>>22530081This is related to my own confession. I used to browse this place often in my hunt for uncensored takes.
What I found is a lot of bad-faith takes, falseflagging, shitposting. There were some gems, but it exhausted me to try and find them between all the filth. Worse, as much as anonymity tries to negate groupthink, it... hasn't succeeded. There's still a lot of following the general crowd's thoughts, even if it's not as overt as upvotes or likes.
Some people would call me weak for letting the chaff shake me, but I think every word has an effect, no matter how much I try to deny it. The better I get at separating the garbage from the good faith, the worse I get at disconnecting from the prevailing humor. The culture seeps in.
It's tiring to try and get some interesting good-faith discussion here.
