    Jeez, why can’t people just take things lightly and have a good laugh.

      When someone expresses a concern about the underlying culture of a community:

      the milk propaganda community

      You respond with a personal remark that was not kind

      someone is insecure

      I respond with a remark that calls into question the validity of milk propaganda being a requirement

      get calcium from broccoli

      Then you respond

      you don’t know how to take a joke".

      As you are the creator of the community, this display shows how you will handle the culture of your community. I don’t think I want to be a part of a passive aggressive milk propaganda community.

        And I’m absolutely fine with it.

        This is indeed a community based on sarcasm, second-degree humor and self-mockery. I understand that it’s not for everyone.

        I’m astonished at how people can take futile things so seriously though.
