I hear people complain about the kardashians way more than I've ever heard anything directly from them. I can't name half of them and i couldn't tell you what any of their voices sound like. And this isn't me going out of my way to avoid them. I just don't see them because i don't care.

Yet people still complain about them like the kardashian's are physically forcing them to pay attention to them. Its really not that hard to ignore them.

That's why they're so famous. Because despite never watching/supporting them, people still talk about them.

You're absolutely right. I'm just pointing out that 80% of their fame comes directly from people who keep complaining about how famous they are. If they just stopped bringing them up then the kardashians would be as famous as any other reality tv group like real housewives, thousand pound sisters, and duck dynasty(if they're even around anymore). That is to say, we would have a vague awareness that they exist and not much else.
