The acronym FUD has transcended its original meaning of Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt. It has now become a mechanism to dismiss any information that isn't outright propaganda for your crypto project of choice.
This can blow up in your face. Instead of heeding good information or warnings about your project, you instinctively dismiss them. As to investigate the information could potentially give credence to it. This would betray your financial and emotional investment in a project.
It would also mean that you would have to face the prospect that you made a mistake. Resulting in financial loss and public loss of face, if others are aware of your investment. These are bridges we won't cross until we are forced to. Best to instantly dismiss any information that questions the project's propaganda as FUD.

With 46% of 2017's ICO's already gone, maybe next time you get some bad news about your favorite crypto-project, you should investigate it for yourself and see if it has credibility.
Bad news is only FUD, if it isn't true. If your crypto-house is burning, then you are correct to feel fear, uncertainty and doubt. This is what motivates you to GET THE HELL OUT!!!!
