  • What everyone else said.

    I’m also going to gently mention that Rule 2: “No defending oppressive systems or organizations” includes defending the Democratic Party, since this is a well-known and well-documented example of a destructive, genocidal, racist, and anti-queer organization, by any metric.

    Democrats and Republicans are on one side, the side opposed to anyone seeking communities based on compassion and equity.


  • Biden bragged about deporting even more than Trump, and do you think he closed the concentration camps? Harris ran on an anti-immigrant platform and even ran a wildly racist campaign ad. Obama was notorious for imprisoning and deporting Latinx immigrants. And Bill Clinton is solely responsible for spreading the concept of an “illegal immigrant” with his 1997 IIRIRA. Yes, Clinton is the one who did the kickoff for the anti-immigration trend we’ve been suffering under ever since.

    Maybe you’re young, maybe you don’t have family who are personally impacted, maybe you haven’t read history, but trust me when I say the Democrats are a racist party that fully subscribe to and act on using Eugenicist rhetoric as their platform. They are just as complicit as Republicans. (They just try to sound more polite so they don’t offend white liberals.)

    So to answer your question: Yes, it happened under Biden. The difference is liberals failed to speak against it (and in many cases even excused it) because the villain was wearing a blue tie.

    I can understand the concern about the suicidal person because that’s a sensitive topic that’s always difficult to approach. I can’t judge drag because I wasn’t there.

    Banning someone for encouraging violence against Nazis is suspect, though. What do they think we should do? Ask them politely to stop being Nazis? Lol

    Oh, I see now. It’s hard for me to see everything because drag’s screenshot is tiny, but I see in the modlog drag is banned from 196.

    As much as I enjoy the shitposts, 196 has always been a sort of milquetoast centrist community, even on reddit. I didn’t look at everything, so I can’t determine for certain if drag crossed a line, but what I saw as far down as I scrolled was just normal and healthy stuff like “we should kill Nazis.” That seems alright to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Let’s face it. The mods and admins have to make decisions they don’t necessarily agree with to protect the community. There are things I’d like to say that I don’t for this reason, though I too have had mod action against me in the past, as well as some communication from admins (which, for the record, was always professional and kind).

    That’s why I post my very hottest takes on my favorite CIA honeypot, tumblr.
