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'm sorry but here is a prime example of the Republican party doing dishonest election tactics in Florida and the public masses falling for it. If you don't have enough common sense and fall for such tactics, who is to blame then? https://www.tampabay.com/opinion/2020/12/02/the-name-is-the-same-but-theyre-different-florida-candidates-column/

Most people assume politicians don’t lie. I know it’s absurd to think about but even people of middling intelligence still deserve rights.

I thought everyone heard the saying as a child to not trust lawyers, politicians, and weathermen because they all lie.

They do, but how many times do you need to stop someone from touching a hot stove before you let them learn their lesson the hard way?

We shouldn’t be willing to let the house burn down to teach someone a lesson.

Nothing can be done for years. Till the next election. We are just a long for the ride able to carry out the first amendment right at the very least.
