Having been here a while, I can say that we’ve apparently lost site of the roots of the community that originated on the subreddit, and while I don’t see a way to reverse this decline, I think it’s at least worth talking about.

Essentially the level and tenor of the discourse has altered dramatically; I’ve gone ahead and listed out the type and style of the high quality content we saw back on the day on the upper half of this diagram, and done what I could to contrast it with the sort of typical content and user type we see now. I think any objective observer will agree this is a downgrade.

Apologies for posting

This objection is child’s play.

This is content. But what sort of content? This is a post. But what is a post? The post is a relation which relates via posting to its own post, or it is that in the relation [which accounts for it] that the relation relates via posting to its own post; the post is not the relation but [consists in the fact] that the relation relates via posting to its own post. This is a synthesis of the infinite and the finite, of the temporal and the eternal, of freedom and necessity, in short it is a synthesis. A synthesis is a relation between two factors. So regarded, this is not yet a post.

Man invented post, and calls it god. “The Post World”, imposed by the hexbear, is synonymous with Peterson induced “Chaos World”. Both are most efficient mind enslavers, and humans know not their difference from “The Not-Posting World”, the creation principle of all that exist.
