Why does fandom seem to hate Suzaku?

I have been nosing through the fandom for some time and I couldn't help but notice the rampant Suzaku hatred. So, I decided to find out why this seemed to be the case.

'Hypocrite' seemed to be the biggest complaint, but (and yes, I am a Lulu fangirl as well before you kill me) Lelouch is one, too. So I was wondering just what made Suzaku seem to be such a target of ire.

I'm just interested to see what dynamics make people like or dislike certain characters in this series.

basically and to not make things redundant, I just don't like Suzaku that much. I admit sometimes I just wish he were killed off and all. But what really pisses me off is that he doesn't seem to have the gutts ( forgive this Suzaku' followers) to make significant changes within britannia. It's okay, Lelouch and Suzaku took different paths to fight Britannia or more like thw world order but at least Lelouch knows how and when to make his moves. He manipulates everyone ( even without geass =_=;; ) and gather them under the "Justice flag" but Suzaku being almost a Knight ( already is since 17.5 XD ) hadn't make any significant add into britannian rows, I mean he could I dunno, hackjack their system, try to convince someone or I dunno just SOMETHING! and not just fighting blindly and following orders. mmm.... I really don't know what to think but for me a least his actions are far more screwed than Lelouch but we must remember that they are different characters and even if I kinda support the idea of Suzaku being at first glance a Syaoran/Kira Yamato reflection, I prefer Kira like 1000% more.
I also think producers are guilty, because when everyone come to compare Suzaku/Kira or any other character, well, Suzaku gives the impression to be an important character and yet his actions so far are from a secondary character, far away and not really as important.... mmm, hope I'm making some sense, but yeah I think it's most like people is feeling deceived by how Suzaku is being lead on the story and how they first thought he would be lead.... the result being totally different from what most of them has expected ( included myself )
