People online aren't the most well adjusted in the first place, so perhaps it's just a matter of weirdos congregating and egging others on into more extreme and absurd beliefs?
Most people online or not have extreme beliefs and even superstitious beliefs. Most just won't admit it or keep it to themselves. Including successful people. Let's be frank, how many successful and well adjusted people do you know honestly and not just "people you agree with " equating to well adjusted? I'm sure it's slim.
To some degree I think there's jealousy at play. The type of people to rant about the jews, gays, alcohol, media, or anything modern online aren't the type enjoying their lives or having much fun, so they want to deny fun to everyone else. A crab bucket situation if you will.
Or they can pinpoint statistically a frequent occurrence and notice a pattern. A conclusion based on repeated evidence and occurrence. Funny how they 90's adhered to all sides of life and was far more successful for most people compared to today.
Perhaps they're just majorly autistic and simply want everything to conform to a very strict set of rules because otherwise they have difficulty navigating the world around them and want to blame everything else for their failure.
Funny how most people whether having "fun" or not these days and yet most everyone is failing these days and not just in western societies. Funny how that works. Hedonism, debauchery, mindless indulgence, "Coomerism" obvious pinnacles of mankind at least how it sounds to what you're trying to present or pretend.
I'm not a leftie, just calling out what I've continually witnessed online for years now. Unlike rightwingers online, e-communists are far easier to ignore and thus less annoying to me as a result.
Of course let me guess, a centrist, or so called centrist who just takes an anti-right persuasion like every other left leaner pretending not to be? Ah yes, they are easiest to ignore when they constantly harass people but I bet they are harder to ignore in real life via politically. So how's that price of food, still the same? Darn those mal adjusted right winger extremist fighting against artificial inflation progression, how could those fools not understand I like paying more money for a few loafs of bread?
You know the exact sort of person I'm talking about, they aren't the finest specimens.
Neither are most left leaners, or centrist. Almost like most people bullshit about being some major success. People who are well adjusted don't have to put on a pretense of calling themselves as such or try to demoralize others or accuse others of being as such. Even then many "successful people" are also mal adjusted looking at some of the most prominent lolcows, and rich weirdos around. Of course your view is based on not actually knowing the targets you make proclamations about but that would require actually knowing something in depth and that defies modern progress of being ignorant and foolish because it's cool and whacky and wild.
Better adjusted, more social, better educated, more successful people, or often just people who get to have fun experiences they don't.
Ah yes, the druggies, the illegals who can barely talk to citizens, the crime filled ghetto walkers, and the single mothers who can't find no man are certainly fine upstanding citizens and should be held with great regard. They are so fun causing the costs of everything to rise, paying more in wanton indulgence= Well adjusted citizen. You sound very qualified at judging and are by no means bias in your claims.
Gen Z/Y right wingers online always have this sense of bitterness about them when it comes to their peers and it's not subtle.
Most intelligent people shun a less intelligent society that brings down everyone's livelihood with mental illness, obesity, over indulgence, and ignorance. Charles Dickens if I recall also warned of such people, guess he was just a bitter mal-adjusted loser too. Something something wants and ignorance bringing doom.
Is a pride flag co-opting, or just where modern culture is these days? Society has become more accepting of sexual minorities over the last 100 years, so it shouldn't surprise anyone anymore when they see a pride flag, especially during June.
Ah yes, do go on about all the sexual minorities society is becoming tolerant too, I'm sure there are some very great types listed in there. Maps and more are surely well adjusted with their pushing duh progress in the west.
I've been called a furry degen more times than I can count on here and I really couldn't care less if someone does.
I'm sure that's why you made mention of it. Totally don't need some baby powder for those metaphorical welts it left you with.
Or A&N if you're the right wing loser type I was talking about of course. They don't really like when people invade their safe space with alternative opinions.
Funny because they still debate the opposition opinion. Sounds like you just didn't like people not agreeing in A &N with some dumb statement that you found unironically profound. Also as I recall you were usually on the defense in the topics I remember seeing you in or just saying some absurd nonsense and being mocked for it.
I don't hate these people, I'm just bewildered they get so attached to extreme right wing politics. Normal, well adjusted people don't end up on the extreme right side of the spectrum calling for the deaths of jews, gays, and such.
Or straights, or whites, or normal people, or etc. And being disgusted with Jewish/gay groups/etc. coordinated actions or pushes doesn't mean you want them killed, aside from that since you seem not to understand nuance, most people aren't serious or are talking out in anger, something a well adjusted person would clearly understand with standard social skills. I'm sure you're just pretending not to understand this, right?
