  • And that's so crazy to me, honestly. I remember the days when not a single ISP was willing to host Stormfront, and every website instantly banned anyone who was being a nazi. Now they embrace them.

  • It's an Overton Window thing. They've watched so much "fair and balanced" far-right media that it has made them believe that they're centrists.

  • Exactly. I feel like this is one of those instances of "We're spending time thinking about whether or not we could, when we should be thinking about whether or not we should."

  • ;-)

  • Ahh, that kind of makes sense. I can see that. I guess the tooltips should be more descriptive, in my opinion.

  • Ahh, ok cool. :)

  • Well, there's no question that Instagram sucks hardcore.

  • I really hope you're not talking about me here. I feel like you might be.

  • Oh! Thank you!

  • Hi! Here are some of the AI results...

  • It's funny though... He definitely is a Republican... because the things he says AFTER about "How great America used to be" is also bullshit.

    "We stood up for what was right" - Colonialism? Jim Crow? Segregation? Tulsa Massacre? Civil rights?? C'mon, man.

    "We fought for moral reasons" - The ONLY reasons we we entered WWI was because Germany was beating England. The ONLY reasons we entered WWII was because Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, and Hitler was beating England. All the other wars were against "communism". That's hardly a "moral" reason to go to war.

    "We waged wars on poverty, not poor people" - This is the only thing he says that is almost correct, but we didn't win the war on poverty. It was all for show.

    "We sacrificed, we cared about our neighbors" - Only if they were white.

    "We put our money where our mouths were" - For white people only.

    "We never beat our chest" - This one, I just... I just can't even. Really? Really? There are people who believe this?!?

    "We didn't scare so easily" - Red Scare, anyone? Cold War, anyone? Brutal suppression of the labor movement, anyone? Brutal suppression of civil rights, anyone?

    Jesus. Literally the only thing he says that's correct here is that America is NOT the greatest country.

  • Someone probably guessed your password and logged in as you way back when, and then started posting shit that was against the guidelines or just spamming.

  • That's heavy, dude.

  • This reminds me of /r/orphancrushingmachine

  • Interesting. On an entirely separate note - when I click the "Show Context" button on a reply in my inbox, it treats it like a permalink instead of showing the previous comments that led to that comment, if you know what I mean? It directs me to that comment instead of its parent.

  • Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix User is. They have to see it for themselves.

  • Eew. Why would you want to do that?
