This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

"Ruins the internet"

I happen to remember the forum culture of the mid-late 2000s. It wasn't that great.

I do recall that people were extraordinarily toxic online. Reddit for a few years was a breath of fresh air but then got too big.

It was better though. Wouldn't call it good. But definitely better.

It was dead to me over here until you posted about it. Want a reddit hate circle jerk updoot buddy?

They will also just casually full bore ban you because you were mass reported.

That's what someone I talked to theorized happened to me.

I was banned for posting "I think my right to punch Nazis should be protected by law".

Not kill, murder, maim, I didn't even name any groups where there was a lick of grey area, Nazis, the one group that since WWII, everyone has agreed are alright as a universal bad guy.

I had a 10+ year old account with like 1.5m karma get full stop banned for reasons behind my comprehension. I wasn't doing any overt racism, misogyny, violent rabble rousing... Nothingworse than vehemently disagreeing with somebody and calling them an idiot or a clown.

I only suspect I triggered a nerve which got me mass reported to an extent that I got caught in the dragnet. Being disagreeable was a ban worthy offensive maybe??

Overly sensitive fuckwits with brittle feelings. I am the same ol' dumbass I always was but the culture shifted towards "business casual" away from being more like "diet 4chan"
