter published. Only the internet skips that whole step of having to catch an editor’s attention.
