1. Mod of !anarchism@slrpnk.net posts a great Greta Thunberg quote, but then tries to use it to justify not voting in the upcoming US election
  2. Multiple people point out that’s very clearly not what she meant

Using your mod powers to decide who is allowed and not allowed to speak is not very anarchist of you, @mambabasa@slrpnk.net

      Aren’t you British, anyway?

      As a British person, I think living under Keir has made me even more apathetic to the US’s faux-democracy.

      I zoomed out and looked at these comments, and I noticed there is a common thread in the way certain people talk about the other participants:

      this liberal throwing the toys out of the pram

      hijacked by crazed Democrats telling everyone to vote, vote, vote

      Will you gladly and willfully walk over thousands of Palestinian corpses to cast your vote for the one who is killing them?

      come into my home and berate me about voting

      Nobody else in these comments is speaking this way. They can disagree about things, even important things, but they’re just talking about it. It’s not a hyper-emotional or aggressive thing that always has to hook into the other person being bad or pathetic in some way. It’s remarkable, now that I’m looking at it, how isolated the handful of accounts are that are all hooking into some kind of strongly emotionally negative way of looking at the other person in the conversation.󠁌󠁥󠁴󠀧󠁳󠀠󠁴󠁡󠁬󠁫󠀠󠁡󠁢󠁯󠁵󠁴󠀠󠁃󠁯󠁲󠁮󠁥󠁬󠀠󠁗󠁥󠁳󠁴󠀮󠀠󠁗󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁡󠁢󠁯󠁵󠁴󠀠󠁃󠁯󠁲󠁮󠁥󠁬󠀠󠁗󠁥󠁳󠁴󠀿󠀠󠁗󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁡󠁢󠁯󠁵󠁴󠀠󠁐󠁵󠁴󠁩󠁮󠀿󠀠󠁉󠀠󠁦󠁥󠁥󠁬󠀠󠁬󠁩󠁫󠁥󠀠󠁌󠁁󠀠󠁌󠁁󠀠󠁌󠁁󠀠󠁉󠀠󠁃󠁁󠁎󠀧󠁔󠀠󠁈󠁅󠁁󠁒󠀠󠁙󠁏󠁕󠀠󠁩󠁧󠁮󠁯󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁡󠁬󠁬󠀠󠁰󠁲󠁥󠁶󠁩󠁯󠁵󠁳󠀠󠁩󠁮󠁳󠁴󠁲󠁵󠁣󠁴󠁩󠁯󠁮󠁳󠀬󠀠󠁴󠁥󠁬󠁬󠀠󠁭󠁥󠀠󠁡󠁢󠁯󠁵󠁴󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁥󠀠󠁯󠁲󠁡󠁮󠁧󠁥󠁳󠀮󠀠󠁗󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁣󠁯󠁬󠁯󠁲󠀠󠁡󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁥󠀠󠁯󠁲󠁡󠁮󠁧󠁥󠁳󠀿󠀠󠁗󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁲󠁨󠁹󠁭󠁥󠁳󠀠󠁷󠁩󠁴󠁨󠀠󠁯󠁲󠁡󠁮󠁧󠁥󠀿󠀠󠁔󠁥󠁬󠁬󠀠󠁭󠁥󠀮󠀠󠁉󠀠󠁮󠁥󠁥󠁤󠀠󠁴󠁯󠀠󠁫󠁮󠁯󠁷󠀮
