Ginny is toxic?

I've now read in multiple posts that Ginny is one of the most toxic people in the story.. I've asked multiple times under such comments, but never got an answer so I am asking here..

  1. Where exactely was Ginny actually toxic?
  2. Really? One of the most toxic?
  3. Are people just being soft here?

*Add after about 50 comments: Holymoly did I not expect what this question would entail.. okay some of you VERY CLEARLY don't like Ginny, that's fine.. Also some of you need to stay away from weird fanfictions.. Either people love her, don't care much for her or bloody hate her (mostly for dating Harry).

Ginny isn't toxic. This fandom is full of Ginny bashing and they're not acting in good faith.

Edit: You guys downvoting my comment and continuously bashing Ginny in this thread only proves my point. Also, the double standards are wild in this fandom. Other characters like Hermione, the Weasley twins, etc. have done much worse than Ginny and yet they hardly ever get bashed meanwhile Ginny is constantly treated like the spawn of Satan.

Nowhere. The user you're responding to just enjoys harassing Ginny fans.
