Slight misunderstanding, I think.

We are on the dzuk list instead.

There were at the start a few folks who would go get in arguments on the fediverse and when we asked for proof of harassment we were told that was harassment too. Honestly I don't mind because the people who employ these kinds of blocklists are disturbingly similar to the buttheads they want to avoid.

Of course, Lester Dolt probably never asked about it being a figure of speech. If figures of speech are too ambiguous to be allowed then not only is it absolutely applied unequally, but that's a completely impossible standard.

"Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey on Wednesday defended the company’s decision this week to put Infowars’ Alex Jones in a seven-day “timeout” after Jones urged his viewers to ready their “battle rifles” against the media."

So is it the case that figures of speech are not allowed or is it the case that they can't tell the difference between a figure of speech and a threat?

@aven In the words of Babylon 5: "Never start a fight, but always finish it"

@aven that's all it ever is. If you're on the quest for cosmic justice you can justify anything. It is a rootless, vile faith.

@aven It's part of the quest for Cosmic Justice - they view it as compatible because it is "their" voluntary collective. I once listened to a debate with one of these anarcho-commies saying how under their system everyone would just be part of whatever collective they wanted. "Well what if I don't want to be part of a collective and I get everyone else who doesn't want to be part of one and we form a nation state?" - fried his brain

@aven Timmy boy nailed it though, they're not really anarchists. They're just communists that are happy to co-opt anarchism as means for removing the existing system.

@ScottALavender @PhoneBoy They keep writing about it because they keep getting press kits!

@ChrisWilson We have the bikes too. I may or may not have kicked a few of them after drinking. 🍺

@ChrisWilson These fucking things are everywhere now! I've seen two kids putting milkcrates on them to use them like a ghetto moped.

Something about a guy in a mask with a lot of ammo disguising his voice and talking about the Illuminati. Seedman, eat your heart out.

@Atomicglue God fuckin' speed.

Any recommendations for MacOS games that don't tax the CPU/GPU much for solid battery life?

4 days of nonstop headbanging coming up and it's hard to concentrate on work...

@DrChris Imagine cheating on your wife, bantering with your mistress, causing a national controversy and then getting hundreds of thousands of dollars from strangers for it. That's the world we live in.

@DrChris Cillizza is a bonafide idiot, but the url in the quote shows a different username than the one shown on the right hand side. Still a salient point
