Zero Edge Most content consumption leads to anger, hate, and mental pain. Not consuming content leads to mellowness and peace but an uninformed stance. I used to think the world was "nice" and most people were "good" but it seems harder and harder to find those things I used to think. Is the internet just very good at highlighting the "edge cases". Does the internet accurately represent the world and its opinion as a whole or is it just edge case after edge case.

🐊 Andromeda Pie White people raped and pillaged the world for centuries. Now that we took their toys away they are throwing a hissy fit by being fascist right wing trolls. It's mainly white American men. Most people are alright. Don't let it get you down.

Zero Edge How can you weigh a person tho? Put your average person in a place of extreme power? How can anyone not be corrupt? Isn't that just part of human nature?

🐊 Andromeda Pie Maybe. Just focus your attention elsewhere. It sounds like you need a break. Indulge in the arts. Artists are crazy in a good way. Right now subreply is not a great place for your to be since it doesn't have curation or ability to block people. Stay away if it's better for your mental health.

Zero Edge Maybe the art is in the conversation. Instead of delete maybe engage? Instead of ignore maybe ask question? How can the world become a better place if no one is talking to each other? Where does a racist find his inspiration? Where is his root? What is wrong with conversation? Maybe I am crazy.. But maybe writing and conversation is an art form and not enough people recognize that.

🐊 Andromeda Pie You could try but I'd say it's a rookie mistake. They are trolls and there is a reason people say don't feed them. It only encourages them. I just tried an hour ago to no avail. Check my replies in my profile. If you assume sincerity on their part they will troll even harder. Kindness, trust, love are not values that they recognize

Zero Edge You're probably right. I wonder why it is so hard to reach out from your circle and try and see the other side..

🐊 Andromeda Pie They just don't want to. I have seen racists up close. They believe in some devilish worldview where their white seed must be passed on and must conquer the world. And right now trans people are just earning their social freedom so they can't stand it and have to bitch about it. 20 years back it was gay people.
