This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I think people don't realize you're making fun of manosphere and alt right creators co opting the terms from the movies like red pill and others.

I think Flight Club is a better idea of the right people walking away with the wrong message.

RoboCop and Starship Troopers (by the same director, no less) are other examples of people completely missing the point, and taking the film at face value.

Starship troopers's point was missed by the same people making the sequels to it, I was so disappointed by the sequels, and don't understand how they could have been so oblivious.
