Too few people realize this is actually the source of all the world's current problems. We never, ever should have let the normies on here.
They were even worse before the internet, it's hard to deal with but this isn't even close to as bad as humanity has been.
Why do you think they were worse before?
It seems like the Internet has allowed them to band together to reinforce and validate each other's stupidity. I think they're far bolder than before but I'm willing to change my mind.
Well mostly it comes from my memories of going to the pub before internet adoption was wide spread, Idiots were always the majority but you couldn't prove them wrong and it was difficult to find anyone that would dare express anything but the dumbest groupthink opinion. Like even as late as the start of the Iraq war the level of discourse was unimaginably dumb even compared to your average Facebook group today.
