Super interesting and provocative! And thx for the bee girl reference (hadn't heard/seen that one before!) I feel like the 'drug' analogy sells communities a bit short though - makes it seem like it's a short term hit - the illusion of belonging - with a bunch of downsides vs. something more genuine and real
Agree. I don't think community is only a feeling/drug, just that it's a powerful and often genuine part. It's part of the equation I personally don't think about enough.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
