I am sure as an enjoyer of c/greentext you can appreciate the comedic value of such an unmoderated cesspool.

As someone who used 4chan a very long time ago, I appreciate the comedic value in how much of a cesspit it is, not because the people there are valuable. I spent a while there seeing death threads (threads of video/images of people dying) and all kinds of other messed up things. Do I assume those things are good things for people to see though? Absolutely not.

Every word we give up to whoever “uses it wrong” gives them power. I am not going to do that.

First, we aren’t “losing” words because language changes. We gain many more instead.

Second, who’s “them” that are gaining power. You seem to have an imaginary enemy you’re fighting. I can promise you you’ll lose because “they” aren’t real. No one is trying to control you. They’re only trying to keep you from harming other people. “They” also tell you not to assault people and you listen (I assume) despite it forcing you into a position you didn’t choose yourself.

Being an asshole isn’t something to be proud of just because you’re sticking it to some made up enemy. You’re choosing to let a made up enemy control you instead by fighting against them instead of making choices for yourself.

Are you hallucinating? What does anything you wrote have to do with what I said?

Maybe you should de-radicalize yourself, or idk, meet normal people irl.

I quoted exactly what I was referring to from your comment…

Also, you’re one to talk. How about trying to not use ad hominems to try to dismiss someone’s arguments just because you don’t want to listen. If you have an issue understanding something, you can ask. I didn’t say anything particularly complex though.

How is attempting to be polite radical? I’m not arguing I’m not “radicalized” (I pretty much am, and that’s not an insult), but this isn’t.

I think I have heard enough. Careful you might be a case for /c/meanwhileongrad

If you truly think I have to listen to you you’re more delusional than I thought. I believe in IDIC. Just because I don’t understand the way you think doesn’t mean you aren’t valuable.
