Sure, winning a world tournament is no excuse for that behaviour.

We all love Son Goku, but where does the moderator stand on the sexual escapades of Master Roshi?

We have to stop the herd animals from grazing on upbears.

Ah cool, if only I could make infectious disease into a hobby. I love the four horseman and civilizational collapse.

Haven't kept too much up to date with Christian, but I think he has had some reactionary takes after covid. But he also has capitalized on Lin Manuel Miranda's popularity of Hamilton by trying to pretend that Alexander Hamilton is a left wing radical.

Christian Parenti is Michael's son and has some reactionary takes and positions. He seems to align with Max Blumenthal quite often.

You have failed the people.

Geez, well, despite everything else, I like this site and the connections I made here, so sic sempre hexus ursine. May we find some ability to come together and move on.

Thanks, as far as I can tell everything escalated and just got out of hand. I still understand there might be part of these struggle sessions that I missed, but it really seems like people can't take disagreement without thinking that it is an existential fight.

Okay, thanks for the clarification. I am still trying to understand the ins and outs.

Okay, so this is mostly just being stuck watching my [internet community parental figures] fight.

IDK, I see some use in moving/categorizing things along that axis. But things seem to have gotten much further along than just the exact splitting of the two comms for mocking reactionaries.

I mean, there was some discourse about gossip having some gendered/misogynist overtones, but other than that, it seems like just a simple reshuffling/renaming. How did this go so far off the rails?

Wait, so this all boils down to the dunk tank/dredge tank struggle session, and everything else is downstream of that? seriously?

Is it the large amount of bans flying around and some of the mods stepping down? I am still trying to understand what is happening.

I am trying to understand, I guess the issues with the admins and mods goes deeper than Alaskaball, but I guess I don't know what is happening other than mods maybe being a little ban happy?

I am just a random poster that is trying to catch up after not being online less than 24 hours, but I really appreciated your news megathreds and posting. Thanks comrade.

Okay, great. I really just couldn't understand where the drama was coming from and what was going on. Glad I could be caught up!

I was offline most of the day and still trying to understand the drama and what happened. Just to clarify, most of this is just around @Alaskaball@hexbear.net being banned and that was something they did to themselves? So I should put my pitchfork away? Also I think that there is some involvement with the term Dunk Tank, which has racist origins, so we are making new comms to avoid that. Is there something else that I am unaware of?

I literally touch grass one day and have no idea what is going on.
