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.

I don't understand how that's supposed to work, you'd have to have posted some bad takes, and even if you did, "hey I made the wrong call based off what I believed at the time, I now understand where I was misled" isn't going to turn anyone against you.
It really only affects people who don't stand behind their words.
This would never work. It actually would 100% lead to being mass downvoted. Not just reddit, but here too.
exactly. I wonder sometimes at comments. People seem to have limited experience with other people here, and are overly optimistic about how reasonable and kind people are.... they are not. especially not in a social media setting.
The way to deal with that is to simply not care about down votes. They are meaningless.
You overestimate the average persons ability to read what you've written and interpret the meaning behind it. I have no doubt that plenty of people will read your comments from years ago and nail you to the wall over some gross misinterpretation of something that's not even remotely related to the topic at hand.
Some of it too is differing audiences/communities. You might tell a joke in front of your poker bros that you wouldn't tell in front of your kids ... and there's nothing wrong with that.
and for some folks the fact you pay poker or have kids make you irredeemably horrible person.
They've also got 10 other accounts to start piling on and hitting the down arrows, then the rest of the thread sees who the target is and joins in.
