I downvoted maybe half a dozen posts. They were all right-wing bullshit and I realized that’s all the user has ever posted so I got out of there. The next day I see more of his junk and go to downvote but can’t because I’m banned.
Sure it was a dick move to poke the bear about his lifestyle of only posting things that get downvoted, but he. Went. OFF!
Accusing me of alts, thinking I’m obsessed with him, message after message… I probably have more in my inbox right now but stitching this image together took long enough.
I was thinking more about this today. Why would I have two completely different personas on opposite sides of the political spectrum? Why would I post hundreds of socialist and pro-union articles, then suddenly switch and post conservative content under another name? What’d be the point?
Why would I go to all the trouble of sharing so much socialist, anarchist, third-party, and pro-union material if I were conservative? If I wanted to post conservative stuff, I could just do it on my main—and I have, occasionally, when I found something interesting.
DMusk doesn’t even post in places I have been banned, so “ban evasion” doesn’t hold up as an excuse either. I wish I would have made these points in all my discussions yesterday.
