[QUOTE="Deleted User, post: 8281944"] Probably because people don't like being told that they're behaving wrong by someone they most likely don't know. Forcing ideas down peoples' throats, especially provocative blanket statements that force everyone into tidy little boxes, isn't a good way to win the hearts and minds of people. Your blog was basically imposing a world view upon everyone. World views are subjective, no matter how deeply we may believe in them. GBAtemp is best known as a console hacking forum, with many members who are competent in the process of hacking consoles and maintaining them. If they have questions, the forums here are probably the first place they'll think of heading to, with the assumption that people here are knowledgeable and willing to help. While it'd be great if more people knew how to properly Google, or if everyone who ever joined the forum stuck around and became regulars here, this is simply not the case. People who ask questions here are not obligated to become a part of the community, just as the people who answer said questions aren't obligated to do so. You also forget that many of the members that decide to ultimately answer the question or help out in some way can be considered millennials themselves. Your statements, after reading through your first thread/blog, seem primarily anecdotal in nature anyways, and ignore the context behind the forum in the first place (assuming that was the context you were phrasing your argument in, which you most likely were). Because many communities that are labeled "toxic" aren't always just discussing sensitive topics. As is the case in many Discord groups, it can involve actual harassment towards members of the community. Just as there is a demanding PC and safe-space culture in our generation, there's also a lot of backlash and decidedly anti-PC attitudes and sentiments as well. All you need to do is just visit 4chan's /pol/ or some choice subreddits to see how millennials can act decidedly anti-PC as well. [/QUOTE]

FMA seemed more metaphysical. Like Alchemy was a mysterious comic phenomenon, that gave you an experience.
In brotherhood it seemed more direct. Like there was a "god of alchemy that" one met. And it liked humbling people
