i would. so i am either better or worse than you

Yes, you would.

Being a normoid is its own form of mental illness.

It's too deterministic

Normies harm others, I harm myself. Better to be a normie than mentally ill.

>>756345
True!

As in the French revolutionary song "Ça Ira" it says:

Le vrai catéchisme nous instruira,
Et l'affreux fanatisme s'éteindra.
Pour être à la loi docile

The true catechism shall instruct us, and the awful fanaticism of being obedient to the law shall be snuffed out!

I was alredy mentally ill and not adapted to society, I don't blame imageboards, stop blaming the internet for being a freak, you were already a freak, take responsibility for that and move on, it's ok to be a freak, own it.

Chans just gave me a space and a ""social media"" experience as a loser autistic outcast

This.
It’s like how people wanna blame social media or iPads for youth dysfunction despite having the same things before them. I think people have no sincere self awareness

>>756460
there is no disfunction, kids don't wanna sit in school listening to some loser teacher say bullshit, it was always like this.

bart simpson existed before social media, gen Z is bart simpson.

I’m talking about kids being restless in class. I’m talking about how adults blame electronics for any child’s flaws/nuances.

Also, kids used to be allowed more playtime in schools before the 2000s. They cut recess time to make more time for benchmark test learning

I was a normie, then I became mentally ill, then I started using imageboards.

non stop assrape

People have literally measured this. Modern teenagers self-harm more, report more suicidal ideation to counselors, have less close friends and socialize less in person. The Internet isn't necessarily the cause but you can't just sit there pretending nothing has ever changed just because "youth in the past were dysfunctional too" or some similar flattening of reality.

> stop blaming the internet for being a freak, you were already a freak,
the mode of production determines our particular form of maladjustment. What has changed about late capitalist society that causes severe alienation?
>take responsibility for that and move on, it's ok to be a freak, own it.
neoliberal individualist ideology places the burden of resolving contradictions on the individual. Instead of DOING THE WORK to become a resilient neoliberal subject, you should DO THE REVOLUTIONARY WORK and [redacted] to become a [redacted]. Forget about Oprah self help, go read Greta

"TikTok is bad for you!" - finance imperialists who are demolishing public commons to build real estate in your country just as they have destroyed playgrounds and movie theaters and "third spaces" in Palestine

That's due to harsher laws being passed to diminish youth autonomy.
Helicopter parents and stranger danger.
"Muh brain development" is especially being promoted to further disenfranchise young people from dating, politics, and careers.

Also, in the past, childrens welfare was not taken as seriously.
Kids used to be bullied and molested and adults dismissed children's woes as exaggeration.

This. The same people who obsess over TikTok, using it as the scapegoat for all current year problems overlook other shit

This is actual braindead thinking, jfc.

Everyone and their mom parrots "TikTok bad" to the point of using it as virtue signaling.

Imageboards are more touch. The real braindead take is sympathizing 4chan.
