  • That’s a fair way to look at it, yeah. I blocked the instance a whole back after being the target of the dunking culture and classification of statements like “peoples historically oppressed by a country can be reasonably expected to turn to terrible geopolitical powers, if faced with existential threat from said historical oppressors without other recourse” labeled as “fascist apologia” (referring to the USSR’s invasion of Finland, a country that was occupied and used as a battleground and colony by Sweden or Russia for centuries, leaving them with few options but the nazis to try to maintain a semblance of independence that they had previously won from the Russian Empire). If one can’t examine the mistakes of the past, they aren’t serious about trying to avoid them in the future and I ain’t got time for that shit.






  • This. I don’t partake anymore because if I have too much, it puts me in a full-blown anxiety attack, sometimes with existential terror mixed in, and couch-lock on top of that. Nothing quite like appearing to be having a fine time to the outside world while internally being trapped somewhere between emotional purgatory and hel for several hours.

    The risks outweigh the benefits for me. That just means more for everyone else though ;)
