He may be a little bit more flamboyant than most, but sadly he is far from alone there. Makes me sad to admit I live in Plum.

Yeah, I grew up there. Hasn't changed much since I left.

I did too. Unfortunately, I don't remember it as being quite as bad. It always seemed to me growing up that the good people in Plum outnumbered the assholes, and that seems to have changed.. Though I suppose my perceptions could be off.

The assholes are everywhere. They always have been, they just weren't always emboldened to be in your face about it. That's what happens when we have shitty "leaders" that not only don't denounce this crap but spew it themselves.

Nah your perceptions are spot on! The assholes FAR outnumber the good people in Plum. There seems to be a real increase in vocal assholes in Plum the last few years...I mean there's always been an undercurrent and reputation of Plum being that way, but with social platforms and these fucking assholes feeling like they have a forum (as u/Bungalow_Man points out) it's been real bad lately. Someone in my neighborhood is fucking flying a QAnon flag prominently outside their house. What's funny is I live in an older neighborhood and most of my immediate neighbors are older and have lived there for decades and they are good, salt of the earth people.

Wonder if it’s the holiday park state store?

That's the only one in Plum that I can even think of. Unless there's one in unity. But that would be silly, there's one in Penn hills by community market.
