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.

No more time for sorrow. Efforts to not live in a cesspool are futile in an oligarchy. Let's shame some people who deserve it.

try to never loose hope, and shaming people never brings anything other than personal satisfaction

[–] ruuster13@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You're incorrect. If it's actually felt, shame is the most powerful motivator for change. The personal satisfaction comes not from what the effort might accomplish, but from defending the ground you walk on when invaders try to tarnish its value. I will not let them enter every space I occupy and bloviate unchallenged.

that's fair, I was a bit shocked to see a post like this here, might block 4chan...

Shaming people is how we got were we are. It doesn't seem to be working.

The person who loves shame, sounds like they've been hurt. Consider the speaker might be biased.

Yes everyone; consider that every speaker might be biased.
