Yeah I'm not 100% sure, but I think that the original complainers about 2016 were related to what's happened in Syria, as well as being pushed by possible anti-brexiters or anti-trumpers.
Then a bunch of other people that haven't paid attention to Syria at all wanted to jump on the 'omg 2016 sucks bandwagon', and thought it must be about the fact that a relatively normal batch of celebrity deaths have happened. So now people think that the 2016 sucks thing is all about celebrity deaths.
I mean to be fair, a huge amount of celebrities have died in 2016. Joan Rivers, Robin Williams, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Lauren Bacall, Shirley Temple & Richard Attenborough is a .... Wait no that's 2014
