The three paths to think about this
1) - Full accountability
I feel like I am deflecting the terrible trajectory of course of events within my life on the fact that I discovered these forums rather than acknowledging the fact that I have maybe made some terrible decisions.
Maybe taking accountability is the first step to redemption, instead of finding for endless amounts of excuses. After all, I was only presented with information, it was what I chose to do with said information that truly caused a change within me.
2) - Partial Accountability ?
Discovering these forums only played a part in my mental and physical deterioration. They provided harmful, mysoginistic and LDAR/NEET content to me + conspiracy theories that ruined my ability to see the world with a normal world view.
I was also exposed to these communities while my brain was developing. That could have played a part in the way my brain structured socializing? Instead of hanging out with friends, a forum was my default for socialization because that was all I ever had ( I was a loner during school for some reason ).
3) - No accountability
Everything was the forums' and communities' fault. I was just unlucky enough to stumble across this.
What I chose as the most acceptable answer = Path 2
Why path 2? Because Path 2 provides a rational answer.
One dimensional answers always fall flat when it comes to social situations and philosophy because these areas are highly complex and are never black and white issues. Things like beauty, art, reasoning, philosophy etc.
What do you guys think?
