so does bluesky just have so many rules that by design anyone can be banned for anything at any time?

looking up this reddit post people are saying he was banned multiple times and his "friends" on the bluesky admin team keep letting him back in...sounds more like 10,000 reports add up to an auto-ban or something and they're realizing the reports are fraudulent and he's done nothing wrong and unbanning him

because their examples of his supposedly rule breaking posts are the most innocuous shit ever, statements like "wow, these people are doing some mental gymnastics about my presence here"

6. Is white-adjacent cishet male.
7. Head of billion dollar corporation.
8. Millions in compensation.
9. Investments in AI.

Case against:

You're making it really hard to be on this forum.

Case Against:

Don't gun down people.

You're making it really hard to be on this forum.

Don't tone police marginalized people taking direct action against their oppressors. You're siding with the powerful against the people right now, chud. Libs like you are exactly why I have to beg for donations to eat, especially when I sleep through my mom calling me for dinner and miss it.

Why not just block him?



I'm just asking questions.

I think it's insane how a couple of Era users are downplaying murder like it's some household chore.

What does "Nobody who says "just asking questions" is doing it in good faith" actually mean? Just asking questions.

are there conservatives tut-tutting too?

Abso-fucking-lutely they are lol. "I can't believe the left is celebrating the murder of a CEO!!" is a common refrain from the Ben Shapiro types.

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

Tut-tutting is a left and right thing, not a morality thing.

If the best that TikTok can do with mods is Fiction… no wonder why is getting worse than Twitter.

Fiction, you are a grown up to take your opinions from people from TikTok. You are not 10.

A bigoted gunman with an axe to grind gets locked up, but it's the minimum wage worker who turned him in who is in the wrong because they should have had full confidence that the cold blooded killer would stop there lmfao

[benji]

We are still talking about murder. I don't believe a normal human would be able to plan out a murder and go through with it.

You seem to not know many humans.

Luigi shouldn't let his ego get too inflated over this internet reception.

If he had died on an imploding submarine, this exact same audience would be laughing* their asses off.

Spoiler:  (click to show)(click to hide)

*the word "laughing" here used as shorthand to mean: playing some sort of weird internet game of "meanest spirited and most callous joker" where everyone participating is compulsively refreshing their browser while wearing a stonyfaced and mirthless expression.

Much like The Bire, now that I think about it. But we are better than Those People, obviously.

At least The Bire is prepared to admit it's an arsehole site full of arseholes doing arsehole things...

everyone here is nice 

If that was the case, all of my arse would have been eaten by now and someone would have posted hog...

[Potato]

This larping is silly. We all know they would report it for a shot at 50k.

I'd report it for free because it's my duty as a good person. 

They'd report it for some V-bucks and a Pokemon happy meal

The current theory I’m seeing is this guy had a debilitating back injury from surfing, had a botched (?) surgery, on lots of painkillers, sought alternatives like ayahuasca, lost contact with family and friends, and reemerged to kill the CEO? As much as his online history points to libertarian tech guy, it doesn’t seem politically motivated in the way people oddly wanted it to be.

Maybe let people have something inspiring and positive in this unending exhausting hellworld. An example of basic human decency we can get comfy in.

I feel you. My cat is in the ER as we speak with heart failure, and I honestly kind of think that if she goes, I don't really have much of a point in living anymore. She's kinda the only thing I have in my life right now and she's so young. If she's gone, it kinda feels like what little fire is left in me will just fizzle out.

Jesus man, get therapy

*Planetsmasher responds with story about how a therapist stabbed him once*

Uhhhh actually when he took psych 101 the whole class clapped and carl and siggy would have basically told him he should be a therapist

RE in the "I begrudgingly condone reporting a murderer" phase

I'm going to post an unpopular take about the money.

Not suggesting that I'd take it. I'd don't think I would. I come from the "mind your own business" school of living.

But I can understand why a boomer at McDonalds might. And it has a lot to do with them not living online.

Now, I'm college educated. I enjoy a job that underpays me but engages me in the field that I love. And through it I enjoy a decently middle class life. And even considering that…50k would pay my rent for 2 years minimum. Would it be enough for me to snitch? Most likely not, but it's not nothing.

Put yourself in the mindset of a boomer eating at a McDonald's in fucking Altoona. That two all-beef patties special sauce lettuce cheese pickles onions on a sesame seed bun probably isn't enough to make them feel very privileged. They're likely also not hyper online and following CEO Robin Hood's every move while hanging all the hope of a class war on his shoulder. They're regular people, probably only knowing this guy's face BECAUSE a 50k bounty's been put on it.

What does not turning them on do for their lives? What does it change? Do they gain anything from not doing it? What isn't fanfiction here?

Again, not the move I would have made, but I get it.

Is he seriously college educated?

Bro, he literally told you his alma mater in case anyone doubted his academic credentials; he majored in Keeping It Real with a final dissertation on Will Smiths Boyhood

What does "Nobody who says "just asking questions" is doing it in good faith" actually mean? Just asking questions.

The Socratic Method is a known alt-right tactic, like reading and listening to classical music

Well the CEO thread just went nuclear. Dudes are now ok with Obama being smoked in the street.

My issue is more that women are out here saying they want him to blow out their backs and it’s super insensitive given what we know.

A lot of the best informed posters on there tell me that the current President of the United States is actively carrying out a genocide. And that the incoming one is going to do even more of them. So surely...
