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.

It's not necessarily bad takes it can be someone with an obsession trawling your history for oblique personal details or whatever. may only be a deterrent to tech illiterate stalkers but better than nothing imo

This sounds an awful lot like "think of the [irrelevant group used for leverage such as terrorists or babies]" arguments.

This largely has not been a problem, and so to loose something much more important for it seems absurd to me.

I mean it's also opt-in. If you're feeling civic minded you can just leave it on

Opt in or out makes no difference for its affects on being able to discern where someones opinions are coming from. "Just evaluate the arguments themselves" means trolls insta-win.
