I have intellectually outpaced this website.
Every conversation I have feels like I am talking against a great wall of ignorance.
Every person I talk to feels like I am talking to people 10 years younger than me.
Where do I go from here?
4chan is the only home I know.

growing up is congregating with normalfags and realizing that a lot of them are kind of just the same as us and that its only our own narrow view of the world that makes us see them as generally kind of ignorant
you just need to learn to break that barrier of small talk over time and build trust enough to have serious friends

You joke but I realized like a decade ago I'm better, more savvy and smarter and more self aware than 90% of this website
Which is saying fuck all but still
In the face of shitty banal shitposting doomfags I kept faith.

I'm pretty sure I'm still above you. I've never met someone smarter than me on this site. At best I've met smart people with good, novel ideas that I've not thought about myself. Other places online I've only once or twice met someone who seemed smarter than me. You get a respect for them. Extremely rare.

dubs
i'm aging out. i'm at the very upper end of the age range of people who use imageboards and it's time to graduate. any post arguing that i'm an idiot and i deserve to be here is just a tsundere and you clearly desire a gay romance with me. not gay lol.

I consider myself fairly intelligent, but when I said "intellectually outpaced", I am not talking about how someone fares on an IQ test, I am talking about one's conduct in a conversation.
Often I find myself studying someone else's arguments, just to be reciprocated with snarky replies or replies that do not at all address anything I've been saying.
It feels like it doesn't matter how well you argue for anything.
Take this tail-end of a reply chain for instance,
>>16912555 (Me)
>>16912589 (Him)
I dismantle his claims, yet his only way of addressing anything I've said is to either barrage me with his next row of arguments in his script, or to force an ideological impasse,
>We operate on completely different levels of awareness, i am afraid.
He says.
Keep in mind that this is on the high-end of sophisticated conversations you can have on 4chan.
Most other conversations never get past three or four sentences of unproductive comments.
I can't count the number of times I was humiliated after my paragraphs of texts were met with reaction images, memes or sentences just meant to provoke you or judge your character.
This is also only one of several issues I have with the website's culture.
The tendency to gravitate towards group-think and general close-mindedness for all kinds of topics is also ruining my experience.

This is tangential, but I am no longer 'with it'
When I look at /v/'s catalog I just see children talking amongst themselves.
My brain immediately associates the memes and language they're using with platforms I innately detest for being actively destructive to public discourse (tiktok, twitter)
It also seems as though their opinions are directly fed from those platforms.
The obsession with crusading against porn, pedophilia and identity politics is pathological.
