I just got a ban for “encouraging violence”. Someone asked “what will you do to celebrate when he dies?” Someone else started talking about how they have a fantasy about getting the death note and how they’d put that to use. I chimed in with my silly fantasy of using a seance to end politicians’ careers by getting them possessed by the ghost of GG Allin, and enjoying the mayhem that would ensue.

So, anyway, right after that, I found out that all the people who were so transgressive to have actually liked that comment of mine can, as of a couple days ago, expect punishment as well. How draconian.

And so that was that. No sense in being lorded over on the internet by the same people who run HOAs. It’ll be fun watching Reddit flush itself down the toilet from over here, I expect.

      Yeah calling people “LGTV+” people sounds like an attack to me. How about you just call people how they ask to be called as a matter of basic decency and respect for others? Costs you nothing.

          Because lgbt people just want respect and MAGA are fascists who don’t respect anyone and thus don’t deserve any respect people can’t stop being lgbt but people can stop being fascists.

          Being lgbt is not an “extreme”

          Being a fascist piece of shit is.

            Imagining David Attenborough narrating the “Enlightened Centrist” for us.

            The centrist believes there are two sides, that most must pick between one or the other. This leads the colourblind centrist to sit the “middle ground,” mistaking cowardice for choice.

      I learned a new slur today. Thanks, you just ruined my television. Also, being gay = fascism, now. Apparently.

      i genuinely wonder, how are you different from “maga idiots” if you think supporting lgbt+ people is an extremist position?

      Imagine believing that language is static, or that people shouldn’t ask others to use different words if they find the ones in use hurtful.

      you know, i never considered it before now, the 1% are minorities of a sort. Just not the ones that suffer anything.
