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 don’t, without them you end up with twitter/facebook/garbage town websites filled with garbage
There are abusive mods on all platforms
Been on forums since 1999, really not that big of an issue tbh, it's a stupid website, who cares
Sometimes I post a comment on a website and it is moderated, how will I survive this, oh the pain of it all faints
No, because I like having conversations with people uninterrupted, when it gets removed and I have done nothing wrong, it is rude.
That's arguing there should be no police force in society of any kind, just because the current implementation is severely lacking in worthiness and accountability.
Even an anarchist association of communities would inevitably develop some sort of internal peacekeeping force simply because it is necessary for human civilization, and there is always potential for conflict. Human nature and all.
The closest thing an anarchist would ever advocate for in regards to an internal peacekeeping force would be some sort of community defense to defend against violent threats to community. But there would be ways to prevent it from becoming centralized and abusive. One way is by training everyone in the community in community defense and rotating the role. Their are other ways as well. But besides the point
I didn't say they shouldn't exist, just to be more regulation
