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.

I mean it's classic Orwellianism to make up wild claims so that they seem normal when you do it. It's also called hypernormalization. Say crazy outlandish thing that doesn't exist. Then when it happens no one is surprised. The Big Lie. Etc.
I still remember conspiracy theory that we are ruled by pedophiles....
In early 2000s....
In 2020s this is a well know, properly documented fact.
Casting couch jokes... Were not jokes either...
Mass government surveillance without warrants... Also a know fact ... Now
All of these were "conspiracies"

Regime propganda appratus can't even keep its narrative straight anymore but sadest part is that with polarization, they don't have to. Normies will larp their team no matter what, like docile dogs
It is disgusting seeing what should adult people behave in such a way. Caring more about politics than people around them
So we really got the rulers we deserve as a body of people.
Also on the Californian side you had the sugar shack where all classic rock superstars went to do the exact same thing.
We often forget that the hippie scene was predominantly white, male, and came from privileged backgrounds. That's the only demographic that was liberated by the freedom movement. Same with the NY arty scene.
I want to believe they're not that common anymore but who the fuck knows honestly
