I really appreciated the effort! I wondered if there was a long game ... whether Left would evolve or expand in character development ...

Presumably this is now Centre's time to shine.
― pomenitul, Friday, 11 September 2020 18:12 (four years ago) link
Or Center, depending on the type of verisimilitude you're aiming for.

Anyway, Left was often Very Angry but many of their posts were quite good and I agreed with them.
― pomenitul, Friday, 11 September 2020 18:14 (four years ago) link
frequently agreed with the main thrust of them, but jeez that person seemed to be aggressive for no reason.
lol, yes, this
xp well except for New Order, I can see how that gets you some extra FPs

they were kinda responsible for that super capitalist sports anthem though .... I mean, they don't have the bona fides of Crass ...

do they owe us an FP?of course they fookin' do

tbh I frequently agreed with the main thrust of them, but jeez that person seemed to be aggressive for no reason.

Fer shure. 'I regularly agree with you but you regularly give me reason to regret having agreed with you' is definitely a thing.
(Have never FP-ed Left, fwiw.)

Never FP-ed Satan's postYou'll know if I had, that shit don't come off

what did Whiney post that got redacted by mods? if it's heinous u need not recreate here, just seemed like people were pissed off about it in the Gawker thread
― Neanderthal, Friday, 11 September 2020 18:49 (four years ago) link
He was giving examples of "edgelord" tropes without thinking to moderate his language, so basically he was tossing off slurs. There was other stuff to it but the slurs part was what got it redacted.
― emil.y, Friday, 11 September 2020 18:56 (four years ago) link
got it. thanks...glad that was redacted then.

Realizing that Left probably got to 51 because of a post calling Kamala a cop.
New stance: critical support for comrade Left

I support Left

tbh I usually glossed over their posts but they seemed good and angey

If i still post here twenty years from now will there still be whiney controversies

Didn't we just change the rules because it was impossible to get 51'd?

He was the poster I was talking about when I said he was the only one who was anywhere near 51 and he was really trying. His posts were also the sort of thing I was talking about when I said "blunt political challops or widespread condescension of the "I alone see what you idiots all refuse to admit" variety".
It was mostly the "fuck you all and your white supremacist nation" type posts that did it fwiw, posts barking at people rather than talking to them. From IP lookups he doesn't appear to be a sock.

kind of intrigued by what caused this as I've not noticed unperson being particularly obnoxious of late
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:13 (three years ago) link
uh, he's been basically the same dude the entire time I've been on ILX -- he's like Shakey Mo -- impressive in his consistency. I see this as more of a barometric shift as you will.
― sarahell, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:18 (three years ago) link
He's prickly as hell for sure, but I fp'd him for the first time ever the other day for an insultingly racist & gross attempt at a "joke" (and actually it was the image he posted as follow up that really pushed me)
― rob, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:22 (three years ago) link

Not that slow, considering the recent reset!

Heh, true.
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:28 (three years ago) link
he earned 18 entirely on the strength of the Trail of Tears “joke” a couple weeks back.
― sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:29 (three years ago) link
so if not for that he’d still be hovering in the “normal” range of 0-6
― sound of scampo talk to me (El Tomboto), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:31 (three years ago) link
Ah yes, I’d forgotten about that episode. 18 in one go is quite something – he certainly knew what he was doing there.

I kind of want to see a generational breakdown of historical bans. Who takes the cake so far? Actual boomers? Gen X? Millennials? Zoomers? Gen Alpha? The Interbellum Generation?
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:34 (three years ago) link
Putting a tenner on gen x, easy
― seumas milm (gyac), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:38 (three years ago) link
They’ve had more time than the rest of us tbf.
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:39 (three years ago) link
I would say Millennials, but then I think Gen X is only 1962 - 1977
― sarahell, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:39 (three years ago) link
Might have known the major infraction was buried on some in terminal uspol thread
― Chip-vill-A (imago), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:40 (three years ago) link
Interminable, even. But then again
I mean LJ and Whiney were both born after 1980 and they've got at least 3 each
― sarahell, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:41 (three years ago) link
You were right the first time.
X starts in 79/80, I think (speaking as someone married to someone too old to be a millennial).
― seumas milm (gyac), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:43 (three years ago) link
Can’t argue with that.xp
― pomenitul, Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:43 (three years ago) link
I think of X as 1965-1980, more or less.
Sorry X ends, I meant. Tbh being born in 1981 being a millennial is taking the piss imo.
― seumas milm (gyac), Wednesday, 7 October 2020 20:44 (three years ago) link
millennial begins in 1986. 1981-85 is a zone of nobodies and ghosts
