I answered all of their "prerequisite/verification" questions. Mostly my answers were of the variety of "Amerikkka imperializes the planet for the 1%" and "it's not the left vs right, it's the 99% vs the 1%"

They gave me a LOT of push-back for not acknowledging the "genocide" in China. But it really went downhill when I said that the imperialism of Ukraine by both USA and the Russian was/is a fairly nuanced topic.

Obama Admits US Role in Ukraine Overthrow

Pro-US, Nazi-glorifying government

Ultranationalism, anti-semitism, neo-nazi pogroms, and attacks on LGBT groups.

Ultimately I ended with, "Every war is a banker's war" and included I was against any/all imperialist movements (including Afghanistan, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Haiti, Congo, Liberia, and Sudan), but I could definitely see why NATO advancing, despite saying they wouldn't move a single inch towards Moscow, would incite a push from Russia to get their old trade buddy back (not to mention Blackrock/JPM front-running grain futures before the invasion and then vying to steal the mineral rights away from Ukraine in exchange to build it back up)

This really set the feds off..

"OH YOU HATE JEWS DO YA?" - 'Leftist' Alternative

"Wait... huh?" - Me

"A 'Bankers' War Huh??? We could just tell you were an anti-Semite"

"Are you insinuating.. that all Bankers are... jewish?" - Me

It immediately devolved into ad-hominems from the "lefties" so I left that right-wing hell-hole :(

Is Every "Leftist" Discord a Fed Honeypot?

Or are the lib brainworms really just that deeply ingrained at this point?

What if we made a bad chat room, a bad forum, an bad wiki, an bady video chat program, and then we somehow convinced everyone to use it?

I hate discord so much. Just an awful program that does many things badly and none well.

They got the gamers hooked early with their overlay and game integration. I think it was lack of comparable options and a twist of lazyness and disdain with classical irc and later matrix comms.

Discord and pretty much every other one of these web services knows they can keep making them shittier and spy on you and share your chats with anyone they want. They know their userbase is so large and they lack the will to find/make something better for themselves so they'll never leave. Its basically electronic imperialism.
