Wait I missed something, what happened with them (awoo and foucalts)?
Awoo, I thought she was struggle seshing over Luigi Mangione lionization (on the side of lionization) (she ain't banned yet fully)
Foucault, uh, IDK why
info on Foucault's ban can be found here, including screenshots from the mod chat argument that precipitated the ban
Awoo harassed people in DMs and refused to apologize. Also just a hive of Anglo brainworms
Awoo caught a temp ban and it was reversed almost immediately but proceeded to go after someone in DMs, Foucault according to the log was being a debate pervert in the mod chat.
Crazy to ban foucault and not the other too.
Yeah. You see two people creating a long-ass thread arguing back and forth and both of them refusing to calm the fuck down, but only one of them is supposedly a "debate pervert"? That's not how this works, and you should not be a mod.
At this point I'm really close to just leaving this place behind. The vibes fucking suck.
If two people having an argument and after a third party chimes in, someone recognizes they're getting too heated and uncomfortable, chooses to explain why they're uncomfortable and then take an extended break, I think that's valid. Removing yourself from an argument is fine. You can always disengage.
If the other person in the argument then spends an additional two hours making wild, hyperbolic statements and doubling down in the face of multiple people trying to de-escalate, that's not a great sign. If that person has a long history of doing this, it's an even worse sign. Foucaults didn't get a ban for this one single incident of an unreasonable argument, this was just the straw that broke the camel's back for a user with a long history of starting and escalating arguments.
Disengage.
The fact that this is your perception of events clearly illustrates the issue this sites moderation has with favourites, cliques and power users.
A shallow thing to say, I could say the same thing about you. Come up with substance besides some weird liberalism please.
the other person left the mod team discussion and the site
The fact that users like a frauddogg can run around sephiroth posting like the protagonist in an action movie for divorced dads, but I can't tell people to suck my ass is incredibly telling. My issue is inconsistent moderation and favouritism.
The moderation team reminds me of that years old video of the DSA meeting where people kept coming on with "point of order". The mod team are like the people who reduced Gloria La Riva to "a cis woman". They're the kind of people you hate to have in an org, the kind of people you suggest of being a fed because they follow the fed playbook to a T (which we can't point out here). It's rancid and it sucks and it's gotten really bad over just a few months.
I'm sure these idiots are celebrating the fact so many news mega posters are gone, considering the fact several of them hate it is there. What I said in the old struggle session remains true, they're going to end up being on a site of 7 people where they blame 3 for being bigots that scare people away, never once stopping to consider if they maybe are the ones who suck.
Real talk you fuckin weasel; who the fuck do you think you are? I know you don't fix your face to talk shit like this irl and I will sig your ass sideways for it with your translucent ass; I see straight the fuck through you. You wanna talk about "posting like Sephiroth", let's see bout that.
Pot meet the goddamned kettle. This ain't even your WHOLE MODLOG, you absolute skidmark. I can play this game too:
Where the fuck were you in the Will to Change threads? Where the fuck are your works? What do you do, and who do you do it for? Cause if I was just out here for the pat on the mf back, I could talk for hours about my org's campaign against AFRICOM. Hell, I could talk for days about my literal goddamn years moving surplus produce through my community. When I look at you, tho, I see little more than slop in your backlog posts, slop in your comments, I don't see you showing out or putting on for nobody. I hope to god you don't have an org; 'cause I'd walk out on it if I saw you in it with your insufferable ass. Show and prove, motherfucker, bring it out here.
Because right now, all I see is a treatbrained reddit-adjacent cracker (no wonder you went for 'Sephiroth' like it's supposed to be an insult, all that slop in your backlog) who's gotten pinched for hostility EVEN MORE THAN ME on this fed (cause most of mine? From other goddamn feds. I don't like stepping on poster's toes here specifically; but you just out here VOLUNTEERING FOR THE DRAG); and I can't wait to hear you say "oh i'm not white/not from Amerika/not a westerner" because motherfucker you sure as shit sound like one. I'd trade you for davel in a heartbeat even after all his defense of theftboxes.
So next time you think you wanna put my name in your mouth like this? Think twice, and don't with your IMAX projector-lookin ass. You already my new example; don't make it worse. I'mma leave this last part in header-text, so when you inevitably come back and go "well I'm not reading all that bullshit" cause I've seen you do it before, at least the point will stick:
You are not beating the allegations. You are not about this life. Take your bullshit and go home, and keep my username out your motherfuckin mouth from now on.
Come on dawg, for some so proud of being unafraid, why don't you post from your main?
I only knew about Foucault from checking the mod log, I generally shy away from the struggle sessions because I left reddit to stop getting wrapped up in multi-day arguments with strangers.
