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.

is the phenomenon real? absolutely. is writing vague fake stories about how "This community is better than that other community. I went there, and I got downvoted even though I'm definitely right because I'm definitely an expert. Congratulations on being part of the smart community instead of the dumb one." also real? absolutely. The two things that make me think this is bullshit are:
"I'm definitely right because I'm an expert in that field. No I won't tell you what the field is."
174% of the time "I got banned for having the wrong opinion" translates to "I was a complete and utter shithead to everyone and now I'm trying to pretend the issue is what I said not how I said it."
My knowledge of echo chambers tells me that 2 is simply untrue
