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.

Gen X here and my boomer friends in US educational circles normally pointed out the Socrates quote but they stopped doing that a few years ago. Social media has devastated the ability of young Americans to think critically according to most.
I have to imagine it's because Socrates also believed that writing and reading information harmed our thinking. He thought that memory was the most important, and expected oral recollections of all his teachings.
...which definitely sounds like more criticism of youth ๐