Do people end up on the extreme left? Some do, but that isn't what this is about and I never denied that.
Then why the focus? Let's be more clear many do, but if you don't have a problem with them like the leftist communist who is causing your price of bread in REAL FUCKING LIFE (Capped for emphasis) to go up then of course you won't find them to be an issue. Willful blindness for I'm sure more than obvious reasons despite the denial.
Or A&N if you're the right wing loser type I was talking about of course. They don't really like when people invade their safe space with alternative opinions.
Funny, I haven't seen that, but I have seen leftist and others coward at fear of getting their arguments and ego's torn within the same posts and responses. Weird pattern I'm noticing. Let's not forget running to mama/papa Janny like a well adjusted individual.
I don't hate these people, I'm just bewildered they get so attached to extreme right wing politics. Normal, well adjusted people don't end up on the extreme right side of the spectrum calling for the deaths of jews, gays, and such.
Sure they do. Most normal people call for the death of their bosses behind closed doors or talk about strangling their mother in laws who is pissing them off, or even kicking someone's ass all the time. If you haven't seen people like that you either don't talk to many people and are terminally online or lying. You tell me?
Politically though? I don't really have a political home. I find most parties and politicians have at least a few good ideas, regardless of where they sit on the political spectrum. I will say I think the party system is bad for everyone, I'd much rather consensus style governments.
You mean like democracies. Man I called it.
Who knew furries had so much power as to play an important role in bringing down the west. I bet downfall all started when those naughty women showed their ankles right? Actually some Kiwis would actually agree with that so don't answer.
Death by a thousand cuts. Lastly too hyperbolic. Let alone are we going to ignore the impact of single mother hood on increases of less successful people in the world in general or is it easier to cherry pick low hanging fruit arguments on the actual arguments presented?
I am willing to engage with some questions, but not others. People online have this incredible ability to ignore the subject/point at hand and focus on the person who made it, making the entire discussion about said person.
Motivation of an argument is an important aspect of an argument and where certain credence's lie, and or biases.
Nothing meaningful is added to this discussion if I talk about my personal politics, and seeing as Kiwis don't all exist within the same nation? It's almost pointless.
It goes to show state of mind, and presentation as mentioned a second ago. I can understand being against PLing for obvious reasons, but it has a very valid reason in any discussion. If someone presented an argument about Jews causing issues in western society who is more likely to get you to listen, A neo-Nazi, another guy who gets a lot of things right, or some Jewish man? they would probably register more credence depending on circumstance if arguing the same thing which is obvious.
IRL my views would be considered sane by the vast majority. I am specifically talking about the type of loser online who goes to extreme right wing politics. The online nazis, the trad larping types, the ones who want to return to the past, the ones who reject basic social progress, the ones who openly call for the death of people they find disagreeable or "degenerate".
That's what every insane person says with little to no credibility. It also depends on what majority you are standing in, go tell that to people in Africa general population vs. America and you'll get quite a different reciprocation. The one's who "want to return to the past" see an era that had success based on pattern results, compared to modernity where everything is either shit tier, low trust (AKA: Mal Adjusted society production), or worse, but yes those people are the problem not those leading to an irresponsible society derelict on its duties and barely functioning properly.
What I should have said is "Why do so many losers online gravitate to /pol/ style politics?".
"Everything I don't like about certain arguments are based from /pol/ arguments." So how many people have you asked where they get their ideas from? I know it's basically zero, but I figured it couldn't hurt to ask.
I have dealt with many black people, they were always fine.
Dealt!=/=Lived!
Funny how many black people who I know live in black neighborhoods are always on edge having weapons ready even around their basic neighbors. Know a few car thieves myself, very respectable black men, they laugh at my jokes so that makes them well adjusted, right? How well do you know those fine black people you deal with or is it just a fist bump and you can't even tell me how many letters are in their name "closeness"?
I wonder what would happen if every black American was replaced with a gypsy tomorrow. How would Americans cope?
What would happen if both were just sent packing how would America cope with that loss of fine people you dealt with? I'm sure we'd be missing a large amount of well adjusted Americans/westerners.
You've done exactly what I predicted you would, congrats on proving me right.
It's because you've done this routine before and someone did or said the most reasonable reaction/thing, it's not the mic drop you think it is. Well adjusted guy asks why 2+2=5, loser tells him 2+2=4, well adjusted man says he knew loser would prove him right with what he would say. Of course.

If not bait, then you lack either debate experience or real social experience as a "well adjusted online person", or hopefully this whole topic is merely a simple bait joke. Personally I find it a funny topic either way.
