I can’t think of anything more 2024 than openly talking about having sexual intercourse with household objects but censoring the word “retard”.
Greentext
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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
funnily enough my (or your) instance filters out the word too
I switched over from your instance because of the censorship. It's infantilizing to cross out or add asterisks to such words.
agreed
Nah that's your instance. It shows up fine when I view it on mine, but when I go on your it does indeed say removed.
Awww
They went from 'toasters' to 'a toaster'. OP stopped slutting it up and found the toaster for them. How wholesome
It was definitely there before the internet, too. You just couldn't easily connect with other toaster fuckers.
No you couldn't...I connected with em perfectly fine
You must be a toaster
Being unable to find a group of enablers to reinforce each other's insanity is a good thing.
Having to have actual, real life humans as your social circle helps in actually socializing people. Like kittens who need other cats around to learn how to properly cat themselves. Without it they develop social issues or worse.
Sure, but it was internet that made these tiny scattered groups into large findable ones
Before the internet you would need to live near a proud and loud toaster fucker to find a group
Old furries in tech are in tech because they learnt and used early computer networks to connect with other furries
The toasters:
The Toasters
I had one of their cassettes back in the day! If i recall correctly, the last track on the album was called "T Time".
Porque No Los Dos?
Guy was white before he met them.
That has to be at least a quarter of the entire Warhammer 40k community.
fuck up your life
You see, the thing about that is you always hear about the guy who jerks off to r/dragonsfuckingcars and then does a mass shooting, but you never hear about the guy who goes to work in the morning, does an adequate job, comes home, jerks off to r/dragonsfuckingcars and then goes peacefully to sleep
ಠ_ಠ
found the /r/carsfuckingdragons guy
Thats just the Cult Mechanicus, wait till he finds out about Skiitari femboys fucking toasters.
Stupid sexy Cylons
Feels like I’m frakking nothing at all.
A metaphor for Alex Jones and his acolytes
and so many others online. there are so many very tight and close echo chambers, where people outright invent a new reality for themselves, and get angry, antagonistic towards actual reality
See: AntiVaxxers, NeoNazi's, and Flat Earthers.
at least before social media these nutbars stayed isolated and alone and couldn't get together and recruit / spread their messages easily.
I hate the censorship
Is he talking literally about toasters or using it as a slang for robots/androids?
It's an allegory for any "extremely niche" interest that would have been considered super weird before these people could easily find eachother, although OP probably had furries and people like that in mind.
It's 4chan. The dude literally wants to fuck toasters.
Like the cheap ones you get from the supermarket that break 3 weeks or the super expensive ones with very important blue LEDs on everything?
How do I know, mate? This is not 4chan, we're on Lemmy. I want to ~~fuck~~ install Linux.
Yeah, I've mostly heard this mentioned in reference to really obscure fetishes that you'd probably never have a chance to indulge in if it weren't for the internet.
I’ll take this one: It’s toasters
