The numismatic community is not even the worst community when it comes to this. Just look at the rail buff hobby, the whole hobby is infighting between different people, and has a large number of people who are incels.

Many train wreck threads on that forum.

There are a lot of lonely, insecure and unhappy people in this world. No close relationships with friends or family. They often portray themselves as experts with the hope of being relevant. Arguing allows them some interaction with others which is really all they want. It is easy to identify most of those people here by recognizing who sits behind the screen all day posting non stop and looking for any interaction through argument or illusion they are experts. Sadly the internet allows them to feed off one another. Lonely people look for things to occupy their time such as coin collecting and thus why it is rampant on coin forums.

Face to face those people back down through the underling insecurities unless they stumble across someone with shared interest and views. In that situation feel everyone should know opinions.. One frequent poster here and prime example can be found in the Rochester area and in person unimpressionable although continues to find ways to irritate others
