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.

Reminds me of when BlueSky recently got overwhelmed with reports. They got something like 42,000 reports in an hour, which is significantly over the regular traffic of the platform apparently.

People like their echo chambers, and I suppose as a side effect of maintaining them for so long, if they go somewhere else they try to turn that other place into their echo chamber too, I guess.

Yeah I feel like twitter in specific started (or maybe just accelerated) a trend towards moral absolutism in online spaces.

It’s always enjoyable to watch people who spend a lot of time in online echo chambers trying to use the same energy irl.

You and I have different definitions of enjoyable.
