‘Rummler is now blind in his left eye, his tear duct has been destroyed and the “flaps of my eye are barely holding on,” he said. Doctors found pieces of plastic and glass in his skull as well as metal in his stomach lining, and “pulled a piece of plastic the size of a nickel from my eye,” he said.’

      Is that Threads? If so, f**k Threads. I participated around election time. It was overrun (and probably silently still is) with reich wing troll farm tools and bots. The month or two leading up to the election saw a flood posts that were outright lies regarding grocery prices, gas prices, housing prices, racist, AI images JAQing off, immigration and a dozen other easily verifiable hotbutton issues that were twisted up into lies.

      And as soon as trump won?

      Dead f***ing silence. They all went dark.

      I deleted my account. It’s every bit the cesspool of bots and trolls as Twitter is.

        Indeed - it’s a psychology that watches Starship Troopers, or plays Helldivers II, and unironically chants the over-the-top, jingoistic slogans present therein, completely unaware that the slogans as well as large parts of the game/movie itself is pointed satire.

      They’re incels. They love it when someone fucks them. Doesn’t matter in what context.

      The first one (which is one of the most recent ones) is likening the other replies to the kind of genocidal, demented comments Zionists make about Palestinians
