    I’m sure I’m famous because I’m allegedly a Russian troll and a Nazi sympathizer that promotes slavery in China because I eat chocolate sometimes.

    Quite the character, huh?

    I see a lot of posts from @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world.

    They post good memes, insightful comments, moderates a few communities I think.

    probably not a real squid though, I don’t think they got internet in the ocean

      I am currently visiting some friends I’ve been talking to on a forum for years but have never met. We’ve all been really close despite that. It’s sort of a three-day forum party and it’s been amazing.

      Why do I bring this up?

      I needed a shirt to wear for the first day so I didn’t have to keep telling people who I was and I found the perfect shirt. (Excuse the crease, I took the picture the day after.)

      Edit: are the downvoters disillusioned by the revelation of my false endoskeleton?

        Until this thread, I didnt realize so many Lemmy users had an issue with Flying Squid. Perhaps its because I tend to agree with a lot of his takes, but I just find him abrasive at worst. Like…unafraid to not sugarcoat an uncomfortable truth.

        Dudes definitely everywhere though.

            Rumors of my only having good opinions about everything that everyone should agree with have been greatly exaggerated.

            But if I have offended you by being wrong about something, I apologize.

              Not offended, more just dumbfounded that someone could honestly not see how that is obviously a terrible idea.

                See above, re me not always having good opinions about everything.

                I cannot help being severely flawed. It comes with the whole homo sapiens thing.

                But good for you not having any opinions most people in a certain community you’re in disagree with. That must be very nice for you.

                  So what you are saying (through an incredibly thick layer of condescension) is that you know your belief is wrong. And instead of changing your belief, you would rather maintain it, knowing it is wrong. That’s just bizarre.

        Be careful pointing that out on forums they moderate or they’ll ban you for “mod harassmenr.”

        Power users and power mods are cancer.
