Wow I love the HN dynamic on this thread: [Grand-comment: TikTok is legendary and beautiful. The world unites!] [Parent-comment: OMG YUCK TikTok is the WORST because they are Nazis who are actively harming my favorite oppressed protected minority] [Comment: And not only that, but China will ruin us all!] [Very grey comment: Actually there's some nuance here and the thing you say is wrong, is in fact the very thing that draws people together in shared psyche groups] HN: where popular positivity is met with unremitting cynicism, fear-mongering and hatred. The Principle of Spree Speech: Not only do I disagree with you, but I disagree with you in the most horrible and vehement way possible. I render all your points null and bad because they emanate from a poisonous corruption that had the sheer nerve to look sideways at My Truth. All who gaze upon me, shall tremble, and they shall know my name is the Righteous One. Guffbert's Law of Internets: The extent to which one can express hatred, is also both the extent to which the one is right, and all other's are wrong. Pandybergh's Law of Speech Forums: When the internet reflects a reality that is more pleasant than the one known to the speaker, the speaker must punish that reality and prove that the world is in fact as hateful as the speaker has known it to be. Corollary: While simultaneously broadening the perspective of all participants, the internet mostly only succeeded in reinforcing people's already limited perspectives. The parable of the mustard beard: Do not go mellowly into that good forum, wag, wag your finger of blame and clench your jaws of hatred at all the nice things in the world from your rocking chair, grumpy old person with no name.
