it feels like there’s been such a change recently in like general internet culture to just a lack of empathy and an increase in blatantly dismissing people, like the whole “womp womp” trend that, like, it was funny but like there’s a limit ?? And the like “So sorry this happened to you! Can I use it for my oc lore? <3” copypasta on posts of people that were expressing genuine problems or traumas, also with how incredibly prevalent and normalised fatphobia and those sorts of jokes are in a way that feels so much more recent in online spaces?

Like people like to joke about 2020 and cancel culture and everything, and sure, like, it had its problems, but it also felt genuinely supportive and welcoming, and not so afraid to be genuine or nice or atleast polite and not openly rude to people??
