Hate Bear or Stax?

Ok so we need to acknowledge that there is this passive aggressive energy against calling certain cards "stax". I hear things like: "My friend JLK and his friend JW say [blind obedience] is a hatebear effect". Yeah....so which is it?

Are you adding a little stax to your deck to slow down the meta or are you going the hatebear route to combat faster players? Or have we become annoyingly pedantic when we are saying the same thing just to argue about it?
