People are hesitant to believe you when you say that the most drama-filled community is like…the knitting and fibre arts communities.
Like, I am not someone who even knows how to knit, but these people are crossing more than stitches, they are getting in lifetime beefs, claiming to have invented basic patterns that have existed for 100s of years, having about 100 Fyre festivals per tax season, some extremely serious cultural appropriation issues, racism, threats, legal actions and multiple faked deaths.
These people are wild, I swear. They may all act like they are just in permanent grandma mode, yet what are knitting needles rather than ready-made shivs?
Fandoms come and go, but fibre arts are forever, and some of these people are clearly carrying the grudges of their ancestors. You don’t know the fable of power corruption until you see someone with 3k followers letting all that imagined fame go to their head and accuse some random store of stealing their design, I swear. This community is full of dropped stitches, and everybody snitches.
