      I’m gonna be honest, I’m not familiar with the concept of circle jerking. I looked at some of the other posts in the community and I’m still not getting it. Seems like a regular vegan community, but maybe with a bit of extra deep frying?

        Circlejerking (in the non-sexual sense) means posting an opinion to a forum that’s obviously going to agree with it. Basically preaching to the choir, but there’s more of a mutual exchange of upvotes and agreement.

        However, since the community itself has “circlejerk” in its name, the posters here are very much self-aware, and it’s not particularly serious as a result.

        It’s a shitposting community for laughing at silly vegan posts
