This day and age, how does one not use the internet. Especially if one has been using it already for quite some time.

Not my problem, if they have problems that are exacerbated by the internet then they shouldn't use it. It's not a question of how can they live without it, it's something that they should be perfectly willing to do considering they hate being triggered so much. For example I loving love bread, it'd really suck if I had a gluten allergy and couldn't eat a nice sandwich made with my favourite wheat-flour bread but I would still much rather not eat that sandwich than get the stuffs or worse.

90%'s not an accurate figure, considering 90% of trigger warnings are for rape or Self Delete or death

Ignoring how that's blatantly wrong for a moment, that's still handicapped.

they are, that's the point

No.

you're broadening the issue again lol
it's not the internet as a whole, it's specific content that's traumatically offensive.
look, just don't put tw's on your content (it's not like you know anyone who would give a stuff anyway), i don't put tw's on mine either. just don't stuff on someone for taking .5 seconds to provide some extra comfort to people

Ignoring how that's blatantly wrong for a moment, that's still handicapped.
No.

well, no. i mean, at this point you're just objectively wrong.
i'm going to go out on a limb and say you don't actually know anyone who has these issues.


i reiterate: why waste your energy actively being a richard to people? it's so much easier to just let it be

only a lot of these "triggers" are just another way to attention whore. The internet is the best way to attention whore. Its not like a gluten allergy.

If these people quit the internet, they would loose the only attention they ever get.

[Taboo]

Feel free to try and back that up.

I do. I dated one even, until she turned out to be a loon. Nowadays I actively avoid them all because they're more trouble than they're worth.

[Daedalus]

they're more trouble than they're worth.

what a cynical worldview, and such a stressful way to live too
i'm so sorry

Feel free to try and back that up.

ask anyone who has this type of issue
engaging in triggering content = panic attack
it's pretty simple

[Tokthree]

you're broadening the issue again lol
it's not the internet as a whole, it's specific content that's traumatically offensive.

And where is that content found? On the internet. Where on the internet? Everywhere, you never know where it might show up! When can you find that content on the internet? Any time, you can never be sure when you might be triggered!

I'm not broadening the issue at all, I'm using common sense

[Taboo]

Bahaha, don't act like you're somehow better off than me for tolerating pussies. That's a terrible way to deny things.

okay let's break that argument down
that's like saying that because a city is riddled with crime, people who are worried about criminals should just leave instead of taking measures to prevent the crime
"there could be triggering content anywhere, so clearly the answer is to leave the entire internet"
i don't think you understand how important the internet is

Bahaha, don't act like you're somehow better off than me for tolerating pussies. That's a terrible way to deny things.

i'm legitimately sorry, you remind me of how i thought in middle school, when it was fun to be angry
i don't tolerate pussies, i just know a lot of good people who have issues and don't feel like making them have a bad time

[Starkiller]

Is this a three way argument?

[Daedalus]

Is this a three way argument?

tokthree and i are having something legitimate here, taboo's just being angry because he "can't tolerate pussies"

in fact let me retract my last statement
i do tolerate pussies

[Tokthree]

i don't think you understand how important the internet is

Well, I was under the impression that not being triggered would be equally as important, if not more important, considering that apparently when people are triggered they sometimes end up killing themselves.

Pardon me for not considering the internet to be more important than my own life and mental sanity.

there are safe spaces on the internet, you know
i agree with you, mental sanity should take high priority, but when it's as easy as making friends who are willing to stick a little #Self Delete tag on their tumblr posts, this stuff can be avoided

Why would I ever want to interact with someone like that?
Hell, why am I even wasting my time with you? At this point it's so obvious that you're a painfully delusional shill.

you're so angry lol, why
you somehow can't put together that people who have issues can be interesting, thoughtful, creative people too?
wow
enjoy living in your little bubble
in the words of patton oswalt, you're gonna miss everything cool and die angry
