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.

I mean it's classic Orwellianism to make up wild claims so that they seem normal when you do it. It's also called hypernormalization. Say crazy outlandish thing that doesn't exist. Then when it happens no one is surprised. The Big Lie. Etc.

I still remember conspiracy theory that we are ruled by pedophiles....

In early 2000s....

In 2020s this is a well know, properly documented fact.

Casting couch jokes... Were not jokes either...

Mass government surveillance without warrants... Also a know fact ... Now

All of these were "conspiracies"

Lab leak theory was suppressed aggressively, now it is considered viable but we just don't know

Regime propganda appratus can't even keep its narrative straight anymore but sadest part is that with polarization, they don't have to. Normies will larp their team no matter what, like docile dogs

It is disgusting seeing what should adult people behave in such a way. Caring more about politics than people around them

So we really got the rulers we deserve as a body of people.
