This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Not saying the OP was banned fairly, but to do the devil's advocate, there's people with PHD in biology or medicine who still don't believe in Evolution. You can always find idiots with PHDs, even in their chosen fields.
I'll go ahead and say OP was probably banned fairly, judging solely by the fact that he willingly posts threads on 4chan
Anon probably used slurs and got banned for that
As someone with over a hundred banned reddit accounts, you generally don't get banned for disagreeing. So maybe not slurs, but maybe just general rude language. Or my personal favorite, bothering the mods.
Unless he's Richard Dawkins, people do get banned if they argue about biological sex.
Something like 1/5 of pharmacists believe homeopathy works. How the fuck can you go through that training and still believe in a hyperdilution that's magic if you shake it the right way and never ever touch it with your fingers because that takes the magic away?
(For those who are unfamiliar I'm not even being facetious, this is what homeopaths actually believe)
Placebo effect is powerful. They probably have lots of people saying X really helped with their cold/pain/cough/whatever.
Pharmacists and General practitioners believing in homeopathy. Physical Therapists believing in chiropractice. There’s way too many examples. But at least physical therapists don’t tend to have PHDs :D
I will never not be mad that chiropracticians have largely avoided the hunt for woo-woo magic crystal retards. Don't get me wrong, some people have managed to find treatment for chronic pain in things like acupuncture and chiropractic care that they couldn't get elsewhere, but most of the time this is presented as equal to physiotherapy despite lacking any scientific support, and the inability for "alternative medicine" to cure or permanently treat people.
