Ah, I didn't realize you were mainly going off the subreddit, that makes more sense now. Reddit in general tends to have a milder tone compared to most internet spaces, in my experience. I imagine they're talking about the Paradox Interactive official forums, which can have a more hardcore tone overall, pretty often I'd say. I actually tend to avoid them for that reason, despite being a pdx fan in general.

Even then can you think of some examples from their forum? Going to it myself is feeding my error messages likely due to my VPN or browser configuration

I'd really rather not dig through looking for the trolling to copy/paste. I'm not a cities skylines 2 player, so I don't really have a horse in this race, except hating toxic internet bullshit in general.
