Why do people hate electric cars?

I'm not really a car guy so I decided to ask the specialists/more educated people in this matter.

I am not an electric car owner. I say this so people don't think I am a defender or someone showing electric cars down their throats or something, no I'm just a guy with a very little to no understanding on this

On the internet and even in real life I've seen people hate electric cars and I never understood why.

Is it due to them being harder to maintain/repair or need highly specific environments?

Is it because they're harder to customise/mod?

Or is it just because of the execution and because the largest car brand is Tesla who is owned by Elon musk and... That whole can of worms.

The only thing I have understood and saw is how long it takes for them to fill them up.

In a gas car to fill one up fully it tastes roughly around 10 maybe 20 seconds max but on an electric one it's usually several minutes..
