The "lib who thinks they're an anarchist and serves as a keyboard warrior to fight anything progressive" guys are so fucking annoying to deal with. At least stop making actual anarchists seem so miserable
Anticommunism leads to liberalism or fascism? I'm hearing this for the first time, terrible news, terrible news. It was a great instance, a beautiful instance.
If hating on multimillion media companies makes you a tankie, we may as well open up the gates of the CCCP to... literally everybody? What battle are you picking here? Whose back they got, Sony?
Yes my instance is a bunch of dumb fucks... The mods are the worst offenders.
They also have 0 fucking idea how to sus out the bot farms. The moderators also don't have an ability to view their chat logs. If you message them >7 days later, they have NO context for what you said before.
I'm totally sure there were 5x the number of people who liked the OG post that drilled down 50 comments in a chain just to dunk on some "tankie"
Instance creator in here explaining that if you remove all instances of "piracy" from the meme then it stops being related to piracy.
I'm just gonna say that Eugene and his ilk are very common in video game communities and I hate them. I remember reading through the a famous FF7 (original) modding forum for a famous translation mod and they would show open contempt for people acquiring the PS1 era game through illicit means. In a modding forum of all places.
Imagine being a corporate bootlicker in a fucking piracy community. What's the point of piracy then if you're just going to lick the boot? So are they just a corporate bootlicker who's too cheap to pay for slop lol
Glad to see he's been banned in here FINALLY. Sick and fucking tired of libs trying to pretend like they defend a leftist ideology.
But honestly, why stop at just DBZ? The other 2, RandomLegend and Flatworm7591, are just as bad if not worse offenders.
Because I know you're still in here lurking DBZ, good fucking luck axing the other 43 accounts I have on your instance (or the >200 on Blahaj or the >500 on LW)
Lord knows you have NO ability to prevent bot accounts on your instance.
Best of luck with the DMCA takedown requests, because I just absolutely LOVE corpos and their profit-margins ;)
Be like Enegue. Use your disproportionate buying power as a first worlder to purchase and rip media to upload for those locked out of it by the dominant systems. Buy the highest speed, uncapped internet and seed all those torrents. If you don't have a 200:1 up/download ratio and you live in the first world then shame upon you, son of Eugene.
Also on a serious note, I was ignorant for a long time of the huge disparity in buying power of US citizens vs even Eastern European and it gets worse from there. For example, taking into consideration wages and taxes, buying a game for $60 (or €60-70 I suppose) in a non-EU but bordering the EU Eastern European country is like... out of my ass mental conversion, like an American spending like... $150? Honestly might be even more, I'd have to go check some current prices. That's why these countries and like Turkey, Arab countries, Russia, etc. all have high piracy rates and it's just seen as normal there because no one can justify buying media at the same price to US/EU buyers without consideration for local economies. (Some efforts have been made in the last decade or so to even out the disparity but it still exists. Also hardware suffers the same disparity)
This is turning into a "2 minutes of hate" situation with you peeps and our instance, innit? :D
The admin probably was a bit too uncharitable in interpreting the meme due to who was posting it, but it was ultimately removed for being unrelated to piracy.
Y'all need to chill with the hate though. It's what causing these situations as admins and mods immediately assume bad faith from hexbears and .ml
PS: Also this doesn't even feel like a post fitting for the dunk tank since it's not even a public post somewhere, but just a lemming being upset they got moderated (like pretty much every lemming being moderated) and looking for a friendly space to shitstir.
