    Metal heads and punks are also really inclusive despite society viewing them otherwise.

      and despite a tiny but vocal minority of them being bigoted assholes (for metalheads at least, don’t know enough about punks)

    Yeah, they are thinking of 2000s xbox live chat. It’s been a while since then.

      I still see calls for eliminating minorities in Steam forums, and not very subtle ones at that.

      It was a choir of angels compared to comment sections on ifunny or 4chan.

        Maybe in ranked queues, but I play a ton of the more casual game modes (ARAM mayhem and Arena) and the toxicity isn’t super common to see. Like, it does happen but it’s much rarer than it was a decade ago now that Riot actually moderates things.
