  • Identifying and outing feds by behaviour is a losing strategy, because it can lead to hostility towards otherwise honest behaviours, discriminate against ND users who don't fit 'normal' behaviour patterns

    Yeah, this has happened to me a LOT (different context though—it was accusations of being a scammer, or of having some other kind of malicious intent) and it’s fucking heartbreaking, because people often believe what they want to believe, especially in online spaces, and once the mob has made up its mind about your guilt, there’s nothing you can say or do that will save your soul.

    It’s amazing too how much this happens in leftist spaces, where you’d think there would be a bit more awareness of like, the fact that some people are ND, etc.

    But no. I have even been attacked like this BY OTHER NEURODIVERGENT PEOPLE.


  • There’s this pervasive myth that exists both online and IRL, that cops are going to be obvious. Frex: I once got fucking yelled at by my dealer because I was smoking with two people who were in his words, without a hint of irony dressed like ‘80s TV detectives. This is fucking asinine and only plays in their favor. “Feds” aren’t stupid, or at least not as stupid as we think.











  • I don’t know if it’s done with intent or not, but it has the effect of being a tactic of online warfare—say something extremely offensive that will fly under the radar of the mods, either because it’s technically not a TOS violation or because of mod bias in favor of right wing chode fucks, and then report the angry, fiery reactions. That’s how I got at least one of my many site-wide bans from Reddit.
