>>899995693Such is life I suppose. This website is the last haven of the "old internet" left it seems. The past few years have been devastating for even this place as well. The OGs are all leaving to unplug and soon itll be nothing but shills and tourists that just want to say "nigger" on the internet.
If I've learned anything from being here and then letting the mask drop IRL its that people respect you more when you speak your mind, but as of late it feels like anonymity erodes that. We've manufactured this culture where to have a "wrong" opinion you have to self-censor yourself and say it anonymously online via a place like this or a burner account. Everyone does this, but even in doing so they'll be just as quick to burn you at the stake when you let the mask drop. The ones that don't are just as disillusioned as you and I. It's almost kind of funny though; in a way, we did it to ourselves.
