This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I mean it worked on me. Raised Republican, surrounded by Republicans my entire adolescence. Always voted Republican.

But then I discovered Digg after Kevin Rose talked about it on TechTV, and that changed everything for me. Then after Digg committed sudoku, I moved onto reddit, which further pulled me to the left. Now here I am on Lemmy, embarrassed with myself for being ignorant enough to actually believe that the Rs were the good guys for the first 25-some years of my life.

Point I'm making is that if I can change my ways, then others can too. The only people who vote R are either a. ignorant or b. evil. Those like me, who are the former of the two can change their ways. I don't think there's any hope for those who are a part of column B.
