unaccepting of opposing opinions

He had learning difficulties and problems with speech and long term memory

and that has anything to do with the fact that he idiotically killed himself?

[weaver123]

He probably had other underlying mental conditions as well as his learning disability and speech impediment. It's not funny; if you want to crack jokes about it then you're an insensitive prick. The guy went through hell.

unaccepting of opposing opinions

Oh, now I get it.

What they intend to be a "safe space" almost always turns into a circle-jerk of forced consensus and ends with every member repeatedly expressing the exact same opinion to each other, no matter the topic. Since the community is founded on unconditional love and support no matter how much of a tool a person is, these communities tend to attract tools and rational and useful advice is usually a rarity.

Look if he didn't kill himself because of this he would have killed himself over something else that's just as stupid.

I remember there being a topic when I was still lurking about an LPer who committed Self Delete, and for the next 20 pages it was full of edges and pissed off people.

It was the best thread ever created.
