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:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I understand greentexts are misogynistic by nature, but wtf is wrong with this entire fucking website that this shit is what pops up first. The entire "joke" hinges on the idea that that woman's entire worth is tied into being pretty. This is not even casual sexism, that's ranked competitive sexism.
Also going by the comments some advanced morons here seem to unironically think that is actually how it works. Per twitch's own leaked financials pokimane did not make more money than her male counterparts (who no-one ever accused of abusing their pretty privilege). But she's a woman so of course her merit has to be scrutinized and her success has to be attributed to men. I suppose the idea that she has a large female audience has never even crossed the minds of the quadruple-chinned gremlins who upvote this garbage.
Uhh no, the joke is that a lot of men see women as objects and will watch her streams solely on the fact that she is a woman that they desire to bang. But yea, no matter what lens you look at it, it's patriarchy all the way down. I think watching and developing parasocial relationships with streamers, male or female, is pretty fuckin weird anyway.
It is weird in an understanble way. Homo sapiens is a pack animal. For most of our 300k years of history, we survived by forming tribes and being connected to each other. This is why rejection sucks at any context, be it romanic or employment or friendship.
Today, we are more alone and isolated than any time in history. It's understandable some lonely people are desperate enough to hang onto some simulacrum of connection.
That's a very charitable interpretation. Anon is a literal incel, he made a sexist joke, and I really don't think he (or you) has ever watched one of pokimane's streams because they're aggressively non-sexual. There are plenty of actual sex workers on twitch if that's your thing.
Has pokimane had her share of weirdos over the years? Sure, but it's really not that many people in absolute numbers and spreading naked incel propaganda is really fucking icky to me. Incel jokes aren't okay even if it's "humor". It normalizes this extreme misogyny, even if you say "it's okay we're laughing at anon".
