It’s weird. The simple fact of being watched and told what you can say. And the possibility that what you’re saying is being edited and what you’re hearing is edited too.

This strikes me as abhorrent. But most of the people here call it necessary, preferable and even desirable.

    It is 100% the conversational equivalent, surely

    We are watched. We are dictated to.

      You can have conversations IRL that nobody will monitor or have any record of. I swear, people these days have forgotten how to exist in the real world.

        There are some truly online takes out there, and this is definitely one of them.

        Buckle up, it’ll get worse from here as more people come over from reddit.
