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 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"
