Hello, it's Kirby's friend again, I've made a post some time ago where I asked if Kirby can be brought back here in order to have an online safe space since he's been going through a lot in the past few months. But as soon as he found out about this through a friend from here on Discord, the other day I got a phone call from him where he told me that he doesn't want to get back even if allowed for a number of reasons.

We didn't see each other in person until recently so he didn't get the chance to explain me why, but when I went to his place we had a discussion about it and he told me the reasons he doesn't want to be back.

Again, this is what he told me, I don't know whether or not this is true but I wanted to ask regardless:

He told me that the reason he was here for years is because he expected it to be a serious leftist website where he could engage and talk to people with same political opinions, and that stuff he encountered on here caused him to want to quit months before he was even banned, which he didn't because there isn't any other leftist space online that he knew of. Things that he told me he experienced here includes: dealing with tedious vegans, defending of pedophilia (this was before all the recent Epstein events, it was about Demi Moore if I recall correctly), constant boring talk about gender and false accusations rather than serious engagement. He said that despite some of the users here being from Global South like he expected, most of the users here are western and that despite being communist, have the same way of thinking about unimportant matters and ''first world problems'' like average westerner which is completely different than that of the rest of the world.

Regardless of that being true or not, he doesn't want to come back because of it and requested of me to ask you on his behalf to delete all of his content and alts that remained, which includes:all of his remaining posts and comments that didn't get deleted and alt account Burnin.

Before I leave, I just wanted to tell you that, ask and have a discussion about this website and Kirby's experience on it.

Thank you in advance.

Are you back again?! For a website you claim to hate, you sure do show up a lot. Are you looking for some kind of closure here that you haven't gotten yet? What the fuck do you want?

I'm not going to get pulled into responding to your tedious fucking posts yet again. I've done that the last 2 times and I'm not doing it again. You're not willing to listen to the things people tell you. You're not willing to change your mind about your bigotries. And so I'm no longer willing to spend my time trying.

Please just leave since you hate this website so much

[–] Djole2033@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Which exact bigotries are you talking about I ask you?

Just answer the question, is the userbase here predominantly western?

[–] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 0 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I've told you a bazillion times which bigotries. You already know.

And probably? I don't think there's any way to know for sure, but we are talking in english on the internet, so yeah, probably the website we're using is predominantly western

[–] Djole2033@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

believes babies born with ambiguous genitalia should be forced to undergo surgery

Who said that?

He didn't, he talked about ambiguous genitalia which is for some reason such a huge problem to you to the point of making it such a big deal like he gunned down a bunch of innocent civilians in broad daylight.

[–] Djole2033@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago

so yeah, probably the website we’re using is predominantly western

Now it suddenly all makes sense.

I blocked Kirby aaaages ago cause they were a huge sophist about carnism, they came across as a real fart smeller master debater, a true Redditor in spirit. So it does not surprise me that Kirby has turned out to have it out for intersex people, too. It's the exact sort of possessive casual cruelty and "conveyor belt" mentality towards fellow human beings I was trying to warn about. So if people have grown wise to this character and they've been banned from Lemmygrad since I last had the displeasure of interacting with them, I'm glad. If they're doing this sort of pathetic sock puppetry out of a weird obsession, it's risible.

Do you even hear yourself when you talk?

[–] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 0 points 2 weeks ago

It is indeed pretty ridiculous that there's a post like this every couple of months, apparently. I keep thinking "ok, this has got to be the last one from this person, for sure this time!" And so far it hasn't been.

I'm not surprised Kirby is a shithead carnist too, good call on blocking them early! I wish I were better about doing that with accounts that get under my skin, rather than trying to argue with them, because that's so pointless so much of the time!

seeing this drama for the first time. i don't think they let you back in kirby

lmao

[–] puppygirlpets@hexbear.net 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

ngl this is just pathetic now

[–] Djole2033@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What's really pathetic is a website compromised of a bunch of mfs who get angry and ban people over nothing instead of engaging in actual conversations and talking things out.

[–] puppygirlpets@hexbear.net 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

nah fam being so pressed over getting banned from a website that you come back multiple times pretending to be other people is way more pathetic

[–] Djole2033@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Just roll with it if you're so sure of it, if you want to talk to Kirby, that's fine, I'll hand him over the account since from everything I've been told and seen about this website, people don't here want to engage in meaningful conversations and just tell what the problem is, so instead of that just ban over nothing.

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I don't know what's going on here but I think you need to touch grass.

You're looking for a specific type of community that is willing to engage with your bad faith nonsense. This really isn't the place for that and that isn't by mistake. Something tells me you're well aware of that because other members have probably tried to beat that into you a while ago. And if you're, for whatever reason not aware, well, understand that that is the case now. You should probably go forth and delete all of your "friend" Kirby's posts and alt accounts as you said you were slated to do. And then, just go find happiness elsewhere, because clearly this mostly-Western-or-not platform isn't bringing you any of that. Find happiness.

How can a website be a serious communist space dedicated to anti imperialism and Global South if it's userbase is predominantly western, focuses on first world problems and bans it's users over insignificant things on a whim just like Reddit? I don't get how does that work and how can anyone else who doesn't go along with this stuff be here.

[–] Orcinus@lemmygrad.ml 0 points 2 weeks ago

I've had my own problems with this site and its westerness, but would you rather westerners congregate into fascist websites or something? Maybe westerners trying to be communist should be seen as a good thing.
