Having been both an Edgy Internet Kid and a dreaded Social Justice Warrior I can categorically state that the latter garnered me ten times the opposition and personal attacks than the former ever did. So what I’m saying is that through years of research I can finally reveal that trying to better your social understanding and exercise compassion is much, much more controversial than being an asshole. Frankly at this point when I see stuff being intentionally aggressive and ‘edgy’ it just feels like the modern equivalent of playing it safe and trying to maximise marketability
