There are so many clear psychos on these forums who evade any kind of moderation for one reason or another. It turns out some "leftists" are actually psychos that brandish society's inequities as a cudgel against people who notice they're insanely toxic. It's become a hallmark of these forums!

Goons: "I don't appreciate that we're now sharing the forums with Stormfront and they're over there explicitly lusting for the death of undesirables."
Others: "Woah, let's not get political. This smells like forum drama so everyone stfu."

Also spotted from goons themselves in one of the Eve threads, where someone quoted another's explicit genocide denial/encouragement and was met with a half dozen replies of "uhh, this is a space fantasy game, let's leave politics :jerkbag: out of it." Some people just don't think twice about breaking bread with cryptofascists.

There are a lot of freaks online - who is to say who is wrong? Whats important os that a space is provided where the holdomor can be discussed (ranted) about for the 10000x time in order to clarify that certain historical figures were monsters/right/clumsy.

I want to say the nice part of that eve saga was the goon in question was immediately discussed by the goon corp and booted the next day. I was part of that and one of the people that complained about the goon in question to people running the show.

No, that’s what eventually got Helldump closed but where it started was with goons taking peoples posts on the forum and harassing them over it. Parts of CSPAM function like that without any real moderation. For that particular poster, they were helldumping them over their personal stories, brigading the other thread, and calling him and his family nazis amongst other nasty speculation.

What’s gotten the GBS thread closed repeatedly is not the harassment, brigading, and endless incitement of conflict with source-your-quote posting happening in other threads but the fact that people in GBS thread are pissed about it and keep bringing up that it’s happening. It’s a ridiculous double standard and not good for forums health at all.

I’m annoyed with the whole thing because of how the punishment is focused on the people mentioning the harassing behavior instead of the behavior itself, and the thread just went through a dumb sideshow where an admin shut it down to take feedback and just whined about how they’d rather be getting coffee and watching sports instead of dealing with it before proceeding to do absolutely nothing.

I feel bad for all the poo poo Kit gets dumped on her, especially bcause CSPAMs admin post absolved them of being genocide deniers or secret Nazis.

Also he used the term manufacturing consent and I fear my brain would leak out of my ears.

I've been to Halloween and New Years events in Tokyo before. It was pretty much just as crowded as that picture, but in a wider open space. I'm glad I had that experience, but I'm an indoor type and it wasn't even that fun when I did it. No way in hell would you find me at an event like that now that I'm older.

It is some screwed up stuff in that footage. Honestly if it wasn’t for the first responders not having gear on, it looks like a chemical attack.

Obviously, that wasn’t the case it was a crush event, it just looks eerily similar.

On some clearance jobs and ex mil contractor websites they advertise positions for security for what they call Ultra High Net Worth Individuals. The criteria is usually 7+ years in a SOF unit with combat deployments. The pay is usually anywhere from $750-$1500 a day.

I mean with this resume anyone trying anything is going to be like a toddler trying to fight an adult right? Like this basically totally explains the rarity of assassination now.

Kinda, though not everyone has such demanding requirements and a lot of people just straight up lie on their resumes. More discriminating clients sometimes have contacts that can weed out obvious bullshitters but CEO McCEOface may just go for whoever shows up with the most visible tats.

When I first saw the headline without the knowledge it was a crush event, I assumed it was a terrorist attack with a chemical agent. 120+ being killed by a crush incident is almost worst, because at least the survivors and family can point their sadness and anger at some rear end in a top hat/group with an attack, as morbid as it is.

I know exactly what you mean, that said looking at previous mass casualty incidents in South Korea, a construction one and that ferry come to mind, South Korea does find someone to focus on and go after criminally (not surprisingly some of these people off themselves before the arrest).
