I have fond memories of being on the net during the oughts. It was before social media and the mentality of people only willing to talk to people like them and it was before the rise of (toxic) conspiracy theories, nonsense, and highly aggressive anti-intellectualism - and the list goes on. I also miss blogs. The good ones were like somebody showing you their private notebook. Oh, well. That's progress for you.
Back in the day if someone clowned on you for being a dummy it was a badge of shame. Now creeps online wear the "I'm a massive dumbass" hat with pride and love to tell you how ignorant they are.
And they are so proud of being racist and awful and obnoxious.
