“The internet back then was beautiful and innocent and simpler”

I mean yeah if you ignore the shit ton of homophobia, transphobia, racism, sexism, ableism, all that shit, and if you were a white cishet able-bodied dude, sure it definitely was simple and beautiful for you cause your eyes lit up with excitement while you sat there calling people all kinds of slurs.

#people who say this shit we’re definitely the ones spreading that bigotry #you have to be really fucking ignorant to say that the early days of the internet were simpler #they were not #I got told I put chicken grease in my hair at eleven years old #I was also forced to see all kinds of antiblackness in the comment section of youtube #and calling people gay as an insult was very popular #and many other things
