So give up, just don’t do anything!

I know those weren’t your literal words, but that’s the sentiment.

It’s the only thing you can do at this point if you gave them your DNA, and it harms nobody to try.

Listing all the reasons not to bother just seems a bit pointless to me. Especially since they had no real reason to honor the request before.

A few years ago I purged my face book profile with a script that edited every post with lorem ipsum, and then deleted the content.

It was embarrassing seeing posts from 10-15 years ago. Jesus christ I was an idiot. I still am, but I was then too. (thanks mitch)

In 2022 I did the same to my reddit account.

Same reaction.

Although it was interesting to see my comments go backwards from “burn the system to the ground” to “we need to make a compromise and reach across the aisle” and then from “all religions should be allowed to die” to “Yay Jesus”

Like I said, I was a big dum

Oh god I would hate to see my YouTube comment history from my first account…

I saw the headline, my brain went “so he’s being held in contempt, as would any other person refusing to answer a question, right?”

Of course, I already knew the answer.

You first.

But seriously, it gets annoying, but at the same time it’s the biggest scam on the fediverse right now that I know of. So I feel like a little visibility once in awhile (not 6 times a day) that lets people know about it is fine.

To anyone who knows: is there a way to filter out usernames containing that name? Like if I could block dms from my chosen instance, that’d be great. I’ve been getting 2-3 a week.

Shit like this is why I donate to Wikipedia.

Fuck off and die, nazi scum.

I have a idea. We do our own scream test.

Let’s turn his brain off permanently.

And we Don’t bother listening for anyone complaining about it.

It’s the perfect plan.

I’ve just taken to saying “provide me with evidence or shut the fuck up” usually followed closely by “how about one that’s from multiple independent sources and not from a fox opinion piece or personal blog”

Apparently that sort of thinking makes you a teenager with no world experience. At least that’s what I’ve been told I sound like.

The moral high road is filled with corpses.

random

It’s not random. It’s definitely purposeful.

I do understand what you are saying.

Soon you can’t even safely upvote without expecting a random ban.

Someone yesterday ot the day before posted a screenshot of their ban for “up voting non-violent Luigi content”

The ban said “although you didn’t post the bad content you up voted it and that’s bad and you’re bad”

Here are your options:

Leave it alone.

Or go around.

Power move: come in and vomit on the boss’s desk, car, or their person.

“sorry, I was gonna go to the doctor but you know the rules”

Because mom would be sad and my dogs wouldn’t understand.

This one. Sorry for the confusion.

I am fully aware and believe there are people who can no longer exist/function in society today, and they absolutely should be reassesed with massive amounts of therapy and everything to try and reintegrate them, but not released after some arbitrary deadline.

I was simply pointing out a straw man when I saw it.

Why exclude “somewhat positive”?

Because they’re making their argument in bad faith, or they stopped after getting the part they wanted and didn’t bother looking any further.

Woah, that straw man came outta fuckin nowhere.

Don’t worry, someone will be along to claim it’s always been a CIA front.

Modern day nazis testing the waters.

You can check out any time you want.

But you can never leave.
