ffs what are you people complaining about? a citizen is murdered LIVE on camera and all you are interested in is my lack of punctuation?
i don't use capitals by principle bc i am an anarchist and keep it to a minimum to level out all hierarchical systems of control and make you realise these language rules are all social conditioning.
i am new on this platform and didn't know hashtags are not used here.
i am a citizen journalist spreading news around from grassroots independent outlets and sources i trust. i am wrong sometimes and make fucking mistakes.
now go fuck yourselves and mind your own fucking business.
Yes. I care about that and am furious at my government, but there's nothing I can do about that here except to say that it's horrible. I think it's safe to say we all already agree on that, so what's the point?
The part I care about here is whether or not you're a real person, which I have more faith in now that you've replied, but which your initial posts absolutely did not give the impression of. So that's what I addressed. As for your capitalization, I don't care. That's Powderhorn's business. Though I genuinely can't tell if the reasoning behind all-lowercase is a joke or not?
Look, there's probably no way to link the code of conduct for this instance to you in a way that feels respectful, so just humor me and give it a skim, please?
Ok, ignoring the rest of this comment...
This is wildly unhinged to me. Not the anarchist part, but that I'm supposed to somehow infer this all from the lack of proper capitalization.
Look, I don't really care if people follow grammar rules or capitalization, and I ignore them on most platforms myself. But I really don't think it's this deep, at least for most people.
Anyway, the video is appreciated yes, but the post came across the wrong way since it basically read like keyword soup. It's better to share videos with a description of the video or some personal commentary on it so that people know what they're going to watch (or not watch, especially for Youtube links which some will avoid).
