Seems to me that most people aren't aware of the people making fun of the community.

One thing that can happen is that there will be an anti-community that springs up around making fun of the original community, and then a journalist will write a story about the community that the anti-community will discover and leave negative comments on (or the journalist will discover the anti-community and write a story on its existence--remember that journalists are strongly incentivized to drive pageviews).

Seriously, if you're going to go into panic mode every time someone outside the community criticizes it, you'll never accomplish anything.
