RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

I'm not sorry. Seeing someone who spread so much hate and bigotry and weaponized disinformation get his clock cleaned was absolutely fine by me.

I have empathy for lots of people even if we don't always agree, but not for people like Charlie Kirk.

I was immediately worried about the consequences from the right to feel any joy about what happened.

Yeah and libsoftiktok immediately posting "THIS IS WAR"

What consequences? They're already doing it. He WAS the consequences.

I think things are going to get much worse.

They were already going to get worse. They keep pushing the envelope and nothing has stopped them yet. Very few have even attempted to stop them. And when they've actually hit roadblocks, they just plow right through them. Things were always going to get worse.

The last thing I ever worry about is their fucking feelings
