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.

could we maybe stop downvote bombing greentexts with takes we disagree with? 🙄
obviously the author has some toxic ass views but that doesn't mean it isn't an interesting/entertaining greentext to read
the only posts on this sublemmy that should get downvoted are irrelevant and/or boring greentexts
Next you're going to want us to stop downvoting unpopular opinions in the unpopular opinion community
If you don't want baffling, fucked up takes, then you don't want green texts, go to a microblogging community. I feel like the entire point of being here is to see the insanity without engaging with or or condoning it.
Am I so out of touch?
I've heard this place described as a zoo. We're just here to observe. Posts are not meant to endorse screeching, throwing poop, or whatever else anons might do.
On Reddit, it took very little time for the bigots to roll in and create a familiarly unpleasant atmosphere in /r/greentext. Downvotes are, perhaps, the lightest form of disagreement one could offer to a potential chink in lemmy’s armor against righties. The absence of chuds is a decent portion of why I love this place. If they find an “ironic” home here, as they did on reddit, it’d suck for me.
Okay this is a take I can understand and respect. That being said, how can we observe unhinged posts, acknowledge them as such, and have a laugh about them, while making it clear that they are unacceptable? This feels a difficult tightrope to walk, given the context
That’s the best part, exactly what we’ve been doing, no changes! Lemmy is so hostile to conservative ideologies and incapable of recognizing satire that it forms a decent barrier. Delightfully, we get to have our cake and eat it too! Accepting the downvotes as an aspect of our immunity, creating titles that point out OOP’s degeneracy, and banning every righty that pops out of the woodwork keeps us clean.
I know I can still act unhinged in this community, so it seems to be working out.
my sentiment precisely
It's the racism. You can be interested and entertained by it, but many people prefer not to condone it.
Welcome to Lemmy 🤣
This is not just a place for posting dumb shit but a place for activism, no bad thinking allowed
No, that's exactly what that means, in fact. Stop the bullshit.
