I try and like every post because the like economy needs it. 

Unless it's really, really hurtful and mean and then I'll NOT like it.

A middle aged, CIS, white CEO of an insurance company gets assassinated and Nep has nothing to say??!?

[Uncle]

The gross shit potato and bootsthecat posted and the number of dummies who liked their posts is more than enough.

why don't you quote the posts you're crying about?

I mean you liked them dickhead.

what do you think is incorrect about what was posted? don't just be like blanket "this kind of speech is unacceptable," say what's wrong with it

it was probably arrived at through some kind of reasoning, like the idea that being born with XY chromosomes is a biological reality that makes you male

is that what you take issue with? the idea that sex and gender are two different things, and that it must be cruel to refer to someone by their sex when they prefer to go by the gender they feel?

Where was Nep during the time of the shooting? 

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

What's the problematic post? I hardly read what I like. 

[DavidCroquet]

I don't know about you all (and or gameboy, mostly gameboy dude), but I like indiscriminately as I go down the posts. Do yall actually like based on content?

Edit- John q so good.

I do!

but sometimes I like posts because I super disagree with them or think they are unfunny or have caused harm.

Schrodinger’s 👍.

There are no good billionaires, not sure why people believe otherwise.

You only get that much money by making way more from other people's labor than they do.

Just such an awful worldview to view success and passion as negative things.

These arseholes never seem to want to acknowledge the personal and professional risk involved in running a business. They think it's all just sitting back and collecting the rewards.

[kaleidoscopium]

Demonstrations- sudden mass swells of instictive yet justified outrage- are not the solution either. They can put a hurt on politicians and capitalists in the short-term, but in the long-term they fizzle out because there's no actual systemic organization and commitment behind them. People show up, and you're left with ten or twenty people who are genuinely radicalized to action, which is not enough.

We need to actually start taking lessons from civil rights activists and revolutionaries and start organizing alternative systems, safety nets, means of education, and contingencies while maintaining the fight on the political front. That's how you scare the powers that be. They don't give a fuck about some signs and they hardly give a fuck about how you vote. But actually organizing? It will scare the shit out of them.

User banned (1 month): Dismissing concerns around antisemitism. Account in junior phase

I don't know how many times I have to say this. Are you reading?

IT IS OK TO PROTEST ISRAEL

IT IS NOT OK TO SAY KILL ALL JEWS

Hasan Piker has not said "kill all Jews", but other people on Twitch have. The statement "there is no antisemitism on twitch, 100% of it is just pro-Israel people" is veiling a very real threat against Jewish people.

And I cannot even say, I hate what Israel is doing, I support a free and safe Palestinian people, but I'm also scared of antisemitic reprisal. Because this fucking absurd brigade that every accusation of antisemitism is just Jews who want to commit a genocide without reproach.

This is severely disordered thinking, and I think you should take some time to consider what you're doing here: coming into a conversation about a clear injustice, and bringing up the spectre of potential anti-Semitism that has no clear link to any of the people involved, including repeating straight up falsehoods about racial animus.

What do you want here? Are we supposed to stop talking about genocide and the ongoing attempts to stifle resistance against it until every person on the internet stops saying racist things?

User banned (3 months): Dismissing worries about antisemitism and concern trolling across multiple posts

"Black hate is real, so maybe Black people should stop fuelling it every day." Is that an ok thing to say?

No, because black people don't have an ethnostate that's ethnically cleansing an entire population. I'm not saying that Jews are the cause of anti-Semitism, but Israel's actions are clearly fuelling it. Or do you think it is a coincidence that anti-Semitism is on a rise right now?

All of the most aggressive anti-Israel voices I follow are Jewish. Two of them are my closest friends. Conflating Israel and Zionism with Judaism and Jews is far more anti-semitic and dangerous to the Jewish people than anything a Twitch streamer has said.

Are you Jewish?

Here's what's actually dangerous to the Jewish people: Dr. Claudine Gay, the former Harvard president, sitting in a congressional hearing and refusing to agree that calling for Jewish genocide was against Harvard's code of conduct.

Yeah the Brooklyn pogroms are totally imminent. Like I get my experience might be different as a Jew with no family in Israel but this is just hyperbolic to shut down any and all conversation about an actual genocide.

Nick Fuentes who we all know and love has called for Jews to be expelled from the United States. He attended a private dinner with Trump last year, at the invitation of Kanye West.

Please, stop. Go play a game. No one is after you. You and your family is fine.

About a year ago, 23andMe was hacked. Being an Ashkenazi Jew is something genetically detectable. A dataset consisting of the names and addresses of millions of Ashkenazi Jews was posted for sale on the dark web for millions of dollars.

