       @jeffcliff I mean, but they have /pol/I guess if you stay out of /pol/ you'd be okay but is it really the same thing as social media? I've only ever used 4chan once to ask a question on /tv/ which they couldn't really help me with

       @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff Even on 4chan on unrelated boards, you probably won't escape it. /v/, well Kotaku and co, Sony and etc are actively censoring your games and attempting to piss in your cereals. /tv/? I don't go there, but surely Hollywood are discussed there, etc... Surely, this shouldn't be a problem on /vr/? Well except some retard is currently modifying their 10 years old FF4 mos to be more PC and SJW have chased out the one guy willing to translate the remaining Mystical Ninja games because he accurately translated Okama to Tranny or some shit like this. A lot of it is hypothetical, but I know it comes up on /v/, in which people are often going "muh discord trannies" because there's a a subset of retards that constantly attempts to raid 4chan with little success in which all it did is basically introduce the word as a common insult used there in line with the rest of the offensive shitIt literally ain't gonna end until the extreme polarization and the stupid culture that comes with it that constantly attempts to piss in everyone's cereals doesn't go awayActually it's so insane that apparently fucking grandmas knitting forums and other knitting communities are basically full of SJW politics instead of knitting, which is annoying the grandmas and other that actually just want to knit, I fucking shit you not. You ain't even safe from that in goddamn knitting forumsOtherwise, the "current wave" of general politics discussion should die out after the inauguration in January, cause US politics

       @coolboymew @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff I think the politics and the accompanying drama that comes along with it are brought on by something more primal in how people are and how they get along. It's a vector for a lot of base, ugly, disgusting parts of human nature that once upon a time we knew were a lot harder to handle on the internet than offline. They'd even pop up offline in various social settings, and we'd just know to avoid people like that. Now, with how things are, we can't "other" the sanctimonious busybodies because they have the good views and fight harder for them than we do.I want it to end, too. But it won't. It doesn't look like it's getting any better, either, and that scares me.

       @mrsaturday @coolboymew @jeffcliff I just don't understand why a place called "Shitposter Club," a name that insinuates it's for silly bitches to come post silly stuff, has been infected with hardcore armchair political analysts!

       @SpudsRudeEye @coolboymew @jeffcliff  It's a place for anyone. Even people with hot takes.I get too political myself, but I try to post silly shit when I find it.

       @mrsaturday that was turning into a hellthread so I untagged the others. Anyway, your silly stuff is usually good. I think we all strive to be Mitsu but we all know deep down that's never gonna happen

       @mrsaturday @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff Actually the fediverse itself is a good example of that too. Mastodon came and the political troubles came with it when Gargon got to advertise it that way. Yet another place where the trouble came itself

       @coolboymew @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff This place, Sealion Club, and Highland Arrow were also known as Gamergate havens for when Twitter got too ban-happy. So it kind of comes baked in the cake.

       @mrsaturday @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff true, but there was nowhere the fights and the level of shitflinging and political warrioring until your usual suspects joined with Mastodon, making it whole circle once again

       @coolboymew @mrsaturday @jeffcliff I joined this site on the suggestion of one of my online friends when I told him that I felt out of place on Twitter and had grown to despise Twitter's... orientation.

       @SpudsRudeEye The Japanese are really good at posting stuff that makes them happy, too.I mean, I guess I could put FFXIV or ACNH content on here, or stuff I find when I'm around and about town. I'm not as cheerful as Dielan or Mitsu, so it's a little hard for me.It's a little frustrating, too. I post a picture of a Jim Henson storyboard of Rolf the Muppet in an IBM training video I see at a local museum, and I get crickets. A political hot take can get double digit likes. I know I shouldn't sculpt what I post to my audience, but sometimes you wonder if you're just showing stuff off to people that aren't interested in what you're posting. No one wants to feel like that, that they're just posting garbage into a void.Also, Mew is right. Fuck Gargron, fuck Mastodon, fuck tech journos and fuck Wil Wheaton.

       @mrsaturday I don't share my political orientation-- not because I'm trying to avoid fights, but because my political orientation is so absurd and unheard of that even my brother, a hardcore Republican capitalist-at-heart laughs at me and says "that doesn't make sense in ANY alternate dimension, dude."

       @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff @mrsaturday honestly the best you can hope is go to communities where they aren't constantly shitfligning against you (basically, here) and where you're not constantly against the wave and have some level of people willing to argue with you and agree with you, and of course, where you're not constantly scared of the proverbial axe if you say one thing out of lineLike a lot of people, I'd also like to go back to how things were a decade ago, badly, but it just seems impossible at the moment. I'd have to shut myself off from the Internet entirely and start being as ignorant as possible from what's going on around my hobbies, and that's just not an option

       @coolboymew @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff Sadly, this is how it is. I like D&D. If I lived under a rock and crawled out to game once every week, eventually what's going on would catch up with me and I'd start asking "Why the hell did they make orcs and drow good? Why are they getting rid of alignments? Whose idea was this shit?" Even if you wall yourself off, you will be impacted by it at some point and in some way.

       @mrsaturday @coolboymew @jeffcliff Well, there's a Pink Floyd album about a man who builds a psychological wall between himself and the rest of his base-- then he locks himself in a hotel room and is haunted by beings called the worms. But that's besides the point, I tried building a wall between me and my friends once and it hurt a lot and I regret doing it. Things are better now, though, I patched stuff up a long time ago.

       @mrsaturday @SpudsRudeEye @jeffcliff Basically, in some way you'd be worse off as you'd actually be falling prey to the stuff you'd normally know to avoidThe whole thing is honestly absolutely miserable, there is no real winning until it completely goes away because some people has made it their life work to make you absolutely miserable, for the sake of mankind somehow. The irony

       @mrsaturday @SpudsRudeEye Wonder no more: we're all interested in what you find interesting. The lack of responses means that nobody had anything to say about it, not that nobody liked it.In fact, I wouldn't come back to the fedi ever again, if it wasn't for the colorful worlds that every now and then a post opens a window to. I enjoy them very much. Even when sometimes they only serve for the purpose of filling gaps in my highly politicized timeline, without them nothing would make sense. It wouldn't be a comfy place anymore.
