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.

A metaphor for Alex Jones and his acolytes
and so many others online. there are so many very tight and close echo chambers, where people outright invent a new reality for themselves, and get angry, antagonistic towards actual reality
See: AntiVaxxers, NeoNazi's, and Flat Earthers.
at least before social media these nutbars stayed isolated and alone and couldn't get together and recruit / spread their messages easily.
Though, on the other hand, thanks to the internet we also have more positive spaces now...
