It depends. I've had all sorts of experiences, anywhere from hipsters who flooded San Francisco in the mid-to-late-00s to Silicon Valley dweebs with zero social skills and obsession with anime porn to rednecks, hillbillies, soldiers, hunters, hikers, engineers, researchers, and even a couple of real scientists. Shit, my own sister has a Ph.D. in biochem, although I don't consider her a real scientist, just an over-glorified technician.
Of all these groups, the hipsters and the tech dweebs were the least tolerable, most of them were mid-western suburban transplants, I'm sure it's easy to imagine why but mainly it was smugness and lack of social skills.
What's funny is that same could be said about my generation...
Fuck, my wife rang and I lost the train of thought. Something along the lines of -- I agree with you, and with the exception of a very small amount of people in any group, we can always find compromises and common ground on any given subject or areas of common interests if we aren't dicks to each other. But that's an obvious truism and applies to pretty much any set or sets. Until, of course, decades of indoctrination turn some people into NPCs, then we have a problem.
