Other people have already confirmed he was a racist, but think Clinical Xenophobe is a more apt distinction. He was a unconformable around minorities, but he was also unconformable about the ocean and the color violet. And he wrote about his discomfort. He didn’t write political manifests. This isn’t a case of separating the art from the artist, but seeing the art to see the broken person behind it.

That one was full mask off. Couldn’t be explained by someone trolling. Couldn’t even be explained by a profit motive. Just an attention seeking child.

especially since most other people would probably be less effort to track down.

I have politically active friends who are supposedly privacy minded blasting their takes on facebook and complaining when they get banned for inciting violence. Most people are terrible at this and the algos the feds use probably aren’t that great. I’m more likely to get grabbed randomly.

I’ve always isolated my username from irl stuff and I don’t make any social media posts from my irl stuff. You’d have to be very interested in me specifically and I’ve always tried to be slightly less noisy then the background noise.

now your opinions are based on that bad experience instead of reality.

The fuck does this mean? How is my experience not reality? What else are my opinions suppose to be based on, if not my experience?

Reddit was showing signs of introducing a more algo based experience, so I fucked off. They would hardly be the first website I left because of shit like that.

I used reddit long before the /r/thedonald showed up. Before /r/atheism became a default sub, which was terrible for the community of that sub. It became meme infested and caused /r/trueatheism to be made for sharing stories about religion intolerance from politicians, educators and employers. At a certain point, I started wholesale blocking any major sub and power user to reclaim some usability, but the API change signaled to me it wasn’t worth the effort anymore.

A lot of lemmy users are ex reddit users and have reason they switched. I switched because it started looking more and more like twitter.

I used reddit for over a decade, but I was never willing to buy reddit gold or support it because I didn’t trust any site where I shared my political opinions to have those opinions tied with by real name or any other billing info. Same with discord. At least with lemmy, you can support it without tying it to your account.

Have you ever heard a twitter user talk about reddit? They all hate each other.

It is if the results were falsified. Even it it worked somewhat, they’re probably greatly over stating the effectiveness or ability to scale to a mass population.

I remember years back, China solved world hunger by growing mushrooms in caves. I can’t find anything on that anymore, but I still have a friend listing that accomplishment.

Any news on it since then? It wouldn’t be the first time a scientific achievement out of China that embarrasses The West just fizzled out when no one was looking.

TempleOS did get forked.

What everyone else is saying, but god do I hate the fortnite art style.

Just get a cod piece like respectable humans.

Letter of the law vs spirit of the law.

I found this. https://www.togetherestranged.org/

Put together a Bug Out Bag. Even if you don’t think you can leave right now, just put it together.

If you’re underaged, record this stuff and go to CPS. If you’re a young adult, find a local support group and make plans to leave without any notice.

Zhang Yiming? I could only find him denying he’s Singaporean. Everything says he’s Chinese. It could be bullshit if he’s cozying up to the PRC, but that only proves my point.

it was open to both left and right contact

I don’t believe that for a minute. The CCP just had more subtle methods for suppressing content critical of them.
