I know it's The Onion and they're just joking, but this is not far off from what Nextdoor app was like when I was still on there last year... I had a lengthy debate with a woman on there who had been literally stalking someone because they didn't pick up their dogs poop. She was posting pictures of his house online and taking about vandalizing his property. When I pointed out that what she was planning was illegal and was very likely to end in a physical altercation and possibly with her arrest they all turned on me pretty much instantly lol
I'm really glad I'm not on that app anymore
I’m the founder of my neighborhood on ND and I refuse to even download the app today for this exact reason. It started as a great way to ask about missing pets and let people know the pickup was happening, and it became an absolute cesspool.
What ND taught me most was that people loathe and despise the homeless, they are apparently not even human beings. I assume this is because we all know deep down that we’re a missed paycheck or two away from it ourselves.
You saw what happened in South Park with the homeless? It's a scary ordeal. /s
