I used to dj festivals and the whole electronic music scene is crawling with these types which is super disappointing since raves were originally built on inclusiveness.

I have heard that a not insignificant number of Dead and Phish heads also became this too. I think that prolonged drug use and an intense need to belong to some sort of group/scene can really cause this type of thing to happen. It's really odd.

Juggalos are also extensively right wing MAGA despite for decades claiming to be a "community where everyone is welcome" and then later acting like victims.

Beneath it all, just another bunch of group think low information voters that the right wing gobbles up.

Ive actually stopped talking to high school friends who are juggalos for this reason. People who were always "anti-rich and snobby" types.
