A community to discuss and oppose the USA's cultural imperialism, a bit like the .ml community NoYank, except with a better ideological basis and less reactionary mod. The name is just a suggestion and the exact scope can still be worked out.
I think OP is trying to distinguish that it's about culture rather than activism. Correct me if I'm wrong @Erika3sis@hexbear.net
Took me a while to realize NoYank wasn't an anti-masturbation community.
I assume antiseptic is a play on the Australian rhyming slang for Americans (septic and seppo)
Yank = septic tank = septic and seppo
It originates from WW2 when the US had a lot of troops in Australia and didn't really get on well.
Following the Battle of Brisbane, resentment towards American troops led to several smaller riots in Townsville, Rockhampton and Mount Isa. Similar riots in other states also followed: Melbourne on 1 December 1942, Bondi on 6 February 1943, Perth in January 1944 and Fremantle in April 1944.
People also go blind routinely misgendering others and downplaying racism. (check their modlog if you don't believe me.) Funny to see you here by the by.

Try again. I see a whole lot of reactionary sentiment about trans folk, minimization of race relation issues, being a general sanctimonious dickhead to all and sundry, and yes, a removal for misgendering in there. Man, it must be hardcoded in eurofash to be shit liars; must be right next to the colonizer gene.
You're telling on yourself.
You've already been demonstrated to be a bigoted sex pest creep, as already discussed by others in this thread, which should come as no surprise considering your previously demonstrated reductionist misanthropy while proselytizing for the imminent sapient ascension of your favorite treat printers.
In short, you're hard to distinguish from your fellow sex pest misanthrope Justin Roiland.
Get the fuck out of here, creep.
reactionary mod
I was wondering about this person, recognized their username (FrightfulHobgoblin), checked the modlog, wow, turns out they posted a good deal of racist and transphobic shit on their lemmy.ml account.
Absolutely hate it when people mix legitimate left-wing causes (anti-US imperialism) with reactionary bullshit like this. All it does is make those causes look worse.

"FrightfulHobgoblin" is also a full blown bazinga techbro cultist that believes a sufficient number of TI-88 calculators bolted together is a direct analogue for a human being.
They've stalked me across multiple threads before, on top of misgendering me, tryna play up the european equivalent of "drop the addy then" like they're really like that, and have tried to downplay both covid and euro crackery before. I haven't had one good interaction with them in twelve months time across two different accts.
I knew that computer touching misanthropic creep was one of the worst active users on the site, but what the fuck. I guess all those "humans are just sloshy meat computers and human consciousness is an illusion whatever the fuck that means" techbro sermons really got internalized and you weren't even a living feeling being to them.
I mean they're apparently some virulent strain of euro; I knew that was the case from line 0 lmfao
irish, unfortunately. gives us a bad name. they should really be sitebanned here. edit just saw they finally are banned. good riddance
Shot through an croí and you're to blame
You give Éire a bad name

I can only imagine what'd happen if that logical rational proselytizer of the Singularity(tm) saw the word "Romani" in a thread.
LMAO cracker done become mysteriously illiterate and lacking in memory when pressed, ain't that funnier than a fuck in a clown car
the modlog is plain as motherfuckin day, peckerwood

We already knew you were a reactionary piece of shit, so using the
gater tactic of sealioning (and ignoring any and all evidence that you've already received if it's inconvenient) is basic as fuck for you.https://hexbear.net/comment/5439393
NoYank's mod was banned from Hexbear yesterday, then unbanned today, and then I was myself banned from NoYank for pointing out that the mod had been unbanned from Hexbear, so that's basically why I'm making this request now.
The ideological basis of /c/antiseptic, by the way, at least if I'm the one to run this comm, would basically hold that (")American(") media and culture is not inherently bad, and non-(")American(") media and culture is not inherently good. Which is to say, it would follow my ideas of the "U-S-A (Usonian-Seppo-American) tripartite division", "bourgeois vs proletarian anti-English", "marked Americanness", "settler hemorrhage", and whatever other ideas I have floating around in my noggin to make sense of my peculiar existence as an American born and raised and still living in Europe. This, I think, is my "leg up" so to speak, compared to someone like Frightful Hobgoblin, who is just a regular-ass, relatively-privileged, titular-nationality European, whose understanding and critique of "America" can only go so deep.

That user is an insufferably arrogant and pretentious computer toucher of the highest order and one of my least favorite reminders that Hexbear is connected to a larger federated network.
I don't think it's comfortable or even safe to associate with people that see living human beings as only so much meat with crude computer hardware sloshing around in it.
You will be unbanned in 49 days or now if you promise to drop the vendetta.
California Ideology indoctrination usually doesn't wash out, but if it actually could and you found some vestiges of humanity and dropped your cryptofascist techbro power fantasies and acknowledged the validity of other human beings, maybe I could stop seeing you as the misanthropic piece of shit that you are in a few years or so after careful reconsideration.
Maybe.
But I doubt you have it in you.
LMAO ol' Frightful was saying I had a "vendetta"? A "vendetta" of all things? Now as far as I can remember, the comment that got me banned from NoYank said something like, "Look at that, Lemmy's number one 'antiseptic' is back in my feed posting some more quality Irish tunes. I thought you'd been banned permanently but apparently I'd misunderstood and that was only for a day. Despite yesterday's ordeal I'm still glad to see you back, fighting the good fight."
Frankly, even as I was writing that comment, a voice was telling me that I was being too lenient about things that I would normally consider unforgivable, that this cautious optimism and willingness to forgive I had was undue for the gravity of what had occurred and the repeated nature of the offenses... But it would seem that acknowledging that wrongdoings had taken place at all, was to the hobgoblin not lenient enough, as if they'd rather be seen as infallible than forgiven. What a dishonest soul!
The /r/truex subs were typically chuds making their own anti-woke copies of subs they got banned from for being too racist even for reddit
I'd lean towards just !noyank@hexbear.net
My reasons are three:
-
That's a reddit naming convention, emulating reddit culture
-
It signals forever to new users who didn't see the split that there was a split
-
Federation already gets the job done: distinguishes !noyank@hexbear.net from !noyank@lemmy.ml
-
NoYank's most notorious mod is the most
imaginable kind of computer toucher, too. No wonder they post so much racism and transphobia; a misanthrope that sees a bunch of TI-88s bolted together as at least as conscious and self-aware as a human being is likely to dehumanize others and be a general piece of shit.I'm starting to regret ever having a positive impression of ol' Frightful. Even after finding out about their bigotry, dogmatism, ignorance, liberalism, and general disagreeability, I still had a "kick the football" mentality about them, just because they're outspoken about one issue that matters a lot to me.
Alas, it would seem that being too forgiving is the deadliest yet also the commonest flaw a socialist can have...
The name is just a suggestion
The reddit one was called /r/RAAMACFYL , which is not very good.
YankFree was considered.
Before the mods ban you, how about you present us with some smug Eurofash wisdom and tell us all what you think of Romani people. That's usually a hit.
