"And you're the one with a warped view if you honestly don't think that digital vigilantism isn't the most fucked thing to happen in decades."

That's what you said and that's fundamentally absurd. Again, it's not simply being against digital vigilantism and pointless, destructive, holier than thou behavior. I'm pretty sure the Chapo Traphouse guys hate that stuff and they are certainly left wing. It's calling it the worst thing to happen to society that is right wing framing.

Saying that implies that we need to focus on getting people to stop calling out other people on Twitter rather than focusing on things that "rival" digital vigilantism. They don't rival it, they are real world problems and digital vigilantism does not affect what the vast majority of people do irl, while everything I listed controls our lives. Saying that's the worst thing happening leads to exactly the type of narrow grievance politics that drives the right today where people are brought in by obsession with cancel culture and then vote for a party that turns around and strips their healthcare. They love that shit.

I said culturally and regarding discourse. I don't know why you're quoting "rival," when clearly I was implying the examples you gave were beyond cultural or conversational.

And yes, it DOES affect every thing I do in my personal life, honestly. I'm in constant fear of other humans whenever I'm outside or in public.
