@CharmingMalcontent @wjmaggos you sound crazy. Wow!

@chris @CharmingMalcontent

but somehow you just ignore the same junk from NAS etc.

@wjmaggos Chris ABRAHAM wtf are you talking about?

Don't shoot people but AFAICT this is how the GOP wants "gun control" to work in America. Everybody armed, no background checks or red flag laws and no gun free zones. You should be able to get off a shot or two if you want, but then you're caught or shot yourself. #CharlieKirk said it himself that this is the price of the 2A.

I think we can do better without inviting tyranny. Or maybe now we can have this kinda shit and tyranny too. I was told it would be different.

@wjmaggos did you know that people who smoke weed can't buy or own guns? That the mentally ill can't buy and own guns. The only form of "gun control" the Right will pursue is taking all the guns away from anyone the Right deems "crazy" and with Palantir, they can probably find everyone. It'll be the perfect plan to round up all the most vulnerable people and actually do ACTUAL terrible things besides "potential suicide" to them. Yikes. Trump is half masting over this.

@chris

my goal is better policy. I posted that to try to get pro gun people to reconsider what those policies mean in reality. the anti tyranny conservatives already seem cool with masked agents grabbing people off the streets if they are brown. Trump already had consent from MAGA to do anything he comes up with cause they somehow still trust him inherently.

@wjmaggos @CharmingMalcontent I block every Nazi that I run into. Use a racial, ethnic, sexual, or gender slur and I block. At least I only do it person by person and not instance by instance.

@wjmaggos Masks protect agents and families—same as Antifa, fully legal. “Pulling people off the street” is just normal INS/ICE practice; Obama deported 3M that way and nobody called it tyranny. Unless folks are vanishing into mass graves, this is law enforcement, not fascism. To the Right, after 4–6 years of “nobody’s home,” it just feels like rules being enforced, not tyranny.

@chris

that kind of block only helps yourself. you didn't block this guy, you called him crazy.

if you want to help those attacked by the Nazi types on fedi, I wish you'd join in my arguments that nobody should be allowed to obviously harass others. if their server admin doesn't police that shit, blocking servers makes sense or else you will get a fedi where their targets will just stop showing up.

we don't go to parties with assholes. party organizers have to choose who to invite.

@wjmaggos I recommend you block my instance then. If you check out the block list, there are a lot of people who do.

I think you might be taking me too literally. When I said “you sound crazy,” it wasn’t a diagnosis—it’s just a casual figure of speech, like saying “that sounds wild.” I do understand your concerns about blocking, and I do block people who cross certain lines. I just try to do it person by person instead of whole instances, because I don’t want to unfairly lump people together.

@chris

if you don't allow users on your instance to harass others, your server shouldn't be blocked.

again, I'm asking you to speak out against the shitty servers, not just block randos. the "blocking too many people" issue comes down to not wanting to have the fedi be a shitty place and having too many servers that don't mind that happening. we have to approach it from both sides. tell progressives to block less servers for non harassment and conservatives to not allow users to harass.

@wjmaggos
Oh no the worst thing about me is that I'm a server of one I'm an instance of one there is only one user on Abraham.su and it is Chris at Abraham.su So if I am blocked it is only because I suck because I'm the only person on that instance I'm the only person on that server ergo if you don't just block me because you think that I am a representative of evil Russia and a water carrier for Putin based on my top level domain then it's just a me problem.

@ryan @chris

maybe you didn't grow up very different from most of the people around you in a society that generally defined people like you as weird and whose history reinforced that and get looked at funny and called names and heard about people like yourself getting hurt and maybe threatened or worse yourself.

consider the way some react to being called fascist or Nazi and then add all that.

@ryan @chris

have you considered what life would feel like right now if you actually always thought you were in the wrong sexed body?

@ryan @chris @wjmaggos except the 13" penis right? I'd claim that
