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.

If you don't believe a communist (or other non-capitalist) country exists then you have to admit that it's a population problem.

If you do believe a communist (or other non-capitalist) country exists then you have to admit that it's a population problem in those countries as well.

The very clear and obvious fact of the matter is more people will pollute more, less people will pollute less.

Also, no, I don't think only doctorates advance society. I personally think a small subsection of doctorates actually do tangible permanent good with their lives, not all of them. Probably evens itself out with the much smaller percentage of non-intellectuals who also do lasting good.
