We've gone from nearly tearing ourselves apart to complete left unity for the sake of :sicko-yes: . Who knows, maybe this is a sign that we can grow the fuck up and work together irl too.
This is what happens irl too. Never heard one argument between an ML and anarchist when the cops were charging
I'm just glad the community has returned to what is undoubtedly our greatest strength, dunking on chuds. Although I do kinda miss the brigades of the Reddit days that didn't seem as bad
the warmth of my love for my comrades will keep me warm through the cold of winter
and also all the chud blood
you've been on the site for 5 months and this is your third post
I guess it's quality not quantity lol
ehh, it's not as user friendly as reddit on mobile so i only lurk here sometimes when i really miss chapo
the emoji looks like foreskin lol idk i mostly just wanted to see how my new pronouns flair looked like
When we face opposition we come together
When fascists face opposition they fall apart
I read this somehow as “when fascists come together, they fall apart”, somehow it still works.
they're seriously going home after the cops gave them like an hour to just fuck shit up and instead they ended up taking selfies.
No lie, i joined here a while back (after Reddit) and didnt check much until today. What happened yesterday?
To make it incredibly succinct,this community's proximity to the general Reddit crowd has always meant that a certain amount of latent problematic-ness has been present. Some of our adjacent communities are worse than ours of course (cough cough). Some users have felt put off by this, and the mods' want to stamp it out. This has caused some users to call the reaction out as "mod overreach" and whatever (classic subreddit drama stuff, what's new?). There's also some evidence that outsiders have taken advantage of the situation and amplified certain viewpoints to stir drama themselves.
Eh it's alright, we've gotten through bullshit like this before over the years
I think all of the infighting stemmed from a lack of news to follow. We didn't have anything to talk about and now we have :party-sicko:
With Biden coming into office, I think it will lend itself to more unifying topics to discuss angrily/comically together.
Honestly, chuds too.... I was a right winger at the beginning of the Obama admin and leftists w/ the Occupy movement were able make me at least a Dem Socialist.
Outright bigotry wasn't as prominent among conservatives back then as it is now, so I am not so sure how well that will work this go around, but it's possible that people will change. Some are too far gone though definitely.
haven't touched this hellsite in 3 months, care to fill me in ?
lots of drama, it doesn't matter except in its effects going forwards, which are not yet apparent but I hope ultimately positive
so basically don't worry about it. Unless you're a transphobe, then be afraid
oh no, you guys had 3months of pronouns discourse ? lmfaosksksksksksks
No, we've pretty much been united about pronouns since then, it's been lots of other stuff, with an indeterminate amount of it being astroturfed
