Well, if we talk about it here we get banned. I also think a lot of people just assume it’s all going to blow over.
"here" as in !news@lemmy.world ? I don't know, I often say it out loud and haven't been banned yet. But I rarely look back at which community I commented in.
lol. I’ve burned so many accounts over bans for action that I don’t even know what my username is at this point.
It's chiocciola.
What the fuck does that even mean? These ridiculous LLM created usernames.
Ah, you want me to do more stuff for you. It means snail.
OOh yeah… I actually remember creating this one. There was an article about a snail crawling Across an apartment building call box buzzer and the tenants thought it was kids playing games
Dunno if ban evasion is something you want to be bragging about publicly.
Why? If I am not attached to a username, then the username would just switch if I got banned. Life would continue on in 30 seconds as if nothing happened. No one here has any power over anyone, so why should I be scared?
A lot of communities frown upon it
Well, I frown on a lot of communities – so I suppose we’re even. And to answer your follow up ahead of time, I’ll go where I want and do what I want.
Oh shit, we got a badass over here
Thanks, I guess. But to me it’s a lot less grandiose when all I do is click a button and there is a fresh account.
I guess I could always spin up my own instance and keep one good account for acting superior, and then having thousands of accounts at the ready…. Like some people.
I'm not getting banned for saying it, and I see comments to that effect on Lemmy constant.
Say the word, Bart?
INCITING VIOLENCE!!! Woooo
Oh. So you incited violence. Hmm yeah wonder why anyone has an issue
So what’s your solution? More protesting?
If you haven’t noticed, ZERO efforts to curb fascism have worked in 2025.
My guess is that you’re not all that upset about it.
nah I love fascism. the answer is absolutely to scream about murder on social media tho
/s fucking obviously
So if you don’t have suggestions, just stay out of it. Sit back and let whatever happens happen.
So, the Winchester then?
You riding a horse?
Really? This is exactly what we should all be talking about especially after that last anti-1A, anti-Bill of Rights executive order.
