I just got a ban for "encouraging violence". Someone asked "what will you do to celebrate when he dies?" Someone else started talking about how they have a fantasy about getting the death note and how they'd put that to use. I chimed in with my silly fantasy of using a seance to end politicians' careers by getting them possessed by the ghost of GG Allin, and enjoying the mayhem that would ensue.

So, anyway, right after that, I found out that all the people who were so transgressive to have actually liked that comment of mine can, as of a couple days ago, expect punishment as well. How draconian.

And so that was that. No sense in being lorded over on the internet by the same people who run HOAs. It'll be fun watching Reddit flush itself down the toilet from over here, I expect.

There’s definitely a change in the air. I’ve been downvoted to hell for the last week saying and doing the exact same things I’ve been saying and doing the entire time, making jokes at the expense of celebrities and being snarky in political subs. For some reason this week joking about how DJ Khalid doesn’t go down on women and offering non-destructive pro-tips for deflating tires is worth a bunch of downvotes.

I've recently seen people pretending that elon didn't throw a nazi salute.

Yeah wtf. Then they won't do it themselves on camera, they do some "my heart to yours" wave bullshit, not the hard point like he and Hitler did. Maga scum.

I tell them to try it at work in front of HR.

No question brigades will happen, but if lemmy can keep the bots out we'll be way ahead.
