      After everything Ukrainian people have been through you want to complain about profanity. Fuck off.

      Ukrainian children are being murdered, kidnapped and tortured everyday by deranged russian terrorists.

      If you can’t recognize this massive sarcastic comparison between war and profanity, you’re not ready for the internet.

      Watching you humor is like seeing the hands of the maestro at work. It may be time to start adding the slash S, but I can’t fully express how f***ing much I respect that you don’t.

          /a started to be used because the context can be so ambiguous. It isn’t needed when no-one would honestly say what was said. Unfortunately, the bar for that is so low now, it’s practically an underground pipe.

          It also removes the “it was a joke, don’t get so uptight” argument, when they get called out for being a racist prick etc.

            You think trolls are the people on the receiving end and not the losers making these “jokes”?

            Fucking hell the Internets gone to shit.

              I think the trolls are the actual shill trolls that I’ve been arguing with (for over a week) about the current genocide in Gaza. Accounts like Grant m and downpunxx, who I’m talking to at the bottom of this thread.

              If you don’t like Ivans black humor that’s fine, but go read through it, there’s pain in all of it. Don’t like some persons way of processing shit? Fine, but you don’t need to try shame them for it like some kind of public flogging. Your not the mayor of internet town, if you don’t like it move on with your life or maybe try to understand it.

              Whether or not you get this, I wasn’t calling you stupid. I’m calling people that came in here to say a few passing bullshit things and collect points on their propaganda accounts stupid. And yes I’m calling them stupid for the same thing, but also a very different reason. Go down there and look. It’s just a karma circle jerk. Nothing more. They don’t actually give a shit. They just want to type 3-5 words and harvest votes.

              What purpose do you find in your outrage? I have supported and followed the war in Ukraine since the globalhawks and rivet joints were first circling the black sea. I watched the radar and flight paths of the last Turkish cargo planes to land in Kyiv before the airspace went dark and the invasion began. I check 3 different maps, 2 times a day to see if any progress has been made pushing off the landing on the west banks of the Dnipro, or in the stalled pocket offensive at Robotney, or holding off the encirclement of Avdivka. Short of volunteering to go over there I’ve done nearly everything I can to help and you think me standing up for a person who didn’t make the best joke in the world is the bridge too far?

              What the fuck are you talking about? Because it only sounds like shit you didn’t know, because you didn’t ask. Directionless outrage without any dialogue? That is literally the internet. It’s been this shit since I can remember and I’m sure it was shit before that.

              Make it better! I don’t know if fighting back against what are likely state sponsored trolls does that, but I really couldn’t take them shitting on everyone for caring about human lives anymore. If you’ve gotta a better way than calling them out and embarrassing them then let me know. I’m just one of a handful of users that are pushing back with zero coordination. It’s not always going to look or feel great. I’m sorry for that and I’m sorry you felt hurt, offended or caught in the middle. Genuinely.

              You’re not the mayor, I’m not the sheriff, we’re just people trying to do our best. And that’s OK.
