6 days agoI don’t hate anarchists, I hate people that fucking cosplay as anarchists.
Edit: some of you over there are alright, if not great, but unfortunately the “super cool” theming of the instance doesn’t really help. Some people see anarchism as just some cool thing, while they would be willing to punch down on service workers just to prove a point. This is a fun example of why it’s better for me to just not engage.
I might run into you at union action or protests on the same side, but this is just exhausting.
Someone from there boasting about littering in govt and corporate owned places, and me getting pissed about the strain that puts on the minimum wage cleaners that are already stressed enough as is, and seeing the response to that from others - that ended up making me lose my cool in a bad way that I’d like to avoid from happening.
I’m pretty sure all of the context has been nuked, and I’m sorry if one instance has made me unfairly mark it as a place to avoid for my own sanity and personal growth goals.
