ever since i left fandom spaces i felt mentally better than i was for the past couple of months to perhaps 2 to 3 years or so mainly cause of the furry fandom but also because of fandom discourse appearing around the morality of drawings on my feed too as well as being on social media. i tried giving roblox fandoms a chance but i gave up and stuck to furry. but the amount of puritanism, reactionaries, and modern day burned furs in the fandom ruined my mental health further so i left the fandom and decided to focus on my interests ever since. i also quit social media as well, deleted my xitter account, and used tumblr and bluesky less now (not like i was planning to use the latter to begin with). i also left the art community as well despite me being an artist myself and put more focus on art as a hobby than as a commodity just to form an online platform. i’m still planning to have some sort of platform, but it will mostly be random stuff cause it’s my platform after all, and i can do whatever the fuck i want to do with it. esp if i gained 34k subscribers/followers (which i dont have but it would probably be interesting or nice to have at some point in the future). despite communities being a complicated topic and “it just depends idk man” thing cause niche communities tend to be way better in my experience. and art is a fun hobby or tool to entertain yourself and others. to me, it felt like modern day fandoms, art and bigger “communities” are a result of capitalism, and reactionary culture/sub cultures invading spaces, and fandoms started off in the past as something revolutionary a step towards feminism. but that’s just me i guess, and i don’t even know what the fuck am i talking about, im just a jaded retard on the internet using leftypol as a place to complain and share my struggles. what do i know much about politics anyways

>>719648why is it funny to see people on image boards pissing their pants over a couple words on a screen? its not that deep and nine out of ten times you’re falling for obvious ragebait or are a stupid person too busy trying to instigate shit further online instead of seeking employment
it seems like anon
>>719648 is against anti intellectualism but instead of being a well behaved human being and educating me they decided to crap their pants at words on a screen and invade my thread with an anime girl that appears to be drawn and a character from a franchise excusing “gatekeeping” things. i don’t even use social media anymore besides instagram just to talk to friends btw
>>719678>Wahh educate meAnd this uygha saying he isnt a child
>>719680are you really that pissed lmao. also believing your opponent is a child and overall assuming how old they are without proof is weird as fuck sorry not sorry
>>719652>I don't think the Black Panthers were debating over the politics of children's cartoons but I could be wrong. Nazis used cartoons as propaganda (as did the USA whose settler ghettos inspired Hitler)
>>719688and where are the black panthers now?
