    Have fun arguing with positions you’re making up for yourself.

    Oh the irony.

    I haven’t laughed at that sort of philosophy larping this hard in ages. “Cringe”, I believe is how the youth refers to the feeling that accompanied my laugh.

    What do you find so very incoherent about “the internet was not better in 1994”?

    You implied that the person I’m talking to isn’t ignoring reality they know exists, like the average speed of an Internet connection being 14kbit/s in 1994. Of course the internet was worse in 1994, and the “wild west” applied to ads and malware as well.

    It’s funny how big words you try using though, after not being able to even spell “gonorrhea” and not having the wits to check how it’s spelled when you write it and doing with “gonerea”, and, have, such weird, punctuation that makes, reading your, text very, weird. :D which makes the logical fallacy larping all the more hilarious via it’s pretentiousness.

    Your argument is essentially “people don’t remember bad things”. Mine is “people would prefer to ignore bad memories”, which is why he is “wearing rose coloured glasses” as I’m sure he still understands what the internet actually was like in 1994, and willfully ignores the negatives.
