Unrelated, but I have personal beef with Wikipedia because they've locked editing of some pages about Wales on account of what they call vandalism and "not fitting the relevant style guide" when Welsh users try to update place names where the English name for it has been officially dropped.

As a compromise, they sometimes have the official name in brackets after the English.

Nice. A comment straight out of the Cointelpro playbook.

I don't know about you, but person who fedjackets you for incredibly innocuous comments is a fantastic new type of guy.

"Personally I think Aliens' switch to a more action oriented film when compared to the relatively slower Alien was a step in the wrong direction for the series."

"Is that what it says in your CIA handbook?"

Usually you're meant to be slightly more subtle than this when recognizing someone on the same side in the wild, like a subtle "comrade" or similar.

The Australians clearly aren't sending their best in that regard.

On the other hand, living here in rejected British religious extremist colony, I really wish my ancestors had been petty criminals instead of calvinists or whatever

Mate, what are you on?

Cointelpro is when you disagree with a decision in site moderation?

[-] Huldra@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

What, recognized the handbook and got excited to meet a fellow in the wild or something?

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
