Why are you being charitable to a greentext poster lmfao. It's like when the skinhead starts saying dogwhistles and someone is like "well maybe he doesn't know it's a dog whistle".

Idk man, maybe you've not been exposed to enough 4chan.

    sure, let's just assume malice or ill intent whenever possible, and forget about any empathy or sympathy.

    Bro. We are talking about a 4chan greentext poster. What more do you want me to fucking say? Are you joking?

    i'm just tired of internet toxicity tbh. Not as in "Oh no, they laugh about Kirk's assasination", mind you, that shit is actually hillarious, neither i care about anyone's political oriantation as long as they're a decent human being. I'm talking about this unprompted toxic bullshit like "oh, they're using this site, they must be a jerk!". That's literally the same rhetoric that politicians use to create "us vs them" narrative, except they do it on another basis like nationality or whatever.

    Did your day go so wrong that you need to let it all out somehow, but this is the only way you found? Genuinely asking btw

    btw, just so you know, thanks to some particularily heated instances over here, i've seen people with opinion just like yours but about the fediverse.

    Let's not act like 4chan has ever been anything but a infamous shithole that attracts shitheads. It has the worst possible reputation: it doesn't attract good people. Sorry. You sound delightful, tho, all your pettiness and pretentiousness aside.

    so? Is this enough of a reason to spread it further? "Shitheads" aren't exclusive to 4chan, and you're microscopically close to being the live demonstration of this fect.

    I asked you if anything is wrong, because unlike you i don't want to fall into attribution bias and call someone a bad person simply because they behave like a jerk, everyone has bad days. Yet, you insist on keeying your way of thought, which is actually shitty and loathsome.

    I hope you exert this behaviour because you're just a spoiled edgy child, and not because you're so utterly fucked up by life that you actually became this hateful and bitter.

    please don't be like this and take care <3

    I just don't even know what to say to you. Do you understand that you are being the shithead? You're actively insulting me while all I'm pointing out is that incel-adjacent language being used in a notorious incel/extremist breeding ground is highly suspect? Jesus. Reread your post and realize that you are massively projecting onto me.

    Going to chime in here to say you're definitely the shithead here.

    Are you're one of the people that came to the fediverse because your Reddit account was banned?

    I'm not defending anyone. This story being made up is entirely possible. What I'm bothered by, and what i don't want to let slide is the fact that people just assume malice from a person simply because they made a post on a certain website and not the on the other one around. It's a scary tendency that, if extrapolated, makes internet into a place full of tribalism and hostility.

    Also, you gotta explain to me, how the post is an example of toxic masculinity, and exactly what archetype do i defend from your point of view.

    when you put it like this, it does sound fucked up. In the context of the post tho, percieved it more like the anon is telling that she's so uninterested in him that during all the time they known each other, she found a dozen of other sexual / romantic partners, without ever considering him as one, despite knowing he was into her, conciously manupulating him into staying, to keep him as a last resort.

    Surely, it wasn't put in words form in the nicest way possible, and if your interpretation is correct, he's far from a decent human being, but i can't say i have a much better impression about the girl in question either.

    i mean, of course. But i doubt the girl will step in and tell us her point of view. I'm judging this post purely as a work of fiction at face value, and not like the two of them are real humans I'm aquainted with.

    And yes, i agree that saying what he said is fucked up, but i can't tell, whether he said it out of frustration or because he's a mysoginist.

    I guess i just feel upset whenever i see garbage people, so i assume the better case whenever possible to retain my faith in humanity. Sorry about that.
