@mcc@mastodon.social A part of me wants to say that the Internet is good but social media is bad...but then I remembered Penny Arcade described this problem in 2004. Things only got a lot worse since then.

@Video_Game_King@mastodon.social @mcc@mastodon.social South Korea's experiment with "real-name" regulation proves it wrong (and was concluded a failure). It did not meaningfully decrease toxicity or hostility (made it considerably worse in other ways). China's Intranet demonstrates the same. At best it only exacerbates what is already there (instead of creating entirely new issues). Harassment got more personal with less anonymity, too.
