Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
dude spoke no lies ngl, almost feel like the ableist part was put in to make him not likable
idk brainwroms be brainworms. there's plenty of people who are right about whitey and right about economics but haven't been made to reexamine the cultural osmosis take on geopolitics or other minoritized groups.
i mean we dont even know the context it was said in, if it was in the context of the person being physically abusive (it seems the comments were in reaction to something) i could understand the sentiment but still not like the phrasing.
also it feels weird to dig through a guys private texts for the past 10 years for the spectacle. im sure ive said things that would sound horrible to 99% of people if taken out of context from a private dm, especially stuff i said when i was much younger and pre-transition
TBH I think Ken probably just had to add some negative stuff after laying out the meat of this piece, because if he only included the positive stuff he'd get more FBI visits.
more fbi visits = more attention and money tbh. he should start talking about how great maoism is
