We die all the fucked up things in the early internet. Things that are now forgotten. Theres not much that kids these can do on the internet that we didn't. The main difference now is the nazi pipeline. We didn't have that.

Honestly. Many things were so much better before.
If you didn't like it on the internet, you could just not use it. Nowadays everyone with a pulse is forced to be on the internet, even if they shouldn't.
People used to understand that things existing digitally, meant that they would spread on the internet. Including and especially incriminating stuff. Trolling people who where clueless used to be fun too. The iOS7 update campaign where people were stupid enough to microwave their phones to charge them was incredibly funny.
There wasn't karmawhoring or attention seeking, in fact you would be chastised for acting like you wanted attention.

I’m so glad I didn’t participate in any of these trends when I was that age. So many regrets avoided.

Yeah probably some people at bell labs bullied some people in Stanford over ARPANET in the 1970s
And knowing nothing else about the situation; i can tell you the 'people' at stanford deserved it.

Will it overflow? Will we have a -32768chan?

That didn't sound right, so I looked it up: Moot is a millennial. 4Chan's got nothing to do with GenX.

Technically Patrick is still correct. There are way more younger generations doing more fucked up shit than us. Yeah, we had fucked up shit, but there was fewer of us so the volume of fucked up shit is significantly lower
He didn't say we didn't have any just that we had less.

"invented online bullying" yeah sure technically correct but people have bullied each other literally forever so to act like that's a millennial thing is really dumb

Remember that the front page of reddit had jailbait and coontown posts hitting the top regularly. After that it was fatpeoplehate.
People were just as deranged back in the day it just manifested more aggressively.
In the cod4 days id regularly scream slurs at people and tell them to kill themselves. It was just what you did.
