I miss the old internet. I hate this shit. Centralized platforms. The internet used to be a place where you could escape the real world. Now we use the real world to escape the internet. For as much of part of my subculture is tied to it and some of my hobbies derived or learned from it, can it please go back somehow. I fucking hate this. I fucking hate the way people create communities with the mindset of using them as a currency or something to have greed over. Fuck all of you people that engage with the social tactic of shutting people out unless you can force them into a parasocial engagement as a means to force them through a filter or courted social practice. I'm disgusted. I already cPTSD and horrific nightmares that I'm amazed I wake up from. I fucking hate so much of this. Do they know I have cPTSD? No. Would it matter to them? No. They'd just ask for my work or how I did it and bugswat me away. The human element to the internet is gone. I hate anxiety. I hate all of this.
