really imago, i have no idea what you're advising me to do, except obv participating in any thread about a non-hobbyist topic is a grave mistake. I will probably keep making it; I am an old, undesirable man with a boring job.
In this particular case, Matt P blew up from a non-incendiary post by Aimless.

i wouldn't but there don't seem to be any female posters making arguments aimless & morbs were making? matt's was an extremely unchill post but i understand his frustration with the tone & way in which they were talking about it. tbf aimless posts the same way about everything so it's not exactly a huge transgression that he made an analogy b/w rape culture and laws in ancient athens, taken in the context of his, like, 19th century social theorist persona.

I hadn't been in Ukraine thread so I hadn't noticed.
I do feel like this ordeal exposes my main issue with Twitter/BlueSky sites. Many have defended them by saying that you get news you wouldn't get from mainstream media from people much closer to what is happening. And yes, that often does happen when it's something like an Alex Pretti situation where there's full video of a shooting and it needs somewhere to go.
But there's just so much crap out there. People began relying on these sites more for advance tealeaf reading during the height of COVID and now use features like Trending or keyword searches and find voluminous tweet threads by people posting with confidence and authority who are often either distorting info for engagement farming or just outright talking out their ass.
So I get that with mainstream media being internally censored at increasing levels, people are rightfully looking for alternative media to fill that void. It exists but you don't generally need to be on YouTube, TikTok, BlueSky, or Twitter to read it.
I myself got taken in by unhinged COVID grifters in 2021 so it's hard to stop once you start, it's like eating your third bowl of chips despite your stomach aching

"Many have defended them by saying that you get news you wouldn't get from mainstream media from people much closer to what is happening."
I just happened to put BBC Radio 4 on for my cat as I'm out for the evening and I got to hear the whole ringmarole of how "its so hard to verify info out of Iran, but google images show that the Iranian army building next to the girl's school was flattened" but what we get is a recording of an American govt spokesman denying it all with this shitty journo dancing around the obvious.
So what I am telling you is that there are many ways to lose your mind.

zoroaster moldbug
the thing i say over and over again is that _i can't protect people from the consquences of their own actions_
yes the entire world is in a prolonged state of crisis and none of us individually have the ability to fix it, it fucking sucks. it sucks when people you care about are suffering and dying and a lot of people are suffering and dying right now. once we get to a point where we're actually able to heal rather than just survive a lot of shit is gonna hit and it's gonna hit hard. right now, well, when someone cares about dies, my reaction is just "that sucks, i liked them". it's the same principle when an ilx poster i feel sympathetic towards starts saying and doing fucked up shit and (rightly) gets banned for it.

Re: censorship. Whether that's what's happening or not isn't something I am going to spend a lot of energy on. However its happening there is a lack of information and analysis and I am going to go somewhere else to fill that gap. That means either knowing more or being taken in often or losing it eventually, or its already happened. Not saying its a great route.
