Is writing Fantasy making you a Snowflake?

I was hoping to never discuss this at least for what I felt was just a troll online, I was told writing even what I love is considering making me a Snowflake. I'm terrified of writing and now I'm not sure what I should do. Should I continue with the book series or should I just hide the literature and hope no one makes a show of it? I'm to the point that writing or even being one is kind of a risk to one's personal life.

I remember talking online about being a writer and talking to an editor, I was happy about the whole thing, but even though the editor fell through, it was still worth while to see people say, "Hey, at least you're going to get it done." Then when all this stuff that is political happening, hostility got worse and when I told someone I hope that I could still write even with the hostility and the person called me a horrible writer and I'm not brilliant or great, I'm just awful anyway and no one will read what I have to write. Not only was I shaken hat someone who was a friend, suddenly turned into a terrible person, that I was suddenly not worth ever becoming a writer, that I am a pathetic Snowflake.

I started to hate the term and I think that it is best that maybe I should try and hide some of the works and yes, I know I'm trying to keep politics off this blog about my writing. I'm terrified of everything, and even if I'm successful, I'm pretty sure that I will fail because of my terrors and night terrors about writing and being called out.

The truth is, how do I know if writing is the right thing?
