    Apparently drawing Mohammad is worse than a fucking pipe bomb. Thank God I have the self awareness to browse communities outside of my echo chamber. I wish they did too

    throwing a pipe bomb into an art contest

    incredibly good and based

    This is what happens when you become consumed by hatred. The most insane statements seem entirely reasonable to them, because they are blinded by fear and hate.

    @[email protected] I don’t think your post worked out too well 🐔

    also I want to point out the amazing differences between these communities. See, you’re very much, unapologetically, a tankie, but you’re fully allowed to comment and even engage in this community despite your farming and attempted framing that this community is extremist.

    Now, if we were to do the same, we’d be defederated. Which we were!

    Perhaps you should use the liberty this community has to actually ask for our opinions as opposed to fishing for responses. You’ll find we’re a very diverse community with many different opinions, some are even communists.

      I wouldn’t be fishing here if I wasn’t getting bites, and I wouldn’t have thought to dip my hook in the water if I hadn’t seen abundant signs of good fishing.

        I have, and I was, and no, I got perma’d. Four different users also attempted to dox me. I know since I was in their private chatrooms during the time. Seeing them get frustrated when they couldn’t do it was very entertaining. They even tried image meta-data, the poor things

        And my mask? I don’t have a mask. I’m very honest with my views and am willing to share them with anyone who wishes to know.

          Can people with views that differ my own have come to those views in an honest and reasoned fashion, even if I think they’re flawed?

          Nah, they’re definitely just bad faith fascists hiding their “power level”.

          Scary easy to see how easy you end up with thought police when people that think like this hold power.

          Welp, i guess there we have it. I’ve so far managed to avoid provoking them myself, cross my fingers I don’t get on their bad side.

              I have no way of knowing if that’s accurate, nor to i have any way of knowing what it was that got you perma’d.

              I probably wouldn’t say that, because the US defeated communism (according to their own accounting). I would tread lightly around anything I may not agree with them on, but I do happen to agree with them on a lot. At least most of them. Half of them. Maybe slightly less than a majority of them.

              What can I say, they aren’t a monolith.

          Maybe? You should go and try provoking them, see if they still treat you with civility.

          edit: goat is right, I was using sarcasm and did not indicate that clearly. I do not support going there to cause trouble, but you are absolutely allowed to go there and behave.

            No brigading. Brigading is a headache for both admins

            this community is an exception, although a rickety one

            I’ve seen how they behave on other instances, no way will they be polite and courteous when someone disagrees with them on home turf.

              You just gotta know which things you disagree on, and why they might strongly disagree with you, and not just say “fuck it, imma blast off”.

              If you go in wanting to make a point then yea. They will not be courteous.
