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:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Mutual aid in a nutshell.

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah, except he thinks this is a gang instead of just what happens when people respect each other in society and work together.

Did I just read a good greentext ?

[–] lowered_lifted@lemmy.blahaj.zone 42 points 1 week ago (1 children)

that's not a "street gang" it's called mutual aid. This is a really inspiring story. We keep us safe.

Street gang sounds cooler

You showed them humanity when most of the world doesn't. Of course they have your back.

Who is the mugger and who is the police? Who owns the store? Who said store can't sell old bread? Who enforces that?

What? You're taking this way too literally

Which board are these short stories usually on?

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago

We can't tell you because then you'll go there and we can't have that on our conscience.

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I was once like you, went on 4chan and it was full of porn and racists. There's no one specific board for this, you have to sift through the endless garbage to find these stories.

[–] fuzzzerd@programming.dev 9 points 1 week ago

Which is why these gain traction on link aggregators, because someone else did the hard work of sifting through the crap.

[–] Soulg@ani.social 5 points 1 week ago

Dunno if there's a new one for these but they generally are on /b/ or any of the other ones that are related to the subject matter i.e. cooking or anime

[–] rapchee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

it's not unlikely that this was made with some greentext image generator.
i thought i had a link, in some other conversation somebody provided one before, but now i can't find it
