Its been shit since covid. Everyone constantly online, and really ramping up the stupid as fuck culture wars. “Back in my day” I could log into a chat room, have some fun conversations, and then log off without getting pissed off or pissed on. I could look at movie news, and not be swapped by performative hate or praise for whatever fucking movie is or isnt “woke”.

Everywhere you go, you see “Be civil” or “Be respectful”. But all that really means is, dont question out echo chamber. And if you do, well, turns out not being civil towards you doesnt count.

Left and right doesnt matter. Its all hate and performative praise as far as the eye can see.
