    I make a new account every thousand comments or so specifically because I don’t want internet fame. But if I didn’t, I’d probably be recognized as that guy who says what he thinks even when he knows it won’t be popular. Then again, I filter content so aggressively to avoid threads where I’d be tempted to share those unpopular opinions that maybe I wouldn’t get recognized that much after all.

      I tend to keep a lot of opinions to myself and especially avoid charged threads too. But I just want to say you’re recognized and your opinions are appreciated. You debate thoughtfully and respectfully. We need more of yous on here.

      This is what I used to do on reddit but it pissed off the control freak mods so I’m afraid to do it here. But I should have limited my engagement like you’re doing instead of just showing up to places to keep doing “le epic hot takes” and be a stupid little main character
