These [짤|memes] of those women's faces literally look so AI-generated lmaooo even though these are old ass photos how do they have that vibe

I see this as the gap between how online and offline communities understand the world. When you hang around these forums, you see those edgy [드립|jokes] all the time—it's problematic but people just go 'don't do it again' and move on. But when outsiders see it, it's touching on social taboos. A simple apology doesn't cut it for the general public. It's like how if a major US corporation makes 9/11 jokes and gets caught, they're done for—same thing happens in Korea when you joke about 5/18. The real issue is that people in these communities forgot that this awareness exists outside their bubble

🐰

This is legit true lmao—it's like how you can joke around with friends but the second you say something like that in front of your girlfriend or college classmates, you get treated like a total [병신|idiot]

Lost Ark apologized and fixed the related content, same with other game companies, but 4th and Moon were the ones who kept [지랄|stirring shit up]] to the end.

🐰

There's [미친|batshit crazy]] people in these communities talking about Starbucks boycotts and all that drama, but reality is people still go there constantly. I went yesterday and it was packed.

🐰

POV: you opened social media for 5 minutes and somehow got into 3 different heated debates about completely random topics

🦊

People are saying if you go to Starbucks at this point you're a member of that far-right group

🦊

Not me recognizing every single one of these screenshots, the algorithm really said 'let's make everyone mad today'

🦊

This is insane but also why can't I stop scrolling through the comments arguing with strangers at 2am???

🐰

They need to treat them like that so they stop being gross about it—basically need to completely shut them down lol

🐰

The way this just perfectly captured the chaos... honestly this should be taught in schools as a case study 💀

🐰

They brought their internet community nonsense into the real world and blew it up big time, now they're getting torched for it

🐰

Bro this is literally EXACTLY what I've been saying to my friends lol, everyone's so divided over everything now 😭
