sunnvale said it as if my grandpa was saying it, no need for plurals when simplicity is refreshing.

and who gets to set these standard behaviors and rules?


In a historical context, "The People" of every community set these standards. And they set them by treating those who break them like shit. Pretty silly question, to be honest.

Right now, the "standards" and "rules" aren't being set at a community level, they're being set at a social media level, by social media companies that are working hand in glove with the government. Effectively meaning your LGBTQAIIP+-&~^ or whatever the buzz term is "agenda" is being pushed by corporate millionaires/billionaires and the government itself.

Mussolini would be proud.

Correct and for those who don't understand... This is the argument "is the internet making people smarter or dumber"

Logically there are as El1te stated two sides to that topic.


the truth:

the internet is making the smarter people smarter, and making the dumber people dumber

you cannot escape Matthew's Law

Matthew's Law is pretty much the most proven and cemented social law in human history. It applies to absolutely everything because it isn't some metaphysical philosophy, it is purely statistical in nature.

Sure you can call it Matthew effect too. It comes from the gospel of Matthew.

you live in a money obsessed oligopoly... if you want societal standards to represent the will of "the people" you've got a long, tiring, and dangerous road ahead of you

And you're attempting to justify it. As I said, Mussolini would be proud.
