I probably shouldn't be making this post. I hate getting involved struggle session highschool drama shit and I won't even point to specific evidence because frankly this shit depresses me. But here goes:

This might be a "wtf are you ranting about, Owl?" moment but there are some serious reactionary vibes in this place sometimes. Maybe it's a holdover from the dirtbag leftist era, I don't know, but it's gross. I see it trying to worm its way in here and it's a bad sign

If you ever catch yourself using the kind of shitty othering and ableism you'd see on stupidpol or a 2016 cringe compilation, go do some self crit or fuck right off

Imagine the negative reaction there could be had if mods had the technical ability to edit comments. I can barely fathom it and it makes me want to quit at the very thought

I didnt think you could edit, just censor parts of the message explicitly. I'd be fine with that, I trust my moddies <3

So there's a Slur filter regex box in the admin section of the site where the past admins spent a lot of time filling it with all the slurs, and all their variations, to ensure any dweeb trying to have a gamer moment gets their gamer words zapped instantly

You should do a bit sometimes where you add censored words like "authoritarian" lmao

People get mad at me when I do stuff like that

Edit: I also promised carcosa I wouldn't do it anymore
