Pay People to Stay Home @lawremipsum@mspsocial.net

The great thing about using the admin account to state extremely non-controversial things like

"Fuck off, white supremacists" and "we deplatform anti-vaxxers and anti-maskers"

Is that all the bad-faith broslices will tell on themselves by replying to sealion me or whatever

AWS is yanking Parler, which means it will probably go offline at least for a while.

This is an especially important time to be vigilant about fascists on the fediverse and not give any foothold to them. They'll be casting around for a new home rn and this mustn't become one.

Please use the #fediblock tag to alert for fascist instances.

@triz thank u

but seriously, I’m feeling extra special vindicated on having an absolutely-zero-nazis policy on our instance. I’ve been criticized for going too far by not federating with instances who choose to federate with gab, but guess what.

de-platforming fascists is good and it works.

@triz once a mod consumes enough milkweed, they secrete a cocoon and begin their transformation into an admin

.

this show accidentally predicted The Real Ass Mood of 2021, i.e. “shouting over top of the deafening CATASTROPHIC IMPLOSION IMMINENT alarms to explain to your bored friends that if you put your brain in a robot body it’d DEFINITELY have chainsaw hands”

fucking welp

Reminder to cw your toots about violence, uspol, pol in general, etc.

@lawremipsum yes, this is oddly familiar. We kept telling people that the people burning down our neighborhood were white fascists and that the cops were letting them. Yeah, sure some angry black folks and others rioted and burned down the police station and looted the Target and Cub grocery store. But they weren't who burned down small, local black businesses and went into residential neighborhoods setting fires. That was Bugaloos and 3 Percenters and suburban white kids.

Holy shit, who's ready to call their fuckin' senators about some shit this year? I know I am.
