Holy Bat Shit insane stuff

Aside from the various amoral monsters up at the top who just play the crowd for money and attention, like Milo Yiannopoulos, the average GGer seems to come from this same bleak profile again and again

Having finally pulled back the veil, he now is, rightfully, doubting what is and isn't real. It's scary to look at, and I sincerely hope it's enough of a wake up call for him to step back, put the whole thing behind him, focus on raising his kid, and in time, ease back into a normal life where he isn't constantly gas-lighted

I don't know that everyone in GG is in that deep, but even a relatively casual involvement has to have a terrible toll at this point.

There's too much obvious self-contradiction

What you mean like the poor oppressed people who need help on $3K+ a month ?

Early on, a GGer introduced the slogan "listen and believe" to the moment. It came from one of their many efforts to paint a target as irrational- Pretending a piece of advice on how to keep rape victims from being discredited like some religious proclamation.

Yes they're twisting Listen and Believe into being a GG thing now. And pushing it more. It should be Listen and be open minded. Not Listen and automatically believe and never accept challenges to the contrary.

As is the standard approach, a good chunk of GG opted to demonstrate the ridiculousness of this "mantra" by living it. If a GGer says it, treat it as truth. Never fact check, just pass it on.

Getting back on point, picture yourself as a GGer. You've been neck deep in this elaborate fiction for over a year. You know some of it is made up, but some of it MUST be real.

Half the people you've been told are trying to destroy you are fictional characters, one of your other friends created.

Yeh cause those people telling me to kill myself were totally just GG sockpuppets right lol ? The fact they had tumblr accounts going back years was just an elaborate set up.

The news stories you've been passing around as proof of some massive crisis are pure propaganda, pumped out by the same people surrounding you with this fictional cast that's drawn you into some weird culture war for a year.

The only real fix I can see is to treat these people like cultists.

Yeh I'm done. I'm fucking done with this whole false civility bullshit. I'm not playing nice anymore. They wanted a culture war. It's time for a culture war. I've been half assing it mostly but this shit. This shit right here. I'm done playing by their rules of false civility while being told to kill myself constantly. Fuck Anti GG.
