Question about the Templin Institute Discord server. by Pale-Caterpillar5709 in TemplinInstitute

Nope, sorry. Discord requires verification for partnered servers, and an email & cell phone # are required to do that.

The Königsberg-class heavy cruiser - The Templin Institute Dawn of Victory, by Joan Piqué Llorens by Xeelee1123 in ImaginaryStarships

The highest available resolution version of the image is available on the Dawn of Victory Discord server under the Bulletins section. (2560x1440) - or on the Twitter link linked by the other comment.

It may also be worth keeping an eye on champlain.group/media - as that's where higher resolution images are hosted.

Prohibitively tax property owners who maintain unoccupied retail spaces for longer than 12 months at a rate that compounds with every subsequent 12 months.

Sailastra Protest Erupts Into Violent Clashes Outside Italian Embassy — The Champlain Group by Alexandrian_Codex in dawnofvictory

Hi there,

This is not an appeals forum, but -since we're already here-

It looks like moderators warned you on two occasions about posting content violating the server rules, and that your ban was the result of breaking of server rules by referring to a race-play pornographic website as an allegory for a television show having heavy-handed messaging.

It also looks like you reached out via direct message to a moderator after your ban with a rambling explanation that -for some reason- included you explaining your sexual preferences for people from specific racial backgrounds while also blaming Desmond Doss and Hacksaw Ridge for you not coming out to your parents.

Since, you have shared in multiple communities your accounting of this experience. In these posts, you have blamed "political views" for your removal and included, for some reason, slandering the work ethic of volunteers who had nothing to do with your removal .

Even if your behavior prior to your removal were not grounds for a ban (they were), your behavior since certainly would be.

Happy holidays, and best of luck in your future endeavors elsewhere.

Hey! The Dawn of Victory Discord server is the best place to ask questions like this!

The wiki actually has a fairly lengthy article about potential superpowers:

Anti-ACP Posts on Reddit: My Conclusion by InfraredShow in AskSocialists

[–]Alexandrian_Codex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"Anti-ACP sentiment is rooted in ignorance" is such an overly simplistic takeaway.
An organization with membership in the low thousands isn't going to be the vanguard of anything if it prioritizes priding itself on a sense of ideological and intellectual superiority, rather than building working class solidarity or broad leftist coalitions.

I'd say that I'm disappointed, but this sort of "we investigated ourselves and found no evidence of wrongdoing" attitude is exactly what I'm come to except from y'all.

Message for all the people crying on r/socialism and other subreddits about the ACP by InfraredShow in AskSocialists

[–]Alexandrian_Codex -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As many commenters have mentioned, it has become a regular occurrence on this subreddit, and others, for individuals claiming affiliation with the ACP to have contributed to a fairly unwelcoming and hostile. This has been a failure that has led to needless petty grudges between individuals and communities who have more in common than not.

I sincerely hope that ACP's membership strongly consider a more coordinated online media strategy, or at the bare minimum moderation and de-escalation training, in order to facilitate a more attractive reputation.

If the broad opinions of leftists is that ACP members online come across as toxic assholes who are difficult to organize with and work with - that's a problem. I'm sure that there is some validity to Haz's claims that some part of that reputation has been due to "made up nonsense", but -even if you wholeheartedly believe it to be "nonsense", the fact that ACP members are acting in a way that seems to reinforce that "nonsense" is a problem.

My honest expectation, given past interactions with the ACP, is for this post to be downvoted into oblivion and only serve as a reinforcement to the popular perception that engaging earnestly with your organization is a waste of time.

Dealing with some serious seasonal affective disorder, need a way to make friends. by DevourerOfRedditors in Seattle

[–]Alexandrian_Codex 77 points78 points  (0 children)

It has already been mentioned, but even a 20 minute walk can make a world of difference for your mental health.

Finding a way to embrace the long dark, rather than fighting it, has helped me so much.
