to be honest, kishi explained he had the ending pairs already picked out, so there was no lying going on either way
sasusaku was always meant to be an endgame canon. as a main character pairing youd suspect it better develoment between the two of them. could it have been done better? yes, theres no lie there. salada IS their kid, and likely kishi gave her glasses just to make some ~drama~ happen while ignoring the fact that sasukes a pretty horrible father so far (an a horrble husband but i digress)
i wont lie, sakura DOES deserve her own happiness and sasukes being pretty bad at giving it to her, but im just waiting for the end of naruto gaiden so kishi can explain why he did what he did. while drama is important, red herrings can be a hassle to deal with...when people start taking them seriously, that is
and i am very active on tumblr, and while i do agree that there are a lot of idiots out there, there are a lot of mature people out there too who arent as loud as the annoying idiots are. besides, dont limit it to just ONE artist! ive seen several artists quit before from naruhina, too, because they got a lot of hate from narusaku/narusasu. the tumblr community of narutards is bad sure, but dont generalize everyone
i am tell you right now that i, myself, ship nh and ss but i have never really sent anyone hate. heck, i follow this artist on deviantart even though they draw a lot of ships i dont like, because i know i am mature enough to not throw a fit about it. tumblr can be a bad, bad place if you let it
a lot of fans are nasty, and thats the issue with the fans themselves, /not/ the ship they ship
ive seen a lot of hate from narusaku fans myself, but im not one to say the whole ship sucks because of it. i understand why there can be some appeal (because kishi made red herrings for his ship, too) and i generally dont pick on people who ship what i dont unless theyre shovin it down my roat constantly so. i know a lot of people who are this way and not rabid and insane
