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.

I mean, if we're bringing back child labor, debtor's prisons aren't a huge leap.

[–] Baguette@lemm.ee 2 points 18 minutes ago

I mean debtor prisons are basically just involuntary prison labor, which the US already has. Not really a leap, considering you can get arrested for legitimately anything.

I mean, it kind of is.

Debtor's prisons were never fair, but at least it usually involved adults who made their own choices.

Kids can't legally consent to anything - though I'm sure the republicans want to change that too.
