Maybe your opinions just suck?

You did say colonialism was good for Africa, like an asshole.

FfaerieOxide, (edited )
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I never said that.

Really, this isn't you saying it's African's fault Europeans enslaved them?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Are you good? A guy complained about brigading downvotes, I checked if maybe the person complaining was just an asshole (as sometimes it turns out when people complain folks are out to get them). They were.

I have never heard of Zima before this post, and I have better things to do than brigade vote people on fake accounts.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I never downvoted your every comment, I don't even know who you are beyond the guy who downvoting my giving condolences to someone mourning their dead father, so thanks for that.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I just wondered if maybe people had a legitimate reason to hate you and then learned you were a colonialism apologist.

I don't condone "FuckZima"

I get it; you're racist. You don't have to keep trying to get me to believe that; I am more than convinced.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

but that doesnt mean you can create alt accounts to harrass them.
reply

What does that have to do with me, a person who hasn't made any alt accounts to harass you?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I reply to alot of topics I see posted here.

What does replying to a home page topic have to do with creating burner account to downvote someone, something I haven't done?

It seems you're feeling powerless because you don't know who this FuckZima is and you're sublimating that negative feeling into lashing out at those around you and in absence of the ability to affect FuckZima in any way downvoting bereavement blessings.

I don't care if you downvote every other post I've ever made—I'll link them to you—but that one was cold.

What if they guy think you hate his dead father being remembered instead of having beef with me?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

You seem to be side-stepping the whole "Europeans bought and bred humans" part.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Which I never did but as another poster in this thread said I can see why someone would.

The OP complaining is a racist shithead.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I think the fact Europeans enslaved people have very much to do with the OP's claim that replacing direct enslavement with debt peonage at a later date more than made up for not only the original enslavement but later colonialism.

Blaming an oppressed group for their own oppression is not a good look.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Don't you have a "sorry your dad died" post to downvote, like you claim is bad form to do?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Wow, that's a whole new level of racism than I've ever seen.

Say, who established those borders you claim are constantly at war?
Any chance those were arbitrary lines ignoring local history and cultures by the people OP thinks did nothing to owe reparations over?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Would you mind showing me where I said that?

I think you'll see I explicitly didn't condone the behavior OP accused "FuckZima" of and then proceeded to engage in themself.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Don't you have a pirate ghost you can be worshiping right now?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

So now your racist views are facts, are they?

They geopolitical equivalent of "...they'd just spend it on drugs." isn't you revealing your underlying racist assumptions, its a universal truth?

How 'bout that.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

You've almost got racist bingo with your talking points there, maybe you should keep going.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I just said racism was bad my guy.

You're the one who engaged in the exact behavior you complain to everyone about.

Why did you downvote a "Sorry your dad died" post anyway? That's not very Hank Venture of you.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

start going back on my comment history to downvote stalk me

Where are you getting that? I told you explicitly that wasn't me.

I called you an asshole, here, to your face and you decided the behavior you claim to hate is ok when you do it all while not getting back at whomever it was you did (allegedly) downvote stalk you because that's a different person.

Now, I don't give a shit how much you downvote me because internet numbers are no more real than crypto is, but involving someone dead dad in your temper tantrum is really uncool behavior.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I'm really disappointed you think I would be that transparent to make a burner then post in a thread about it using my real account.

If I wanted to fuck with Zima clandestinely I would do a much better job of it than that.

I think Zima is a racist and a nincompoop, but I never downvoted anyone with a burner.

Testing to see if my posts still become invisible to me. (kbin.social)

Recently, I have noticed that when I make a post anywhere on the fediverse, I am no longer able to see that post, or any comments in it. If someone does post a comment, I will get the notification, and will be able to see the first few words of the comment, but if I click on the notification to see the full thread, it’ll not...

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Do you have any instances blocked? That was a thing on KBin

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Unblock all instances; see if fix.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I know, it's weird. And if you post a new image it should say "We are working on the issue" but the image will still post.

The Blagojevich Technique.

