The world would absolutely be a better place if people like Loomer and Wohl and various others were dead and there is nothing wrong with hoping for a better world.

I mean Molyneux is a shithead but are we supposed to read that and think it's cool she made a joke about loving his wife, like isn't that some extremely dated 90's sexism/kinda rapey? I mean picture Quagmire saying that instead of person with a pretty girl icon.

I don’t think anyone ever found out who she was. She could be a 40-year-old dude from the web 1.0 days for all anyone knows.

this would own because you can block entire instances on mastodon, including at the instance level so almost everyone they would want to harass would be inaccessible to them unless they spread out through different instances (which can, of course, just kick them out)

I’d definitely feel relief if I heard that she died. I’d feel the same way if I heard she were placed on a psych hold and stabilized. She’s going to get somebody killed.

Yeah, I don't want her to die, but I do want her to go away permanently because, as you say, she's on a path that's going to end with someone dead.

I'm not a big fan of wishing death on smalltime youtube personalities, but it would be pretty funny if they react so poorly to Loomer's ban that they finally make good on that secret leaked conversation where they conspired to murder the 45th president of the United States, Donald Trump.

I have a friend who went on whole big rant about how Facebook is awful because of people generally being lovely or whatever so he deleted his profile. Meanwhile he's been using twitter daily for almost a decade. I can't wrap my mind around that.

The shop had to post on its facebook page concurring that the tires were not slashed, but Loomer was screaming, making a huge scene and refusing to leave unless *someone* wrote 'slashed tires' on the receipt.

It was even worse than that, she posted pics of an intake form which she admitted to filling out along with the repair shop's 'estimate' that said 'yup, definitely slashed' in the same loving handwriting.

SXSW Interactive was one of the few conferences where a small tech company could self promote on a shoestring budget. Since only nerds and tech weirdos attended the event, they were naturally the first users on the service. It always had pretensions of being a ubiquitous social networking platform, it was never 'for nerds'. The garbage was always going to appear once it got popular.

It's the easiest social media by far to be anonymous, and also allows you to create a nice little bubble of whatever you like without having to worry about being attacked for the most part, and even if you are attacked, muting and blocking makes it easy to avoid seeing anything objectionable. An environment that guarantees only positive feedback really allows horrible opinions to quickly metastasize.

Boomers ruin everything.

Facebook was a cool site you could talk to your college buddies on till it got taken over. Twitter was a cool site to share funny poo poo till that was taken over.

In a couple years Instagram will be riddled with boomers posting unfunny Trump memes and photoshops of Hillary. It's the natural progression of every single social media site that ever achieved popularity.

I wouldn't cry over Looms dying, but I also have this weird loving fascination with trying to untangle all the loops in her brain to see if I can make sense of her insanity.

So, in a sense, I would debate her, though I think I would only get an aneurysm from it.

That is a shame. I was introduced to her from this thread and she was an A+ Twitter follow. I hope she comes back.

Also, I reported this clown days ago, every one of his tweets are replies saying Jew this and Jew that and nothing has happened so far. It's obvious they don't really care about any of this beyond optics.

It always struck me as basically an analogue to the War On Drugs. Complete with prohibition being a disastrous failure that really only serves as an excuse for the police to brutalise minorities.
