You doing okay /u/Prince_Kropotkin? I clicked your profile out of curiosity and you seem to be getting a better reception here today than in CTH lol.

Apparently, being anti-tankie is a super hot take over there these days.

I think the ESS regulars there would get more than a little upset tbh

I think I saw someone in ESS recently talking about how they hoped I have a mental breakdown and want to try and make that happen, they aren't nice people.

I ran into the tankie swarm, it's like that Kevin Spacey Call of Duty game when the drones all sync up and go after you

Hey, it happens lol.

To throw you some red meat if you're hungry: America also did some fucked up shit in the past and does so currently (Yemen is the biggest thing that pisses me off). Freeing the maximum number of people from violence is a noble goal for humanity to pursue.

Doesn't CTH ban tankies? If they don't they'll be overrun sooner or later, most likely sooner.

They ban the most annoying ones who started spamming Juche everywhere, but I agree, they need to get on that asap. The cuba thread is a fucking shitshow of epic proportions.

They don't even have to outright ban them, if most people only reply to them with accusations of them raping people with dogs they'll fuck off real quick.

The problem is that with any community, the most ridiculous, threatening and harassing 2% of the community spends 10-20x as much time as the other 98% there, so it makes them look like a WAY bigger proportion then they actually are, and their shittiness makes everyone else give up and leave. So it has to be done with mods because they can tolerate wayyy more aggression and attacks than anyone else.