A Decongestant in Cold Medicines Doesn’t Work at All, an F.D.A. Panel Says. The panel’s vote tees up a likely decision by the agency on whether to essentially ban the ingredient, phenylephrine. (www.nytimes.com)

The agency now must decide whether products containing the ingredient, like some Sudafed and NyQuil products, should no longer be sold or perhaps give companies lead time to substitute other ingredients.

Just put pseudoephedrine back over the counter again. Christ.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

You do realize you can walk right up to that counter, point to the good stuff, and they'll just give it to you right?

Not after 9.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

That is incredibly unuseful as a way to curate how and who all can interact with you.

The way blocking seems to currently work is to the benefit of trolls & sealions.

It would be well improved as a feature were blocked accounts unable to see or reply to posts or profiles of accounts that have them blocked.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I disagree in turn with you.

If someone is harassing me and not engaging in good faith, I should be able to disengage from them and hide myself from their view.

If I was talking to someone in a park and a third person joined the conversation that's fine. If that person starts being an annoying asshole, I should be able to walk away from the harassment while still maintaining my conversation. Accepting harassment is not a requirement to talk to people, and I should not have to accept harassment from whomever wants to fuck with me for the privilege of talking to people who aren't harassing me.

I also don't consider a site where people shitpost memes to be needing the same "public forum" protections of say a town hall meeting or a politician's official communications.

"Open air free-for-alls" as I am reading you seem to prefer tend also to drive out people with marginalized identities as they leave them open to harassment people from dominate groups members do not get subjected to for just existing.

Further, there is no moral or technical reason a person should not be able to send out a message to "Everyone in the world except for Tom when he is logged in—because fuck that guy."

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

They shouldn't be able to eavesdrop on my conversation, nor take part in it.

I should be able to speak to Everybody But Tom if I so wish, and Tom should not be able to butt into the conversation.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Yes, I want to forbid people to speak to me or take part in my conversations because I say so.

I, selfishly, do not wish to be harassed or have my conversations derailed by bad actors.

If people are free to make their own threads and own claims, why do they need "the right" to butt into and derail mine?

If you want to maintain private conversations, use private messages. The rest is public

It doesn't have to be. There is no reason I should not be able to speak to "everyone accept for people I designate" (Tom).

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

If they can still see what I post, then blocking is not working as optimally as it could.

(And since their replies—that they should not be able to make—still show up in my notifications, then it isn't even working the way you say it does.)

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Nope, terfs are fascists.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I could link articles all day but I have better things to do than entertain (presumably) a cis guy while he plays devils advocate about the people who want my friends thrown in camps not being fascists.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

that's literally the first article you linked to.

Yeah I thought maybe you would read it this time.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Why are you "Well, actually..."ing fascists? Who gains there?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Does it piss you off you spend all this effort flailing about defending fascists and I still tell you (correctly) you're wrong and spend a fraction of the effort?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Having no time for a jackass in a month old thread dredging up his lack of reading comprehension and pathological need to defend fascists from true accusations of being fascists is very much different than being afraid.

You are correct that I am not reading your replies at this point, nor is anyone else.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I'll stop saying it when you stop doing it.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

You sure are upset about this group of fascists being fascists.

Why are you so cut up about arguing in a thread no one is reading?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Are you still typing?

Still caught up on a group of fascists needing you to tell people they aren't fascists, huh?

How's that working out for you?

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

That's how you spend your cis-ass time? Defending terfs from descriptions of fascism when they're fascist?

That would seem like a bad things to do for a group who doesn't need defending.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

You sure are confident telling marginalized groups you aren't a part of how they should refer to their oppressors.

You are very smart.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

You haven't even addressed the Bureau Of Fasism Forensics Analysis report? Until you do that no one has anything to say to you.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I am using it as a descriptor of an out group member sticking his nose in a oppressed in group's business. It is apt.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

I've been accurately called worse.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

You're asking me to provide motivation for others' actions—calling me things—which I cannot do.

FfaerieOxide,
@FfaerieOxide@kbin.social avatar

Was wondering what happened to your flood of posts. Guess the error is not local to me.

I just confirmed it's not just images I can't upload.
Even text threads do that thing where "We're Working On The Error" comes up and a phantom thread no one but you can see shows up on your profile.

As you say though, other threads origination on kbin.social are showing up so some posters are managing to get though?
