    If they’re getting massively negatively voted on and also being ratioed, we should probably leave them up in my humble opinion.

      Pretty sure I am at this point. Yoghaus or however it’s spelled must suck Putin’s dick or something. Funny thing is he accused me of being xenophobic after I said China should probably back up their previous claims of stealth fighter detection before claiming their newest system makes stealth fighters 60,000 times easier to detect. Actual words in the article lmao.

    There is a messy, toxic, indistinguishable difference between russian propaganda and right-wing propaganda, to the point that I don’t know which is a subset of which anymore.

    It has no science, no reason, no ethics, no morals, no decency, it will also engage in divide-and-conquer bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRiTe concern trolling at full blast.

    What kind of broken, fucked-up people are these, pushing this shit online? These people are terminally miserable, unhappy, they will not be cured, and all they want is to drag the rest of the world down with them. They want more and MORE of what keeps the world miserable.

    There’s also a constant stench of angry fear and fearful anger around the supporters of right-wing excrement. The human primate CAN transcend its’ fear of that death which it can vaguely visualize ahead of time, but these cowardly fucktards refuse to turn and face the truth, refuse to open their firmly-shut eyes even just a little bit, and in the process they bring us all closer to death, towards precisely that which they most fear, stupid motherfuckers that they are.

      Friend I’m here to shit post and be glorious. I thoroughly enjoy picking apart their arguments and making them sound like 2-year-olds. When I walk them through the logical conclusions of their world view. Personally, I think we need to bring back public shaming in the western world.

        Unfortunately this isn’t possible in their sandbox. They will knock down your sandcastle and kick the sand in your eyes. Best you can do is to stop interacting with them and leave them on their own island.

      @Forester@yiffit.net has the right idea. The most normal person reading an ugly post should see an educated reply. When radicalism is entirely unchecked, it has a greater potential to sway moderate people.

      I block nothing and no one. If bad stuff* exists, I want to see it and provide counterpoints.

      It’s unfortunate that the extremists can block everyone who contradicts them. They can force echo chambers upon the community.

      *no gore though

    Folks really don’t understand that your meme is in praise of said admins denying your cathartic Internet warrior moment. Because they’re Internet warriors off fighting unrelated battles. Whole situation here is multilayered.

        Ah, I failed the joke. I’m saying that moderation feels like I’m getting bonked on the head rather than carefully being removed.

          Oh the entire post has been nuked at this point so like it’s just gone reduced to atoms. My comments were not deleted. They still exist but there’s no post that they’re attached to… I just never got to send my Magnum opus.

    This is one instance in which deleting the thread is the best course of action. Many more people will see the gross but concise lies condensed in a post title than read your 3 paragraphs of corrections and sources

    Edit: in fact, it is so clearly the best approach that I feel like your post must be malicious in nature.

      I agree with your first paragraph, but not your edit. People just get attached to their comments. Nobody wants to see their (at least in their opinion) meticulously thought out debunk slamdunk of a comment ending up hidden or deleted. Even more so if making said comment took time and research for sources etc.

      Maybe you just misunderstand the meme. I have no problem that it was deleted. That’s why it’s titled. I guess I should just type faster

      As far as I’m concerned, thread being deleted was the admin picking them up and throwing them in the trash after me and five other people beat them to a pulp in the comments first. I just wish I got my final word in so he could read it.

    Are we talking about those stupid “Biden evil” political cartoons that popped up recently? It looked like your standard newspaper editorial style cartoon, but was repeating some anti-Biden propaganda in a “first they came for the…” rant.

    Can’t find them now, must have been nuked/hidden. Was going to debunk, but would of taken 3 paragraphs like the OP said.
