Works for me. I’m over wasting my time on platforms where I’m not allowed to praise the great man Luigi for his wonderful deeds and wish for more like them. Because that’s how I honestly feel and I won’t apologize for it! I can’t hide who I am anymore.
Edit: whoops. Wrong thread but same idea. Hah.
Oh, we’re not supposed to condone violence against monsters who hurt others for greed here either? Well, dang. What if I do though?
Ooopsie, there goes your money. Not exactly a good idea to cross your community, is it?
Free Luigi.
Yeah, I grumbled about all of the same nonsense for years and stayed, but upon having posts shadow removed for saying “Luigi” and being told I can’t upvote content that goes against the official corporate narrative… hell no. I don’t want to participate in a community like that. It’s sad to see as somebody who was on Reddit since the early glory days when it was a freedom of speech platform with an overall excellent user base where mods never messed with you, but… all good things end. Reddit being a good thing ended years ago.
Yeah, remind yourself that anybody who would do this isn’t a person worth having in your life. They don’t care about you.
Thank you, that’s kind. I promised my family I wouldn’t ever do that to them, and I intend to keep that promise unless it’s a pretty extreme condition like the painful end stages of a terminal illness or apocalyptic scenario. The thought of them getting that visit from the police and putting them through that grief is too much.
I was banned by a bot for threatening violence… against myself. I merely said “it’s comforting to me that if things ever get bad enough I can just blow my brains out.” Now a moderator did unban me when I appealed, but it’s like you say… insulting that bots are banning without human review in the first place.
Anyways, I decided to leave Reddit for good this time and left on a final post saying I hope He Who Shall Not Be Named inspires more bloodshed of terrible people ruining the world to line their own pockets. That’ll probably get the account permabanned. Good riddance.
I swear I went from like 2008-2015 without a single encounter with a mod. Then it became a lot of posts being deleted for breaking arbitrary rules. Then it became constant harassment by these power tripping dorks and bans that were often unjust. Then the third party apps were ripped away so they could put ads in every 5 posts and then inside the comments. I bitched about all of this nonsense but stayed… Now it’s AI moderating, shadow removal of posts, being unable to say the name Luigi in any context, and warnings/bans for simply upvoting posts that go against the official corporate narrative. I won’t stay for that nonsense.
Finally left for good. Place is so far removed from the principles it was founded on. Guess I’ll be here a lot more… but hopefully spending less time doom scrolling in general.
Love. People just use each other.
I definitely don’t want to believe in God, because if there were one then that would mean a sadistic narcissistic monster is at the helm of all of this. I prefer an indifferent universe.
Look, I know that you love me, but I asked you to please not follow me. Maybe we could have had something great, but you ruined it. And that’s on you, kid. I don’t believe in second chances.
Man, you really are just a miserable cunt then. Best of luck with that. Maybe those venerated geniuses will come up with that magical solution for you.
Imagine we’re at a party. I am now grabbing my beer and going to talk to somebody who isn’t an asshole. Don’t follow me.
So you took the pills to find out the same thing I knew not taking them and now you are lashing out calling me an idiot and downvoting every one of my comments though I don’t mirror that same hostility and disrespect. Very cool.
You know, getting depressed sometimes is a part of the human experience. Some are born into happier conditions than others and some are destined to misery by virtue of the family, class, and culture they came into. It’s all random chance in a chaotic universe. I still think being born human beats being born as a friggin’ tapeworm or bedbug or some other shit animal though, so it could be worse. Just do your best to distract from the depression when it strikes, don’t label yourself with some bullshit diagnostic another flawed ape monster put on you (who no doubt has many of their own mental issues), enjoy the small things, and know that this all comes to an end one day (thank God). Fuck it.
More bullshit than perfect as it were. Maybe someday with enough guinea pigs to experiment on, eh?
Only thing I need to know in this case is that I don’t trust that industry and find it terrifying that they have been given any credibility and legal power over others. Quacks with degrees in pseudoscience whose book of diagnostics was written by the same people on the pharmaceutical boards. I will have nothing to do with it.
You do you and follow your own beliefs and practices.
Yeah, I’m sure being held captive by terrifying ape creatures isn’t what causes their mental issues at all just like the conditions that terrifying ape creatures inflict onto us isn’t what causes ours. It’s just a brain chemical imbalance you are born with, you see, and you have to electrocute the brain to solve everything… wait, no, shove this ice pick up your eye… well, that was problematic… take these chemicals! Hmmm… let’s try a dozen more until we find the “right” one.
Fucking hell no.
No other animal suffers from depression. If it were a brain chemical issue, where are all the depressed squirrels and buffalo? It’s a human problem. That brain chemical imbalance shit is a neat way for the pharmaceutical companies to push their expensive poison on us. Break your dick and ruin one of the few good things in life. Happy now? Pass.
Depressed? Congratulations. You’re more intelligent and aware than most.
Then may the true assassin do some more good work out there and clear his name…
