The recent events with the defederation of Fosstodon, one of the
largest independent Mastodon instances for FOSS people and
enthusiasts, has been the last straw for me. I don't use Fosstodon,
but I'm tired of all the BS of radical people who pollute FOSS
communities. In recent years there have been many episodes of this BS
like the Stallman cancellation or the Godot drama.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about the good old day real wokes,
I'm talking about all this extremist idiots who think they're
something like modern Moses with stone tables and call everyone who
disagrees with them a nazi or a fascist. All this self called leftists
who make real leftists ashamed of saying they're leftists, and all the
idiots who follow their trends just to get some boosts and likes.
I disagree with all extremists, far-right and far-left, because an
extremist basically it's an idiot who is unable to reason for himself
and it's unable to dialogue with other people. There is a saying which
says: "Violence is the resource of the unfit". Well, extremists as a
whole are unfit.
It's really depressing to see how our societies have declined so much
that there are a lot of people who think it's right to threaten other
people by hiding behind the excuse of social justice. I'm talking
about people who 10 years ago would have threatened others and called
them nazis and antisemites for saying something against Israel or
against a Jew, and now they feel they have every right to insult and
campaigning against Israel and the Jews[1]. These are the same idiots
who, being white cis people, try to make you ashamed of being a white
cis person.
Every time I see all this self called egalitarians diminishing a
community or a group of people to "empower" another, I can't stop to
be amazed by the ignorance of all of them. Who the hell do they think
they're to determine which lives are worth more and which are worth
less? Do you know who did that? Yes, exactly: the nazis.
It's depressing to see how all these people talk about social justice
while defending and promoting what they call reverse racism, reverse
sexism and all that shit. No guys, don't fool yourself and don't try
to fool us neither, you're exactly the same shit you tell you're
fighting against. You're the nazis and the fascists because there are
no reversisms. Sexism is sexism and racism is racism, period. There is
no good and bad racism, there is no good and bad sexism, the very same
as there is no good and bad hatred.
I really believe that all these people are the real culprits of the
resurgence of the far-right, because regular people are tired of the
so-called wokes and their wokeism. People are tired of having to shut
up for fear of being called nazis, being threatened, being canceled,
and other reprisals for not thinking exactly like this bunch of
intolerants who hide behind social justice.
I've kept quiet myself until now because of those fears, but I fear no
more. Enough is enough. So if you are one of those ignorant people who
damage the good name of the left with your extremist propaganda and
cheap demagoguery, I want to tell you that people are tired of all
your BS. Stop pointing fingers. If you want to see a Nazi, just check
in the mirror.
