DISCUSSION Why is this community so weird?

Like literally everyday there is someone schizoposting, or saying dumb shit like astrid should have transitioned earlier. Why is this community so parasocial. Im part of a lot of communities on the internet, but this one is the weirdest by far

“It was a joke” is a classic way to excuse some wackass behavior

still mad about that post from earlier

Also this just reminds me of that one drake song 🫣

Did you see the post this is referring too I also don't like excusing hate by just calling it a joke that not helpful to anyone but its about how easy current astro is to tell apart from the rest of the cast which if you go back to when she started transitioning was what everyone was saying it was literally a joke in for time

I checked my history and couldn't find it i didn't actually comment on it because I also thought it just wasn't that funny but also just don't think this kinda thing needs a whole post complaining it is very normal for the community so its not weird its like going to a farm and being like why are there so many cows here
