Yknow what actually, instead of studying people on the internet behind our screen, creating ideas and stereotypes about people we never met , and using them as talking points or bait for attention, why don’t we focus on real-life connections rather than parasocial ones that would only matter to those who lack real connection.

Oh let people have fun damn party popper

Just like the parasocial relations are not serious. Lets be consistent with our logic!

Id love to know how saying it’s better to focus on real connections instead of parasocial ones is rage bait

Calling irl connections, ‘real’, is a ‘true Scotsman fallacy’. If you would have been a bum in the 90’s pissed at Apple stock going up, thinking the internet would never work you’d be getting cheered on.
In today’s world online connections are no less real. A relationship depends on the compatibility of the people, medium of said conversation is irrelevant.
Now, whether the ‘behaviour’ of the people who use the forum a lot, is healthy or unhealthy, depends on their life. Do they use the forum for enjoyment in their free time? Well they could be scrolling tiktok like 99% of the teenagers ik my age. I view the alternative in an equal light.
By thinking their relationships are inherently ‘parasocial’ you’re making stereotypes, you can’t go both ways.

Ye dude you can pretend the average Joe who scrolls tiktok and insta is the same as those who are addicted to forums and don’t leave the house but that’s a pure lie that makes low lives feel better about themselves.

Don’t worry I can tell because your point isn’t actually realistic it just is gonna soothe a tonne of feelings here

Nope I disagree. It’s like a large discord server or a group chat for people who are really into it.
I’ve talked to a couple of them, (who you would refer to as losers or whatever merely based off their online time) and they seem chill as per my assessment.
Real life is hardly as amenable to ready generalization as you purport.
My main issue is, you can’t have it both ways. Make a convincing argument without stereotyping, or otherwise, don’t make ‘guys pls don’t stereotype meee’ as your main moralfag appeal.
That’s just lazy

23 days online on a setting that has only been here for 90 days is mind boggling

Take the offence and keep quiet

So what ? I used to work on my computer and the site was just an open tap next to the other taps jfl, classic Ad Hominem fallacy
