Anonymity in this age is a gift of the divine. Do not squander it.
We're anonymous here because we're all afraid of each other. And that's a lot of fear.

Truer words. The feeling of being seen is tyrannical.

Looking at the dumpster fire that are social networks, I rather like this anti-social network.

I think this comment says more about you than it does about me/“us”.
If you are afraid of random internet users then best of luck with what else life has in store for you.

I’m not anonymous and have never been. you can Google my home address and phone number using my nickname only. I am not afraid of anyone.

I’m not afraid of you; I value my privacy. There’s a difference.
Why aren’t you practicing what you preach and post under your real name? Are you a scaredy cat?

This didn’t come off as preaching to me. But a self realization. I do think OP is confusing their own motivation for everyone else’s.
