While very true, highly communal societies can be extremely toxic too.
Imagine not being able to get a job and having everyone actually gossiping about you. Pretty much middle school fears realized.

- derangedHorse 1y agoIf the society was truly communal, then the people able to employ you should be the same ones gossiping. The question then becomes why they won't employ you. I do agree that living communally can be unpleasant if you're an independent thinker with views different from everyone else in a way no one can appreciate.
