idk, I went and looked at the vegan comm after seeing this reply, and the most "toxic" thing I saw was vegan folks expressing frustrations with bad takes on their lives from libs in very nuanced (and even sympathetic) ways. these posts from comrade Angel really got me thinking, actually. it just reinforced my view that this is a very friendly and honest place!

i'm not sure if hexbears realize just how bad the actual toxic internet cliques are...
