for a comment that boomers should hurry up and die already

I see people say shit x100 worse about the homeless, "drug addicts", the poor in general, Russians, etc. on a daily basis in most subs, but oh noooo think of the fucking 80-year-olds

Personally I consider it a good thing. I need to stop spending time on that hell website, and even though I could easily create a new account, I think I'll just try to avoid that shit.

    Waiting for a generation to die doesn't work. Class interest is reproduced across generations. As long as this arrangement of ownership and power exists, there will be young people facilitating it out of self-interest. Fewer than those that don't, yes, but the same is also true of the baby boomers. Most of them live in poverty now.

      Yeah generation nonsense is bullshit, but, speaking as someone raised by boomers, please let us enjoy them dying

    I'd have left the site years ago but r/modernart is taking off and my dog's subreddit has an image backlog that's too much of a pain in the ass to transfer to his wordpress blog.

    Abandoning reddit and facebook are the small changes that have had the most outsized positive impact on my life

    yeah it's actually annoying because i can't ask questions about my hobbies and shit now but whatever, the site is literal garbage. sorry it happened.

    i got perma IP banned (first time ever, i never even got temp banned once, as in, i got no warning) for saying (i believe, anyway, they never told me what i said wrong) in a worldnews thread that the uvalde shooter should be locked up for life lmao. i had made the account to post in that thread so there were like 3 comments it could have been and that was the most E X T R E M E view i espoused.

    they said i was 'inciting violence' and i even tried appealing it and they verified it. reddit trash.

    It's a blessing. I was IP banned there a while back and I didn't feel like having to age a new account, use the VPN on my phone just to get banned for disagreeing with a lib ten minutes later.
