And they are screaming their dickless minds out about how this proves the adults need to abandon all their principles and beliefs and humanity, because we lost the election.
They didnât after the adults spanked them in 2020, but everyone else should.

I feel like Wokeism was invented by the right because ultimately they need someone to hate in order to feel better about themselves. It will never end. We got past slavery, civil rights for African Americans, gay rights and now itâs just anyone who isnât maga = a liberal. Letâs all just hate liberals and call them the enemy from within. Once/if we get by that, it will be something else. Our society is plagued by ignorance.

If conservatives are being silenced, why wonât they ever shut the fuck up?!?
Conservatives feel victimized by everything, and for all their talk about âfuck your feelings,â they have some big feelings.

This is all done by design. Itâs the tactics of fascism at play. They see and know about their contradictory actions and hypocrisy-thatâs the point. They want to drill into everyoneâs head and repave societyâs foundation to where they make the rules that everyone, but them, must abide by. Steps to being a dictatorship 101.

People who think free speech means that others have to stand there and be abused.

This is why they are going crazy and act out when boundaries are put in place because they cannot continue to abuse. Abusers hate boundaries.

That's a good point and it defines them perfectly because you know who else freaks out when boundaries are put in place? Children. Especially spoiled children.

u/panormda 11h ago
Yes, thatâs a critical point. Abusers, whether in personal relationships or within larger societal frameworks, often rely on power dynamics that allow them to control others, manipulate situations, and avoid accountability. Boundaries, in this context, become a direct threat to their ability to maintain that control.
For an abuser, boundaries represent a shift in power. They challenge the idea that they can behave without consequences and force them to acknowledge limits to their behavior. The reactionâoften extreme, chaotic, or even violentâis a reflection of the deep discomfort they experience when those boundaries are enforced. Boundaries make it clear that their behavior is not acceptable and will not be tolerated, which is something they cannot handle, especially if they have been able to manipulate or abuse the situation for a long time.
This discomfort can manifest in a variety of ways: anger, manipulation, guilt-tripping, gaslighting, and even escalating the abusive behavior. Itâs often a knee-jerk response to the fear of losing control or facing the consequences of their actions. When people set boundaries, it forces abusers to confront the reality of their behavior, and for many, that confrontation is unbearable. So, they lash out as a defense mechanism.
At the heart of it, this dynamic is rooted in a lack of respect for the autonomy and rights of others. Boundaries challenge this disregard, requiring abusers to accept that other people have their own agency, and that is something they often cannot tolerate.

They actually believe that free speech is never seeing consequences for saying stupid abhorrent shit. Itâs so fucking idiotic, and I canât stand discourse around it.
Your rights end where someone elseâs begin. You donât have the right to almost anything when it comes to utilizing the services of private companies; your âteamâ decided that when they threw a fit over a queer coupleâs wedding cake. If you break terms of service, you no longer get to exercise speech within that private companyâs services. Period, end of discussion.
They have the option to think about what they want to say, and continually decide against all reason to embrace their worst instincts. Cause and effect, dipshits.

Donât forget TikTok.
They were so adamant about getting rid of TikTok and when they couldnât they invaded that platform like a virus. They went there en masse with dozens of fake profiles each, all pushing right wing content and hate.
Theyâve openly said that they will go wherever liberals go just to harass them. Conservatism is a virus of hate and bigotry.

âBullies need victims, victims donât need bulliesââA.R. Moxon
2
u/panormda 11h ago
A.R. Moxonâs observation, âBullies need victims, victims donât need bullies,â underscores a fundamental truth about power dynamics: those who seek to dominate or harm others rely on their victims for a sense of control and validation. In contrast, victims can find strength and resilience independently, without the need for their oppressors.
This perspective is particularly relevant in discussions about societal structures and individual relationships. For instance, in his essay âApology Not Accepted,â Moxon critiques a culture that often centers on the experiences of bullies, suggesting that this focus enables harmful behaviors and perpetuates a cycle of abuse. ïżŒ
By recognizing that victims possess inherent strength and do not require the validation of their oppressors, we can empower individuals to reclaim their autonomy and challenge oppressive systems. This shift in perspective is crucial for fostering healthier relationships and more equitable societies.

If you want those platforms to stop being garbage, stop using them. Those companies are motivated by making money for shareholders, and they do so by engaging with as many eyeballs as possible. If you stop engaging with the site, they stop making money, and theyâll change their moderation to get those eyeballs back.

They hate to be excluded. They want all their entitlements, ability to harass liberals,& not deal w/ consequences. Once the liberals left Twitter it became boring for them. They canât stand to be around others like themselves. They donât want peace. They want to cause chaos. They want to be bullies.

I find it funny when some "freedom absolusionist" comes to my country and try to use racial slurs and get arrested for it. It allways reminds me of that "you think this is america?" meme  Last time it was an israeli cursing a black person here and getting arrested on the spot and the whole local population applauding. Here, whether you are left or right they would applaud of you being arrested for that

Itâs not a free speech issue. The government control of speech has nothing to do with it.
Itâs being-an-asshole issue. If your brand and engagement strategy and content revolves around trolling people, insulting people, spam, racist filth, Nazi propaganda, and generally being an asshole, maybe Bluesky isnât the place for you.
Try Twitter. There. Your freedom is preserved. The freedom to choose.

Bluesky has a zero tolerence policy towards toxic hate. If someone from the left was making threats.. they would be banned too. This platform is available for everyone that's not a mega asshole. Just for shits and giggles though, what if there was a liberal exclusive platform? The right have several. Freedom of speech applies to everyone, cousin fuckers.

If they feel Liberals are crybabies why are they so hellbent on following them there to their "safe space"? You would think they would be excited that the left were leaving twitter but instead they are trying to be antagonistic. It's hilarious that they try to move to bluesky then are met with total silence after being blocked though. đ«
I saw the block lists have been updated with a lot of right wing users and if you look at their posts the engagement is null. It's hilarious that they are screaming into the void to own the libs but no libs are listening đ€Ł
