    To be fair, they pretty much built this place. They were here before the whole Reddit thing, and they stuck around. Most normies just up and left.

    I don’t particularly want to talk about the evils of capitalism in every thread. It’s really really bad, but I have diverse interests, and have some form of object permanence, it’s ok to talk about something else once in a while. But that’s the only content that gets any engagement here because we left and they stayed.

    So chalk another one for the old small-d democratic notion of “decisions are made by those who show up”. This is the “get lectured by Tankies” social media network now.

      Yknow, now that you say it, it does kinda make sense that the people simping for pro-Israel politicians would essentially barge into a space someone else built, decide it’s theirs now, and try and kick out the people who were here first.
