From Comics Should Be Good!’s 365 Reasons To Love Comics, recently in the comments as Bill Reed discusses various comic strips:
I try to be extremely tolerant when it comes to differences of opinion, but “Peanuts” is one of the very few works where I would actually distrust anyone who doesn’t like it. It’s perhaps the most psychologically insightful work I’ve ever encountered, in any medium.
A-goddamn-men.

The list itself is pretty lame. I could think of so many reasons (and so many better individual characters) to love comics and only one reason to hate them (The Retcon). But Peanuts is a cultural icon and definitely deserves to be up there.
Someone disliking the strip would definitely merit an odd look, but I don’t know about distrusting anyone who dislikes the strip though.
I disagree with Zen. The mere inclusion of Nextwave: Agents of HATE and Stuart Immonen makes the list instant-win.
