Is the local hobby scene as bad as this board makes it seem?

Wait. Are you or are you not speaking for yourself? It’s a bit unclear , though I do agree with many of the adjectives you’ve used!
Wizard, you come on an internet board and impugn a whole group of people, most of whom you don’t know and have never dealt with personally, calling us all racist and xenophobic. Don’t get me wrong, you’re entitled to your opinion and I’m not particularly bothered by your characterization, but don’t you see the irony in it? I realize that the younger “woke” generation probably doesn’t think much beyond “racism bad” (and similarly for xenophobia, homophobia sexism etc). But WHY are they bad? It’s precisely because they all involve doing exactly what you did — denigrating whole groups of people en masse without any personal experience with them.

I feel sorry for you. You've lived here almost 2 decades, and you obviously haven't made very many friends or been introduced to the thousands of fine, decent, sophisticated, well-educated, well-informed and respectful people of this area. Why don't you try your luck somewhere else?

Wizard,
What country are you from if you use the word Yunz. If you don't know how its used and what it means would you be considered a xenophobe.

Does anyone know who started using the term xenophobia in America to attack others.. Was it Obuma or Hillary.
