Is this … sarcasm?

I like it about the same. Maybe a tad more because some people I like are no longer banned or feel the need to censor.

I'm weird though. I like 4chan and find most social media today is too intolerant and authoritarian for my tastes.

Excuse me for thinking you a hypocrite. X.com is about as authoritarian as it gets. They have banned so many people.

Just an example ..

Maybe GP genuinely enjoys madness.
If you grew up with image boards in their heyday (pre-2004) then X could feel a bit nostalgic.

However the word filters (to suppress messages) does dampen it a bit.

I mean, is 4chan better than those image boards? or worse? how about 8chan
i mean have you seen Fox News?
