If so, was it polled somewhere?

    It’d be lovely if you could just see the hexbear powerusers somewhere convenient and mass block. I went through a couple subreddits of theirs, found the top posts, blocked everyone with more than 50 upvotes. Real pain in the ass, but I suddenly have far fewer teenagers who peaked in middle school debate club to deal with.

      This statement isn’t even internally consistent, are we teenagers or did we peak in middle school?

        You peaked in middle school, you’re now a depressed teenager in high school or therabouts.

        Try a little harder when trying to pose as a well intentioned and reasonable human.

          Civility is when I get to deride anyone who disagrees with me as a child and they are forbidden from saying anything mean in return

          Imagine typing the paragraph that came before this, and then going on to write and post this without detecting the irony

            Saying humans a lot makes other humans think the human saying humans is a well intentioned and reasonable human that just wants all other humans to be more reasonable and well intentioned humans. Humans. very-intelligent

            I make no such posturing, because I don’t give a rat’s ass what you think of me. I’m not dedicating my life’s work to… making other internet less pleasant for everyone else? Because you can’t possibly be so deluded as to think your actions as a whole are positive?

            Anyways, there’s no chance in hell lil smoothbrain me is going to convince any of you enlightened geniuses of our time to pull your heads out of your collective asses. I’m just annoyed you make the meme machine worse.

          Stop LARPing as a Silicon Valley logic machine. It’s creepy and cringe.

            Having other troglodytes upvote you doesn’t make you right monkeys, it makes you look transparent.
