    Lies. Internet at first was just some mystical place accessed by expensive service. So even if it already existed it wasn’t full of twitter fake news etc as we know it. At most you had a peer to peer chat service and some weird class forum made by that one class nerd up until like 2006

        I wasn’t a nerd back then frankly. I mean it wasn’t good look for surviving the school. The only one was bullied like fuck

          ah. well, my commiserations, the us seems to thrive on pitting people against each other.

          anyways, my point is that usenet had every type of crank you can see these days on twitter. this is not new.

      reading your post gave me multiple kinds of whiplash

      are you, like, aware of the fact that there can be different ways experiences? for other people? that didn’t match whatever you went through?
