i dont have much nice to say about u/liberalsocialist so i wont say much, but their presence here was entertaining and ill miss having their posts that were rich with comments

our loss of u/ides_of_merch however is a true tragedy. i was always so excited to see their BMF-esque posts, they were perfect. they got banned for sectarianism but i think it was a misunderstanding :(

    Ah man, at long last. I was waiting for that sanctimonious little lib to finally chew through their supply of good faith. Always acting like the kid in kindergarten who would kick you in the shins, then run and hide behind teacher's skirts. "I don't know why some people here are so mean to meee, I'm just asking questionss:kitty-cri-texas:"

    Ugh. Good riddance, redditor.

      libsocialist? more like libsanctimonious!

      seriously tho, they started so much shit here and since they seemed somewhat genuine mods would protect them. but how could you keep defending them after theyve started their 15th struggle session?

        Easy: power dynamics

          yeah i just looked through their post history :hahaha:

          i underestimated how much they posted (277 in 4 months). im surprised how many of these i missed, i liked keeping up with the libsoc saga. how could i have missed a libsoc gem like "was MLK a liberal?"

          yeah and theyre good for consistently correcting the ideas of comrades [insert quote from combat liberalism]. but one person constantly inciting them tarnishes their reputation, i know whenever i saw their name as the poster i would take them a bit less seriously. if theyre genuine, they will come back under a new acct and have a fresh start, i think that will be good for them and the community. if theyre not genuine theyll just get banned again :ban-hammer:

            Fair enough, I’m honestly not too familiar with the specifics in this case. Agreed that flaming/bad faith responses where people aren’t really reading or even trying to be responsive is poor content. Ok google add a spilled popcorn emoji. Delete text delete don’t send
