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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If you do insist get offended by things other people say we're never going to get anywhere. It's not an okay thing to say but you're not the one saying it so it's fine.
It's only offensive to say it to someone, not offensive to acknowledge the word exists and is said by other people. Otherwise the news couldn't report on offensive things people did.
What needs to happen here is an injection of maturity into the conversation. You took effort to censor something that didn't need to be censored and are now arguing about it even though people are telling you it doesn't need to be censored.
I didn't censor anything. I am not the op and point of fact it would be censored on the news. And I'm so glad that you, the Arbiter of all things right and wrong and good and moral in the world, can sit here and tell me what does in fact need to be censored and when.
Hang on, where the hell do you get off claiming that I'm the one telling people how to behave, when you're the one advocating for censoring content that was not previously censored?
You're taking action to modify content. You're the one making the decision to censor a content instead of simply copying something as it already exists. By claiming that it should be censored, you are actively making a decision based on your personal morals. Would it not be better to simply display the content as it originally existed.
The media blur out this stuff out is because snowflakes like you would complain otherwise. But we're not the news over here, and we're not going to get shut down.
