I'm a borderline hikiko, neurodivergent and questioning queer. And yet out of all internet circles, I ended into the WORST sites to being my kind.
>Me. AMAB. Autistic and Adhd diagnosed at young age.
>Join internet around same time.
>Me and a best irl friend got in to the spooky dreaming game. We were like 11 or 12.
>Friend also becomes a brony (this is relevant thrust me)
>No access to TheHub. No ponies for me.
>Instead I kill time surfing the web.
>Somehow I got exposed to weirdos and cringe culture.
>For not being cringe, I went to theirs "serious" animation groups. (they spammed annoying JJBA memes)
>The groups turned into sites for the austrian painter enthusiasts.
>Tfw antiLGBT movements starts on my region, and my friend, who watched a show about being tolerant, becomes a LGBTphobe too.
>Torininguen and Uboas are near in my zone
>I isolate myself eveen more.
>I graduate from high school with school trauma
>I Become a NEET.
>Right after that. I started to question my identity.
>The realization that I was gaslighted to not be a "cringe SJW".
Now that I'm about to be 1/4 of a century. I feel like I lost my youthhood. Big chunk of it being wasted with chuds.
Worst part? I had the chance, I've could made a better choice, I've could just learned to pirate MLP FiM and talking about the show with my friend and join the fandom (at least the younger part of it), even if that friendship was doomed to not be magic anyway.
But no, my ass decided to go with the cringe culture r1ghtwe1ners. But if anything, I wish I didn't had contact with it in first place. I was young. And I needed a space to question. That was denied, and now I've been stuck on a questioning loop for nearly 7 years. I usually say I am genderqueer person. But still not sure.
Idk how it happened. I just want to go back, but that's impossible. But at least managed to survive the brainwash of the 2014-2016 antiSJW movements. For now I'll leave this post as a testimony of the chud experience I guess. Oh also why you shouldn't allow minors on the internet without supervision.

sorry buddy but i've never seen anyone actual have a distinct centrist ideology outside of complete apoliticism. and i doubt you're special enough to be the first.

>>8947I wish I had hung out with the irl drawfags and anime nerds growing up. Instead I dropped out of school after years of being barred from school by ableist adults so fell into a crowd of cringe terminally online gamers in other states I met through skype and vent. Big relate.

>>9247sure you aren't, doctor who proxy lmao. stop ban evading. also if you were actually able to read, i said i'm not a centrist, but that both sides are worthy of critique. Stick to magic and not debates, buddy.

>>9263Have you considered that multiple people might find your "both sides" larp irritating enough to comment on it?
No.9269
>>9266If you're not just one person samefagging then I'd like to point out the "anti-centrist" posters ITT are the only ones initiating hostilities and passive agressiveness to other posters completely unprovoked.
Aside maybe from that person grossed out at OPs writing style but that's why we got the guidelines there.
Make of it what you will.
No.9270
>>9269Believing in a perfect world with no aggression is pointless idealism. To make a better world you have to stop being such a doormat and stand up for yourself. Anything less is indicative of low self esteem, laziness or intentional misdirection. Being passive your entire life and trying to hear both sides without ever bringing ethics or your own moral compass into it is literally impossible and will only lead to bad things happening

Also what do you think of my fat FemPyro fanart???

>>9270Have you ever considered that I'm standing up for myself by not believing in your philosophical political alignment compass bullshit that permeates modern political discourse? And again, I have my own views and my own philosophy on life (I have plainly stated that I am not a centrist multiple times ITT, despite defending them and their right to exist) but I am far from "passive" or a "doormat", and my view isn't that both sides have a point, but that both are worthy of critique and mockery despite the occasional validity of their respective points. The mainstream examples of political discourse (especially within my own country) do not reflect my own moral compass and my own values nor do they make any attempt to appeal to the every day person, despite their claims. I could go on and give some examples but this isn't the website for this and I'd rather not turn this place into a political shitshow.
I do agree with op that there is a force online trying to forcefully get trans and gay people to conceal themselves and their hobbies through gaslighting (particularly vomitive shitholes like soyjak party, which even hate anime of all things despite deriving from imageboard culture that derived from 4chan that derived from 2chan that derived from net otaku culture, etc etc) but I also very much dislike the labeling and identity games I feel a lot of people play that feels like it categorizes people as if they are genres of music rather than human beings.

>>9273I was talking about why centrism is mockable, not you specifically. I apologize if I sounded a little personal there. Obviously there is criticism to be had on both the left and the right, but to insist they are the same or that they have the same beliefs is just insane (which is implied by believing they both hold the same amount of weight in terms of their arguments and beliefs, it's literally impossible to think both are equally valid ideas if you truly understand both as they are radically different)
Otherwise I agree, the internet has become a very strange place since 2016, and even stranger since 2020 and the advent of AI…
