I know it's redundant and annoying at this point posting her bullshit but I just found this too funny to not share. @db0 remove this if you want,it's fine.
Holy shit, I thought this was supposed to be a list of cult warning signs in increasing escalation and was like this makes no sense. I didn't realize this was actually rules for their cult. WTF.
@gravitas_deficiency I'm using mastadon over lemmy. Sorry. It's a new thing. This person in particular was basically shaking the community down for crypto donations and when they weren't getting what they wanted they decided to stop doing it and now they've resorted to a demigod complex I guess?
Cool to learn a bit how Lemmy via Mastodon behaves. I accidentally subscribed to a Lemmy community via my Mastodon account, but I just ended up unsubscribing and resubscribing via my Lemmy account.
No worries! I was mostly just curious - I had seen that comment pattern recently once or twice, and that was the best explanation I was able to hypothesize, which I guess was accurate-ish.
@gravitas_deficiency it's a denuvo crackers private cult page filled with smooth-brained idiots who feed into their malignant narcissism. They were a member of CODEX, only person who cracks denuvo games properly at the moment. Led to their narcissist behavior. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
@gravitas_deficiency the last 6 years has been the right wing community seething with anger and resentment. Were seeing a resurgence of strong-arm politics and a return of a cold war. Hard times are ahead my friend. This is a crazy time to be alive.
@gravitas_deficiency if you read the original post, there's a bunch of stuff relating to anti-lgbt comments, which in light of the recent controversy over the anti rainbow flag protests in the USA and abroad, it is relevant. It's coming into the piracy community now, and I guess the point of this post was to make a decision as a community to continue endorsing this person, or conscientiously stop associating with them. Sorry if I wasnt clear. I will never use EMPRESS releases personally
Fair. I was just chalking it up to that person apparently being a wingnut psycho.
But regarding “it’s coming into the piracy community”: uh… I’m pretty sure I remember a lot of super weird shit being somewhat common in the piracy community even a decade or two ago. There was always a lot of crossover between piracy communities and the darker parts of the web (e.g. 4chan).
