If some of the accusations are to be believed, they didn’t just kill and rape little kids. They tortured them. They filmed the rape, torture, and murder of them and delighted in the recordings. They ate their bodies! Yes, really. That’s probably the most plausible explanation for the many very strange references to very wealthy, powerful people making a weirdly big deal out of jerky. And we have that straight from the emails.
These are inhuman people. Monsters even. A perpwalk ought to be the least of the dehumanizing things we do to them, given their crimes. There is no reintegration possible for people like this.
Hadn’t heard that. Wikipedia doesn’t mention it. Wouldn’t matter anyway because archangel is a subtype or rank of angel. I suppose technically, he’s a fallen angel.
I wouldn’t say users are stupid to still be using Reddit. There’s still alot more activity there and alot of subs still haven’t switched over yet. But if they start requiring identity verification, I think we’ll see alot more switching. Right now, I do both to get the best of both worlds. If I have to give them my identity, they get cut out.
The good news is that if the fediverse gets an influx of Redditors, maybe we’ll see some of those niches pop up here too. Reddit’s impending identity theft coupled with the insane enforcement of rule 1 they’ve been doing lately is what got me to make my account here.
I mean we’ve known for awhile that Trump and Satan are a thing, thanks to South Park’s documentary work. And, last I checked, Satan was an angel.
I mean, I got a 3 day ban (R1) for joking that we should shoot robot dogs guarding AI datacenters. It’s literally not one of the categories that is even supposed to apply - it’s neither a person, nor a place, nor some kind of animal. And that was my second account after my first got banned for similar sorts of jokes (yes, some were people, all were obviously jokes). Yeah, they’re going crazy overboard with enforcement on that. Subreddits need to start moving over now.
That’s part of why I made my account here. Might as well start getting familiar with the alternative. That and the mods on Reddit are out of control handing out bans for jokes about violence. Like the other day, I joked we should shoot robot dogs and got handed a site wide 3 day ban.
These writers REALLY love to reuse material. If you look up stuff like what was happening in the leadup to the Great Depression, it sounds eerily familiar. The stuff in the Gilded Age is shockingly similar to what we see going on today. And go lookup how Hitler swayed conservative Christians (including Catholics). It sounds like stuff that could have been written yesterday. Oh and LGBTQ hate? Nothing new. LGBTQ people were literally one of the first groups the Nazis went after.
But that whole thing also gives hope. Such evil has existed before and been overcome. It can be done again. It also often falls because of its own stupidity.
