This war shows just how broken social media has become — The global town square is in ruins::The global town square is in ruins.

      Whatever helps you self soothe kid.

      But the funniest part of all of this, is that I wasn’t even talking about Andrew Tate supporters. They were an example of the embarrassingly stupid shit that people believe, despite your claims that the internet has made everybody better informed than pre-internet relics.

      And I could pull out 100 more examples. They supported a president that suggested injecting bleach or “finding a way to get sunlight inside the body” as potential COVID cures both before and after. They’ve literally killed people based on the cold-reading of a shit-tier, 4chan Nostradamus. There are people who genuinely believe the earth is flat. There is a sitting politician that talks about “Jewish space lasers” and “peach tree dishes” and people donate money to help her keep her job.

      But you can’t, because you don’t actually know shit about the world before the internet, the people who lived in it or if the claims about them you pulled from your ass will hold up to even the slightest scrutiny.

          What is this, early 2000s internet?

          Wasn’t a thing on my 2000s internet. Maybe it’s just because you were 3?

          Fuck off dude, you’re irrelevant, stop acting like the world is ending because you could never figure out how to turn on a printer.

          I’m sure that would have really hurt my feelings if I knew absolutely nothing about myself.

          The world wasn’t better when you were young, your shitty attitude is evidence of that.

          Not a thing I actually claimed and not actually evidence of the thing I never claimed. Do you need me to put it in a Spongebob Squarepants meme for you?

              Your insults are even worse than your hot takes. Are you sure you want to branch out into armchair psychology as well?
