Is it just me or has the internet made people really weird, perverted, and anti social?

I think it exposes us regular folk to the weirdos where ordinarily we wouldn't know they exsist.

I also think it feeds the weirdos and makes them worse/more comfortable.

The internet has been good to me. I make money off it, met women off it and Ive learned so much in less time and no money.

It's what you make of it.

No .
Porn has been on the net since the late 90's.

Ppl keep bringing up all of these weird fetishes but the only way you would notice them is if you intentionally searched it up.
Majority of people irl are social and no problem conversing with a stranger.

The internet isn't the problem, people are the problem. It's so common to see people blaming the internet for their poor social skills or for them becoming addicted to something. The internet does not make or cause anyone to lose their social skills or develop depression. Having no self control and poor decision making is what causes people to lose their social skills, develop depression and an interest in disturbing content.

I was thinking about how cool and useful the internet could be for people who struggle with meeting others and socializing in person but people had to screw it up so now a lot of people can't even consider meeting others without worrying about getting murdered.

What's worse is your out and about with your friends and if you're not doing something active you're on your phone on the internet

No offense breh but don't you fit the mold of what you just described

 

[Athenna]

Dont google that btw.

I did it anyway.. Save me.

But I think it depends on how and who uses it. I won't lie, I've seen some fxcked up things on the Internet. I think some people show their true colors online since they think that they’re "anonymous" on the Internet.

It's just you. Weirdo

No.

I think that there have always been fukked up people out there, the internet just brings them closer and creates a more accessible environment.

The internet is funny like that cause any idea that can be conceived has a following.

It ain't the Internet's fault that you watch too much porn

I dont watch porn anymore or actively seek it out.

I used to be really into it around 2002-2011. Then i stopped cause it was warping my perceptions of reality.

Now i like looking at tasteful nudes of women or i just look at tame pictures of models cause i like to leave certain aspects of women to my own imagination so now its just subtle.

Ive probably made ten posts total in JBO. I just am disgusted by the whole porn culture between the racism in the industry, the violence, the degradation of women, the filthiness of it, etc. Im more turned off by it than turned on.

 

[Unknown Poster]

This. If I can break away from the filth anyone can.

Mind over matter. Some men are weak and fall victim to their own warped desires.
