Only one of those is me though. I have nothing to do with those other people. I don’t have any alt names; only alt instances.

People are totally free to block people on that list if they want to, but has nothing to do with me, friend.

Your account is only 5 days old. So seems like you have some sort of alt thing going on.

Good call!!!

It definitely was unpopular before the election. I was banned in some places for saying it

Yep. Lemme isn’t really a fan if free speech and they usually say it leads to nazi things. But I’m all for free speech even if bad guys use it too.

You are free to start your own communities on that instance. Nothing is stopping you from starting liberal/democrat/lefist communities on there.

If you don’t like my communities, then create you own. That’s the beauty of the Fediverse, friends!

However, would it be out of place for me to recommend a way of approaching fascist or conservative stories in the future to avoid the fire extinguisher?

Not out of place at all, friend. I appreciate your concern.

But I gotta be upfront, and I don’t want you thinking that I disregard anything that you are saying. Because I DO appreciate you, and in fact, envy your thoughtful nuance and educated responses.

But I don’t take Lemmy that seriously. I just don’t.

Lemmy didn’t change the election. Lemmy didn’t affect the election. Nothing I say or have said affected the election.

We are legit a small community of nerds who argue about shit online.

That’s as far as it goes for me. Yes, I think conservatives should be able to speak here. Yes, I think Lemmy should be more open to diversity of opinions.

But no, I won’t overthink my approach to it. I’ll create a conservative community here and here, and contribute posts to them. From news orgs.

I just freakin’ cut and past link of something I read that’s interesting. That’s it.

I don’t ragebait, because I don’t have any intent to enrage. The fact that people get enraged is on them, not me. I don’t know why people even click on the links if they hate the headlines so much.

And if they DON’T click on the links, then they really shouldn’t get so mad. Just ignore me, move on. I know it’s possible. I ignore lots of people on Lemmy. lol

I do wish there were more people like you on here though. I enjoy your comments, even if I don’t necessarily agree with all the points made.

Friend, you are much smarter and nuanced than I am.

And I appreciate that about you!

Just because Trump won that doesn’t mean your boss is going to stop astroturfing and trolling, manufacturing consent is a full time job.

Who’s my boss? Friend, I’m retired. lol

Not to mention the near constant engagement.

Ohhh, you mean replying to people who ask me questions or talk shit to me. So replying to people makes me evil somehow?

Your patterns are easy enough to see for anyone who wants to dig through your comments (or your old ones at least, I’m not interested in going through your modern ones to see if you guys got better at your job)

So let’s show them. Let’s see some examples.

And let’s say that one day I DID decide to turn conservative (which hasn’t happened), that’s not against the law nor is it against Lemmy’s rules. Lemmy is not a liberal/left-only entity.

Heck, even if I DID vote for Trump, still not against the law, nor is it against Lemmy’s rules. Lemmy is not a liberal/left-only entity.

Besides, I votes socialist anyway. Which got me banned from .world. LMAO and no regrets, baaabby!

I’ll vote that way next election too. :)

Is that you openly admitting to ban evasion

It’s not ban evasion because I don’t post on instances or in communities that I have been banned from. Ban evasion is coming up with an alternative name in order to CONTINUE to post to communities that one was BANNED FROM.

I don’t do that. If an instance bans me, I don’t post to that community.

Dude, think about it. I kept the SAME FUCKING USERNAME! If I wanted to evade a ban, I’d choose a different name. I mean, pretty easy to catch me if I’m using the same fucking name, right?!

The fediverse is the way it is in order to prevent small groups of people from controlling the narrative.

Which is what you are trying to do. You don’t like what I have to say, so you think I should be banned.

Seriously!

Give me an example of something I have said or posted that is deserving of a ban. Go ahead. Post it here. And you can’t use anything said on .world, because I was banned from there and never have posted there since (and I stand by everything I said when I was there, by the way.).

So come on, friend. Post an example here in this thread of something I have said or done that is ban-worthy. I don’t ban evade. I have never posted anything racist (I’m bi-racial.) I’ve never posted thing transphobic or anti-gay (I’m bisexual). I’ve never advocated for violence–in fact I have called others out for advocating it and in fact reported them.

I post news articles that you don’t like. Which by the way are created by MAJOR PUBLIC popular news orgs.

So come on, show me a post that you think is ban-worthy. In this thread. For all to see.

And I appreciate you saying that. Read the whole thread. You’ll find yourself in the minority when it comes to your banning opinion.

Now as for sad and lonely, then again, I’d argue that there is nothing to fear by having me be here.

Also for context, I’m retired early, I’m fit and healthy with a gf and a social life that is more active than I would prefer. There is nothing sad or lonely about my life.

I like the idea of Lemmy. I like posting on Lemmy. And I think all points of view (as long as legal) should be allowed.

I don’t take any of this shit seriously though. lmao I even have a selfie on my slrpnk instance of my name in a workout community I started.

The other people in this thread need to take shit less seriously though. lol
