@freemo oh no I’ve made a huge mistake ;)

@saxis Truth is you will find a lot of asshats willingn to argue here too. But compared to twitter the amount of engaging, valuable, human interactions are much greater. so it atleast makes the shitty people worth dealing with.

@freemo great! It’d be a little sus w/o some argument tbh

@saxis It is the internet afterall :)

@freemo and it would be nothing w/o flame wars

@saxis Flame wars are the whole reason I got into tech :")

@freemo @saxis Tbf I've already been told to off myself and have seen slurs roaming freely.

@vern

Sounds like you met poa.st already then :)

@saxis

@freemo @saxis Actually the person insinuating suicide was from eintein.og iirc

@freemo @saxis Is poa.st especially toxic?

@vern

The worst of the worst really. They thrive on just attacking people in the nastiest ways they can conceive

@saxis

@freemo @saxis Do you perhaps know which politics/ideology they perscripe to?

@vern

Clearly a right wing one from what I've seen, but not much beyond that. They mostly just hop on any thread and start throwing out racial slurrs and anything else they can come up with.

@saxis

@freemo @saxis Ah that seems quite in line with my expectations. I'll aim to stay clear :)

Thank you for the heads up!

@derickflorian definitely! That’s a great mindset and I hope to live by it here.
