Poast can be quite edgy and obnoxious but I don't think they are Nazis. They will just filter you by posting the most taboo shit they can think of that will offend you into blocking them for entertainment because at a certain point there isn't much else they can do if you hold a set of divisive views that already other them. It's a different approach to what I do.

You can still have reasonable conversations with quite a few of them if you don't do that.

You can still have reasonable conversations with quite a few of them if you don’t do that.

I tried this for over a year. The only person who could have anything resembling rational conversations was the admin, but even he seemed to lose that ability after awhile.

@realcaseyrollins Haha. I suppose it depends on what you mean by rational and it probably depends on the topic at hand. I don't have specific examples off the top of my head since I only see them in my threads here and there.

Over-reacting to someone assuming the "fuck this guy" comment is somewhat more / or less what you meant?... 

@realcaseyrollins @sim @graf Just about this post and image of conversation, seems all good but, if I got it right, the "fuck this guy" comes into play (quite logically somewhat) but perhaps said not as hard as others hear it) so you adjusted the meaning (great all good) but then suddenly graf someone else listen suggests a racial thing and you go into that... almost over-reacting to someone assuming "fuck this guy" is somewhat more / or less what you meant.

Seems like terminating a conversation way more than needed / going on a tangent. Do you get what I mean in just reflecting that in general?

Also asking to see if worth following more (as I guess words and meanings do need to match logic somewhat)

@freeschool @sim @graf I’m not completely sure I follow. Are you saying that I mistook what graf said as anger when in reality it was something more lighthearted?

@realcaseyrollins @graf @sim oops yeah - apologise and 🏃 I exit fast if all is fine with all!

@freeschool @freeschool @graf @sim
Oh no we're not fine. The dude runs a free speech platform yet is probably the thinnest skinned dude on the whole site (not a reference to him probably being white lol). Dude literally blocked me because I made a joke referencing how many #Poast users were Nazis, while praising him for putting up with them...yeah somebody who loses their mind over something small like that isn't gonna get along well with me 😂

@realcaseyrollins @graf @sim It was the nuances of what something might mean that seemed deadly misleading (but I don't mean in jokes or something I missed before though that's included somewhat).

Just as observer hard to tell if someone says something and what it means if they almost use a different vocabulary or more usually emotionally charged one but it not really being used as strongly.

So usually short in length, seemingly emotional can not mean as much and for example my 'fuck you' to someone could be totally light-hearted and even like "I like you" lol but for others coming across it it seems clear they more use these words in for example also saying someone is retarded - like how much they mean that :blobrofl:
So to avoid this I would be tempted not to reply (in fact probably am doing so) as I'd always be 2nd guessing and need to clarify what this or that word means as sort of marker or vocab for them or graf in this case.
Totally light hearted but would even want graf to think I'm making stuff up also - just was oblivious to way language was being used :)

And I could even be wrong still....!

Ok time to use that running away / exit emoji again for talking too much
🚪 🏃 < < ! < < ("so sorry bye!")

General comments about people not using each other mutually on Fediverse and almost checkmate themselves / forcing stalemate... 

@realcaseyrollins
Oh and if it helps I get blocked by like-minded people for trying, so even in good cases it's fairly common because: more activity = more feelings / more and "I don't have for this human communication stuff (even for their own shit 🤣 x100 ) so even if not 'fair' or warranted THIS is what happens I think and is my violin song to to do better and feedback what we need before Fediverse gets literally taken over / overwhelmed.

Hey maybe we should talk more :)

Check out or whatever my side... let me know what you're into and have time for.

Funny how others can't use each other mutually and almost checkmate themselves (or force stalemate rather running into their own corner) although I don't mean anyone here just Fediverse could pool a bit better, make friend, shoot there's a thought!

Happy to hear more experiences about experiences for you on Fediverse (perhaps as DM) as seems common and is a lot to ask for people to trust themself AND give others a try.

"HELLO NO... I'll save the world myself ... alone!"
I'm sure they say to themselves!

"I'm not sharing anything with anyone!"... "but do follow me and then get blocked for trying"
lol

@freeschool @freeschool

I'll give you a follow! Although I must admit that the way you use #English confuses me somewhat. Still, you seem quite good-natured to me.

@realcaseyrollins Ok! Happy to hear also how and why with example... I can also try explain it next time you find something :)
