I personally find all this animosity towards other clubs and their fans super boring. I guess many just need to see others as "villains" in order to feel better about the club/computer/car/phone or whatever the thing is they like.

You are kinda right , although I do prefer the competition to be won by a team that doesn't buy the champions league per se .
I mean city invested in the pep era what 1.3 billion. I like them to keep doing that without the payoff.
Why? Real bought how many players to get 3 CHL in a row? Ronaldo, Benzema, Ramos, Varane, Modric, Casemiro, Kross, Bale. Why can real do it and other teams cant? We do buy players too this season none of our starters was from academy, since we cant spend as much as City and PSG we shouldnt hate them.
I find football a lot less fun to watch when I'm not emotionally invested i.e. when a team I love (Juve) or hate (not real hate, but schadenfreude) like inter or Man U isn't playing
Football fandom on the whole isn't rational, is it?
I know it's silly how much time and energy I invest into it, but life is nothing without passion

That's the thing I'm only emotionally invested when I watch Juve play. The emotions supporting this club has given me (good and bad) have very little to do with rationale that I agree on.
I just think many of these rivalries and hatreds between fans feel a bit artificial. People feel those feelings and talk shit about others because they think that's what they are supposed to feel and say.

There’s only 2 clubs I truly despise in Italy, the rest are just meh.
The hate I have for a lot of English teams is because of the pig ignorance of a lot of their fans, but the players from those clubs for the most part I have nothing against at all.

Think of it this way: I love Juve, I want what's best for Juve, what's best for Juve is its rivals doing bad. Our historic rivals failing is obviously good for Juve. That's the whole motivation behind this so called hatred; it's not really hatred, it's continuation of love for your favorite team.

That's the part that isn't quite obvious to me. Why should I care how Real or Bayern do in a competition where we're not competing against them and what good does it do to us if they fail?

Gotta admit I got pissed when Liverpool won their 6th CL. We were equal with them, now they one more than us.
But at the same time it was fully deserved they won that CL. They just played a fantastic campaign, not like that 2005 which was more of a fluke and a Milan meltdown.
