Well now you've piqued my interest

Hmm.. I dont think this guy is a marxist-leninist-maoist

You talking about this posts?

I did not want to take further actions in that thread in general (for archival purposes), but I did take one action, which in retrospect was a mistake: I removed a comment which contained the hammer and sickle symbol. I ignorantly associated this symbolism with Kremlin propaganda, and the atrocities my own people suffered at the hands of the soviet union during the previous century. Many users (including hexbear users) correctly (and politely) pointed out to me in DMs that the symbol has a much broader use than just as the symbol of the USSR, and people elsewhere in the world may not associate it with the USSR at all. I am grateful for users who pointed this out to me without resorting to personal attacks.

I get hes not a leftist. But I feel like he gets a "one of the good ones" stickers.

Wait, for real? Thats a pretty dumb thing to say. I've seen him be fairly supportive of hexbear.

I saw a comment of him complaining about some Hexbear users calling him subhuman, which got unanimous support that its not okay. But even after that he told users to block individuals and he will not be defederating.

This was a small show with a local guy talking. He's bad at this and its sad to hear. Like you said, its sad to think this is what he chooses to do. He's filled with so much hatred that he can't even think straight. Meanwhile, blaming others for their hatred without a hint of irony.

People like Glen Beck are better about the grift. Hes been talking about his new book called "Dark Future". No idea what its fully about, but he talks about "the great reset" and the WEF's quote "you will own nothing and enjoy it". It sounds like Marxist theory, but framed like its a bad thing.

I think its important to know where the conservatives mindset is coming from. Part of it, I know I have to avoid some people like that first guy. He is unreasonable and is motivated by hatred, thats it. But the conservative laborers in my union who listen to Glen Beck? I feel like there's an avenue to convince them because their understanding of communism is based off a lie.

Failure to reform gains support for a revolution. Threat of a revolution makes reform possible. Realistically, they should go hand in hand.

Its probably a good label for me, I just don't like the word centrist lol.

For schools to buy the entire system. And its advertised right after stories of school shootings. Its really fucked up.

Our local radio stations have commercials for school security systems. Like a key card to access all the doors and the police are given key cards. Whenever a school shooting happens they come up in frequency again.

Wait, did I miss something? I'm from one of those "lib instances" and I'm not seeing anything about defederation.

My wife likes making potato tacos. Its just mashed potatoes in tortillas and you fry it in a pan with some oil. Throw on some hot sauce and they are great.

Last job was project manager in private sector. New job is design engineer in public sector. Both randomly drug test.

Moistcritikal might be in the "apolitical gamer" crowd but him and Sneako have some great drama between them.

The drama led to my all time favorite Charlie moment: https://youtu.be/gmp8O3aD4AM?si=HPP0ZWsFfj3ozvja
