Truly a pretty terrible place for any kind of social activity.

People here are super self righteous and unwavering in their beliefs, quick to insult others and be generally bitchy, pedantic and quick to dogpile. Worst of all while still usually slightly wrong about a thing, but unwilling to hear it.

It’s basically the worst parts of reddit users where we have boiled it down to the most affluent or socially insecure.

Even if it’s as simple as a question people jump to defend their position with insults rather than answer it cause they get worried the person might be confused and it’s best to just make sure it’s a closed community as quick as possible.

This isn’t an open community it’s a private gated one where everyone jumped the fence and is scared that the wrong person might have come in with them.

Condescending is not welcoming.
Upvoting cause they are your in group isn’t community.
Berating outcasts cause you at least don’t feel like them is still bullying.

      I know that just fine. So what would knowing that matter or do for me? Or my comment?

        Which is insane since they insist on a economic system from 200 years ago.

        I think it’s just that your argument against communism seemed to be based on its age, i.e. it “being old and out dated.”

        (Agree communism is not great FWIW)

          Yeah i thought it was a clever dig against it and also fun turn since I think I have had better conversations about modern day pop culture on hexbear.

          I just wasn’t exactly in favor of capitalism anyways just wasn’t the point.

          Thanks for being my sanity check on that.

            I question what your criteria for a good pop culture discussion is if you enjoy discussions with a bunch of angry neckbeards
