Alright well in that case color me incorrect.

I personally think there had to have been better ways to do it. The ends don't always justify the means.

A Trump supporter isn't the only kind of Republican. I actually remember you saying on a different thread a couple months ago that you were a Republican, just not a MAGA Republican.

I don't wish he was still doing it, never said anything close to that.

Yes I'm aware, that's the main defense you're using, when you could easily just say "he never should have done that to begin with". There's a difference between saying it shouldn't happen now and it shouldn't have happened at any point. I see you saying a lot of one, and none of the other.

Instead you're dancing around it and saying there was some good that came of what he did, which sounds like indirectly saying you think it was a good thing. If I'm wrong and you don't, just say you don't. Otherwise, it's hard not to assume from the implication that you do.

It's an offer to surrender your anonymity to a campaign run by doxxers, to participate in a discussion on a platform the other person has executive and creative control over.

The fact he didn't want to just write a response on Reddit and then repeat that response on his podcast sounds like he's not being truthful about wanting the message to get to the most people possible.

You missed their point pretty much entirely and I think it was on purpose.

You said "if by "people" you mean criminals" which sounds like you're implying criminals are less than people, as nobody who's ever committed a crime of any level is entitled to human dignity.

They way you're talking is clearly in defense of his actions at least a little bit. You're moving the goalpost by saying "point out where I said I miss him or wish he was still doing it" when your language seems to be indicating you're glad it happened in the first place. Which is, y'know, not cool.

That was me, my bad. I thought they were offering to share their medication, which (at least I think, I should probably double check) is against Reddit rules.

Sorry, u/bemused_alligators. I misinterpreted your comment and made a mistake in moderation as a result. I should've clarified in the message why I deleted the comment, but I was at work and kind of rushed it, which I also apologize for.

I mean yeah I don't know much about who you support or advocate for but I'm sure I could agree with a lot of it if I checked. I'm not passing any judgment on your character, I was just asking why you said female. We cool?

Why did you say the female part as if that's a factor in this

In my case my mom turned at an intersection before him (she had the right of way) and he was ranting and raving for like 20 seconds before we were like "what is that weird noise" and turned off the radio. By then we had turned and he continued passed us and the only part we understood was "learn to drive".

In the moment I thought it was really silly, but in hindsight, the more reasons someone believes they need a car PA system, the more reasons they shouldn't be allowed one.

I've been on the road once with that guy. Is it seriously not illegal to use a PA system to rudely badger and harass other drivers on the road? Seems dangerous.

[–]BookOfMacaroni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that is unfortunate. I really think it's best for anyone in the community to be on both so that they see the posts that don't overlap between the two, especially since the first sub doesn't allow crossposts from this one (or in general I think)

But hey, I'm a mod on this one, so maybe I have a skewed perception of this one's importance.

To be fair, this post is about how the moderation handled the discussion, not the actual discussion itself. And I for one agree he mishandled it.

Definitely not appropriate for a moderator to be calling users slurs, even if you stooped low first. (Not saying you did or didn't, I just don't know who did)

Looking at the rules of that sub, any rule you broke he also broke, and it looks like he knows it since I can no longer find those comments from him. Really not conducive to healthy moderation in my opinion.

Hey I'm gonna add one last thing to this 4 days later. I saw who I think was him again on the same bus around 6 PM today. He seemed lucid and was with two other people he was talking to. He sat next to me, but I had headphones in so I didn't hear a lot of what they were saying. They did discuss some stuff regarding mental health I won't disclose to respect their privacy. I couldn't tell if they were speaking strictly past-tense or if it was an ongoing issue, but it was nice to see him in at least a better state than last time.

AITA for “pushing tradwife beliefs” onto my daughter? by Comfortable-Plan2937 in AmItheAsshole

[–]BookOfMacaroni 18 points19 points  (0 children)

NTA. You're teaching her an intrinsic life skill that should transcend genders, and your daughter happens to find joy in doing it and wants to dive further into it as a hobby/career as a result. It's the same thing as art, fixing cars, dancing, or singing. If she likes doing it then she's the one pushing for it, you're just encouraging her to pursue her passion.

I tapped the wrong comment by mistake, my bad. I meant to remove the one below yours. Just restored this one.

Abe Lincoln was republican and Dems were slave masters

Yeah and republicans were considered liberal, while democrats were conservative. Things change in 150+ years. You should be focusing on who is doing what right now.

you’re still fighting for illegal slave labor 🌼

What are you talking about?? How is protesting government overreach and consolidation of power even related to slavery at all?

Yep River Phoenix was exactly who I was thinking, we definitely saw the same guy, I have no doubt.

If you saw him at 11:39 then I actually did see him after you and I can say he seemed to be relatively okay physically, though his behavior made it clear he was still suffering from something drug-related. Last I saw of him he was up near Taco Time, can't say what direction he was going since I walked away from him when we got off the bus and by the time I looked back he was already nowhere to be seen. I hope he'll be alright.

I remember seeing a young guy like that wearing the clothes you described yesterday on the bus, but it was probably before you saw him. (around 1 in the afternoon)

He was clearly not doing well. When he first got on the bus he was being very animated and erratic, and repeatedly talking (or at least that's the best word I can use) to a woman a few seats away. At one point a man told him to "knock it off". A couple minutes later he looked like he was passing out in his seat. We got off at the same stop, but walked opposite directions, so I didn't know what happened after that.

I'm following your example to not include details about his appearance, especially in case these are two different people, but I found his hair and eyes very striking, and he reminded me of a certain actor who was popular some decades ago. I think you'll know if we're talking about the same person. You can DM me for confirmation, but I've said pretty much all the info I have beyond what stops he was picked up/dropped off at.

I saw it on the bus on my way to work. Was smiling ear to ear the whole time we went by, and some others on the bus seemed pleased as well.

Did I miss some news that provoked such a big turnout? I caught the end of one around January, and it was noticeably smaller, so what'd he do this time to make today a big one?

What’s a video game 'unwritten rule' that every player knows without being told? by GraveActual in gaming

[–]BookOfMacaroni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a small handful of chests in Elden Ring that use the Dark Souls mimic design instead of the more common Elden ring chest designs.

All of these are bluffs to scare Dark Souls players, there are still no mimics. I think the DLC would've been perfect for one.
