I felt the need to share something personal about myself to one of the most welcoming, great communities I’ve ever had the honor to call myself a part of. You can make posts lamenting my radicalisation all you want, but seriously that shit is none of your business and the fact that you decided to deride me for being “tricked” or something makes me really mad. Do you think some internet strangers can automatically re-write 10 years of the US school system’s imprint on my brain? The people on hexbear were everything the people on your instance claimed to be and more, these “genocidal tankies” showed patience, compassion, and empathy to me, and you think you can just condesendingly harp on about how i’ve been brainwashed? seeing hexbear made me decide to take a second look at my worldview, and really research who i was, what i believed, and what i stood for. If you think you can reduce that to me being brainwashed, you can go to hell.

fuck you and never post about me again.

(what community do i post this to? cth should be fine right? just delete it and dm me if i have to move it :P )

      Paraphrasing my stance on Bluesky: lemmy.world is for people who think that the only thing wrong with reddit is Steve Huffman.

      It is just reddit, but one of the whiniest parts that instead of just shrugging when their treat access was limited a tiny bit like 99% of them, went into the huge tantrum and actually left. Or, parapharasing old proverb, you can take redditor out of reddit, but you cannot thake reddit out of redditor.

        So, all the wonderful folks from subs like “coontown,” “jailbait,” “incels,” “beatingwomen,” “watchpeopledie,” “gendercritical,” and “The_Donald” then?