Tell me, who would want to buy such a thing? For what purpose? Why would it be worth millions of dollars?

By the way the names of my family are on that list.

User Banned (1 Month): Islamophobic concern trolling over multiple posts

Yet some people voted for Trump hoping that for some reason he's going to make things better, despite supposedly being activists in US and having his previous term as example of his policies in the Middle East.

To Samraa Luqman, a Dearborn-based real estate agent and political activist, the shift was not a surprise.

Luqman, who describes herself as a left-leaning Democrat, said she campaigned for Biden's reelection last fall but switched sides after his administration failed to secure a cease-fire in Gaza.

"I [voted for Trump] primarily to exact accountability for the genocide, but also in hopes that it will be immediately stopped when he enters office," Luqman said in an interview with VOA.

Right, NYT Headline Feb. 1: "In news today, Trump didn't shit himself, fire off nukes, or saying anything overtly racist. Is today the day Trump truly became Presidential?"

The general media including the New York Times are garbage and some of us have been trying to explain that to people for at least a year here, and even gotten site-banned or thread-banned for it. So what's the point?

NYT is bad now?

How is misrepresenting moderation a bannable offense. Wouldn’t the reasonable action to take in the face of “misrepresentation” be for a mod to quote the post and provide a reason for why that poster is incorrect?

For fucks sake this stupid thread is moving too fucking fast. How am I supposed to ORGANISE my neighbourhood pod if y'all keep stranding marginalised folx like myself back 50 pages when I'm away. Typical white cis cunts pulling up the ladder from minorities.

To receive my forgiveness, y'all so called allies need to provide me with mutual aid. Kofi me $3000 for my survival fund and donate me a working car (NOT a 'Elon Musk presents Cybertruck', something with SOVL like a Nissan Versa). I will also need $300 for gunpla food as I cut off my stupid parents for not caring about the evils of thanksgiving. Typical crackers didn't care because they're not American, as if that is a valid excuse.

Time's ticking chuds. I expect it soon, otherwise you will have to live with blood on your hands.

If you don't want to acknowledge a trans person's pronouns you might be a jackass, but whatever, that's your prerogative. 

If you think trans women shouldn't be able to play women's sports, again, whatever, I can understand that perspective.

But gender disphoria is a real thing and there is a reason that suicide rates in the trans community are so high. There are a thousand things to make fun of era for, but it doesn't need to happen at the expense of basic human empathy. Despite the extreme victimhood nonsense that some of them perpetrate on Twitter, it's still a fact that trans people are some of the most marginalized on earth.

Diminishing them by stating that they're just pretending or will never be "real" men or women, or making fun of the marginalization they ensure is just gross ignorance. Laugh at the dumb shit they do, not who they are.

[Potato]

I'm more referring to people here calling them "chicks with dicks" or "pretending" in the name of dunking on those morons.

2. If you're going to dedicate yourself to being the drive by "The Bire used to be cool but is now Stormfront" guy, you need to start citing posts. This was outlined in the most recent Benji mandates. You've put us all in mortal danger; hope you're happy. 

The gross shit potato and bootsthecat posted and the number of dummies who liked their posts is more than enough.

Ok, please explain why what I posted is gross? 

If you want to delude yourself with the fantasy that someone is a woman just because they say they are, be my guest, but don't say it's gross shit to not think like that. 

Eat all of my arse thank you.

Edit: I see you explained yourself

Sure, gender dysphoria is real. Ok. Still doesn't make them a woman or a man. It makes them a trans woman or trans man and that distinction is important and will never disappear. 

I'm happy to entertain someone's pronouns. No skin off my nose. I don't think someone with the physical attributes provided by male puberty should be anywhere near women's sports.

You keep talking about marginalised people, but I'm not one to feel sorry for someone based on self-inflicted marginalisation. There's functional trans people out there (didn't one get elected recently?), so it doesn't seem to be a problem of being trans. You keep going on about emotive rubbish, suicide this, marginalised that. We're all a product of our choices, environment and genetics and that's just something trans people need to adapt to. I don't think they require any special treatment and the special treatment is probably what's fucking so many of them up...not dealing with their mental health issues.

Also, I don't have to recognise someone as a woman just because they say they are. If someone tells me a square is actually a circle, even though it's got four sides of equal length and four angles of 90 degrees, I'm not going to agree with them just to make them happy. You can call me ignorant all you want, but a square is a square and a circle a circle.

Since you're adamant that trans women are "real" women...would you fuck a trans woman (or trans man if you're gay)? Have you ever even been in that situation?

If you answer no to those questions, maybe you and I are not so much different.

Anyway, I will repeat my earlier statement. You may eat all of my arse.
