its no wonder everyone on these forums have left.
this thread is a great example of why.
even a topic that is supposed to be about kindness/gift giving turns into a salt mine of toxic whinging.
yikes.

everyone left because multiple other servers have launched while people were waiting for a blue merge or new server. shitty off topic takes is the only thing keeping this place still afloat

Forums died from the top down.

They thought they could facilitate the basement campaign, not only here but across the entire social internet, but they forgot this lesson.

Sure, that's likely a big component to it. Yet, threads like these certainly aren't convincing old timers or new comers alike to wanna join in the festivities.

I cringe far more often here than usual these days. It's sad, because this place used to be a highlight of internet scrolling. Now it feels like a baren wasteland of fringe far left marxist ideology, or psychotic far right ideology. Where did all the normie bros/broettes go?

Guess it's time to move on. Consider this my farewell and final post here. It was a fun ride while it lasted. <3
Take care of yourselves everyone! Cya in the next virtual world/forum!

You don't see wanting your confused and partially insane sibling to have a nice Christmas as acceptable?

Ok that's fine.

But I do.

Wow for someone who I normally often agreed with it sucks to have to go out with a take that is completely wrong in every conceivable way

I dunno what forum you used to surf, but for YEARS here there has been back and forth, sometimes extreme, political arguments. And then the mods got sick of it and now the only way to have a political discussion is to dance around certain hot-button topics, like “this isn’t about Trump, it’s about Elon” because people know the mods will often put up with discussion about Elon but not about Trump. Picture warm as opposed to hot

Also, I know of two at least lefties here and multiple righties and I would not categorize any of them as extreme fringe beliefs. Just the fact they are tolerating reading opposing opinions and not putting everyone with opposite beliefs on ignore etc and trying to create an echo chamber tends to make them more middle-ground in my opinion. I’ve always been of the opinion that the fringes on each side are about restricting rights, but for different and sometimes opposite reasons. And that’s not the case with the opinions expressed here

So anyway, at work and that’s as far as I have time to break down. But yea, this entire goodbye is straight wrong. The forum used to be 10x more political and especially fringe political before than it is now. And it was that way for years and years as far back as 2015 or whenever when I started reading it

yikes.
All White Supremacists (by any name) need to be reminded that they are the broken ones.
They are un-normal.
Unacceptable, and anyone who accepts them is to be treated similarly. Anything less is to be allied with them.

Is anything in any way unclear about that?

So a cunt punch is in no way unfair. It is what they would deal out to those they see as less.

Or buy her a copy of Mein Kampf and coddle the fuck up.

It no longer matters. You have already chosen.

Maybe try talking to her and getting to know her. It’s hard to buy gifts for people you don’t know, this is your sister.
