  • A somewhat similar thing happened to me. Made an admittedly spicy comment on r/FauxMoi on my main account. Got banned from that sub (which was fair). Made a second account months later and inadvertently commented on r/FauxMoi (literally just about a movie premiere date—the story was on my main page) without thinking about my prior account’s ban.

    Got immediately perma-banned for ban evasion. I appealed and was ignored. Oh well.

    And fwiw, you can still view all the content. Just can’t vote/comment. 🤷







  • I hate these takes, I’m sorry, downvote me if you want, but I think the comment was shady.

    You know these people and you’re best equipped to know their intent. If you got homophobic vibes based on your experience with them, trust your gut.

    Writing as a gay man (and ex-vangelical), if I was talking about my crush and someone said that to me, I’d take that as shade. Not earth shattering hate or anything to get super mad about, but yeah I’d be like 😒

    One can avoid these situations by avoiding crazy ass “devout” religious folks :)





  • Propaganda and all that, yes.

    It’s also largely about the fact that—in theory—these are two jobs that involve ‘putting your life on the line’ to protect and defend innocent civilians, and usually in dire circumstances involving dangerous weapons/violent people. (NOT defending cops/US military, but just pointing out why those jobs can be publicly revered.)

    Also, in many/most(?) other countries, shooting two people absolutely would register nationally because civilian gun violence is a big deal and not normal around the world. You happen to live in the one country on the planet where guns vastly outnumber people and mass shootings are a daily regular occurrence.

    But yeah. Propaganda. Mostly that.
