Whoa. Blast from the past.

It’s, unfortunately, very subjective. A statement like that could be from a place of ignorance that they are willing to dig into and grow as a person. Any judgement has to include whether good faith is intended, etc. Conservativism itself is incompatible with motion towards a more just world, as rigid hierarchy is part of its core, and it is also an ideology rife with bad faith actors. Giving extra space for such an ideology that already has a far louder voice than it should have does not result in anything productive.
Das ist nicht genug Knoblauch. MOAR!
Paradox of Tolerance. Those that intend to undermine a just and equitable society that tolerates the existence of all kinds of people cannot be tolerated.
I think a couple of the slrpnk mods have wormed their way into the good graces of the admins there and then used the anarchism as cover for pushing authoritarian agendas.
That’s exactly what I think. I don’t think that it’s slrpnk as a whole but that anarchism comm on the instance had very problematic mods (who have indeed gone silent, pretty much proving that they were bad faith actors). They constantly acted to spread propaganda and silence anyone who disagreed. IIRC, one even all but outted themselves as a state actor. They’re all quiet now because they got what they wanted; successfully sewing enough discord in anarchist and other anti-authoritarian communities to prevent critical mass or embrace of effective strategies for positive societal change.
But don’t you see? Making the world an objectively worse place for everyone, especially marginalized people, and makes the harm to the biosphere more likely to be catastrophic and irreversible will totally load to it getting better. Everything works exactly like my maladaptive ADHD coping strategies from before my diagnosis and treatment - pushing things to the brim of annihilation will surely result in a better world and not just buckets of unnecessary human suffering and possible extinction.

But does it go “brrrrrrrrrrt” ?
Oh. The mods on that “anarchist” comm are bad faith actors and I doubt that they are actually anarchists - more likely authoritarian wreckers. The only things that they liked before the election was spreading tankie, anti-Biden, and anti-electoralist/accelerationist propaganda. For example, they would post anti-Biden op-eds then ban anyone who disagreed or pointed out that accelerationism has literally never had a positive outcome in recorded human history for “electioneering”.
I disagree with the conservatives part. Their ideology does not deserve a place at the adults’ table. It is far too bent on undermining democracy, equity, and egalitarian society.
EDIT: To clarify, this is elementary “Paradox of Tolerance”. Those that wish to undermine democracy in an equitable society cannot be tolerated without making an end to democracy inevitable. Not all opinions are created equal. For example: “I think trans people should receive additional state-funded support.” and “I think that trans people should be murdered and/or the state should cultivate an environment amplifying their likelihood to commit suicide.” (the prevailing view expressed by the far-right through their actions and legislation) are opinions that should not be given equal treatment.
I thought that they tried too hard to align with Quake 3’s twitch-gaming.
I’d be shocked at the cheering. I try not to watch movies with people who do that because it really annoys me.
But, imagine the wrongful death lawsuits when people started trying to make “fruit punch” with the flavors.
That’s easy. Summon Captain Planet and he’ll turn all of them into trees.
Giving away the only UT game that matters? Wow.
That’s incredible. I knew that QR had error correction capabilities but didn’t realize that they were THAT good.
Beautiful.
It’s only imperialism if it comes from the Imperialism region of the West. Otherwise, it’s just sparkling authoritarian expansionism.
Partly a joke. The mass use of LLMs by corpo entities is objectively accelerating climate change for the explicit purpose of making people’s lives worse.
Oh no. :(
