The Online Reality Gap

[Jason Voorhees]

You really start to notice how far behind people here are compared to people IRL when you notice the massive disconnect in awareness, pace, and depth.

Endless recycled debates about pointless stuff and surface level takes dominate, while real life moves at a sharper speed with higher standards for knowledge, humor, and curiosity. IRL you encounter far more high agency, high information people operating on a completely different level. Once you see the gap, you can't unsee it tbh.


I always resisted the idea the main stream idea that this forum was full of basement dwellers idiots with warped views but this idea is increasingly becoming true and I do notice this contrast.

No shit, When you see tardos on here care about likes instead of posting whatever the fuck they want, you realize its full of ‘NEETER niggers

 

[uncykongrock]

Offline people seem pretty tarded these days but many here do too. Still on average I'd say here is smarter than the outside people.

 

[mr007]

You will find people in online debates who think they are smart and intelligent because they know about useless stuff that nobody cares about irl .


If your screen time is over 1 hour your life is worthless.

Top quality people are at higher positions .

While narcy incels try to justify online how superior they are .

This is even true with foids. Like the difference with how foids behave and are criticized online and how they behave irl is actually quite different tbh. They’re not nearly as awful irl (not saying they’re prefect, but it’s not nearly as bad).

I remember when you posted about ur GF’s reaction to learning about FDS. I assume that would be similar for the average foid

[Jason Voorhees]

true, irl if someone says some great information insight it's adopted and moved on fast, not circlejerked for the next 6 months. even a well thought out joke or paper, something like that

??? Literally 99% of humans live completely WORTHLESS lives, retard.

Why the hell do you think religion is such a huge thing?
We are just a bunch of hairless monkeys trying to cope with just how “superior” we are to other species, because we are able to write, read, do math and stuff, while being as insignificant as an ant to the rest of the universe.

completely depends on the circles you’re around

I think you just live in a bubble..

98% of the global population lives miserable lives where they are dependent on an average factory job on shifts (meaning when they get home they just sleep and wait for the next shift) / brain dead jobs that pay very little, they come home to their slightly fat LTB-MTB wives who haven't cared about how they look since they were 18, and spend the rest of their free time between home cores only on TikTok and FB, just waiting to retire, with no other aspirations and plans related to this universal existence..

If they have children, they just wait for them to turn 18 to throw them out of the house to a university or rent + average job, and they're done with them too..

For the majority of the population, life is very linear and it is almost impossible to deviate from it (when they do, they generally do it for the worse, addictions, tragedies, divorces, etc.)
