Wandering into spaces just to throw hands is usually the basis for most people getting banned or their comments deleted. The content of their commentary is usually notwithstanding at that point.

Hey, they’re just an r-word and Scandinavia enjoyer, with some light bannings attributed to transphobia and nazism. That’s not at all relevant when they’re out here in the wild trying to forge up some horseshoe theory!

For some people, Mr. Goebbels and Ms. Luxemburg really are indistinguishable.

You’ll scare the racist imperialists with that kind of density. One image of Country Joe waggling his fingers is enough as it is!

It’s essentially the Media Bias Fact Checker Bot as an integrated feature in the platform.

Well, you could play it out a bit from there.

If we tie it back to love of China and Uyghurs we could go with “If there’s a Uyghur genocide in China, then there’s also a Black genocide in America!”

Or maybe “How do you pose a country should respond to violent separatism and terrorist attacks?”

But then it all just pivots into Ukraine and Russia. First to accuse the other of serving Putin wins. (Or loses?)

Which then provokes a call to separate genocides into ones using bombs and bullets and ones that aren’t.

Which then circles on back to Palestine and Israel.

For true ouroubos debatelording.

Made me laugh.

The dynasty that ruled Moscovy and eventually crowned themselves Tsar of Russia were Kievan Rus. Not sure how they’d ‘take’ what they already were.

Reflecting pool between Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monument in Washington D.C. in the gal’dang U S of A.

Last month it was drained to be painted with a blue swimming pool liner.

Because that’s what you do when you’re losing another war in Asia.

For full effect you have to be high during the interview process as well.

I’m not sure what you mean with “walls listening in” when we’re talking about a public forum, but the doors are perfectly openable.

What I mean is the code infrastructure of the public forum doesn’t need to do what the users operating the platform do. These sorts of flags and tags for judgements on commentary have a direct impact on interactions between users, which is the door part of analogy.

Yeah, but let’s take a step back for a moment here and look at how the Fediverse is run by people. These communities and instances are all equipped to take action, moderate, curate, and create.

The people on the Fediverse are well equipped to grapple with the Paradox of Intolerance in a public forum without the walls listening in and making decisions about doors.

The omissions in this timeline about brigading sockpuppets and falsified nazi smears…

But to list that timeline and act as though this is out of context or unrelated to an ongoing crashout… we are reaching some Hasan’s dog collar level of bullshit.

It’s just an armband. You know. To help with context.

Innit.

There’s some neurotoxins that can get you with shellfish and such.

I remember 90’s era Starbucks and a bunch were still pretty grungy corners of strip malls. But the point was they were still coffeeshops, despite being a chain that went corporate.

Now they’re glorified coffee stands with real estate baggage and little sandwiches. And zero of that ‘third place’ shit they used to dominate the market.
