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.

Punching up is fine. Men run the world, and women are mistreated, often considered property (or we should "get back" to that time), so yeah, leave women out of this. We shouldn't punch down.
Edit: cool. In a post where we could have otherwise discussed healthcare of men in society, the above poster is the one who brought up women getting special treatment, but I'm the one who is the problem.
Okay
They're not punching at women, they're trying to point out a problem in western society: men with problems like these tend to struggle to find help compared to women.
Punching at a mentally unstable guy who's struggling with his health and personal life is not punching up either.
That's just being an asshole.
Punching up is not fine. Its a cope phrase people use to glaze over their shitty behaviour.
"Up" is so vague it can be anything.n
