After getting banned from Twitter for calling a guy a cracker, I decided to spend more time here and good god my mental health has never been better.

    Same, actually. I never felt truly at home with what I thought was the left (libs). They always seemed too nice to the right, too soft on capitalism.

    I've learnt so much from the people here about organising and leftism and the world just... makes sense now.

    Also everyone here is funny as fuck :pickle-liz:

    my mental health has gotten worse since browsing this site but that's hist mat baby

    also this is like probably one of the few places left on the internet that is very low on toxic behavior, everywhere else is just a shithole now

    even 4chan could be comfy sometimes but past 2014 it and most of the internet is terrible and Nazi ified

    You're not allowed to call someone a cracker on Twitter? Fucks sake that is so lame.

    You can call people crackers here as much as you want comrade.

      If you think that's bad, the thread in question was about racism, they let 2 racist pedophile accounts keep their hateful filth near the top up, but my 3 vote Andy cracker bomb was unacceptable hate speech.

      My favorite is always going to be the fact that they Blue-Checked a fucking Darth Vader novelty account with no posts and Blue Lives Matter. That's beyond fucking parody.

    Same. I’ve been called a cracker here and I didn’t even ban them. Pretty solid setup tbh. Also Twitter is soul poison

    The more time I spend on reddit the angrier I am. Why do they talk in such weird ways? All the threads feel so petty and competitive

    As a 180% honky according to a DNA test, I approve of your judgment call.

    Right? Similar experience. Banning shitty people helps a lot.
