    Man, that constant “I’m the only adult in the room” vibe you try to have is getting obnoxious old.

    Yeah, I fucking agree. It’s getting real old being the only adult in the room. I didn’t realize the admins of most Lemmy instances were just winging it, thinking “Well, when it comes crashing down, it comes crashing down 😊”

    Utter zero-foresight techbro shite. Jesus Christ.

      Sadly You’re not the real adult in the room. You’re just a smuglord who’s way too high on the smell of their own farts.

        Legit, I thought you took your instance more seriously than this. This is basic covering-your-ass shit.

          I am not inclined to seriously discuss our instance with people who act obnoxiously.

            Well, then I hope you find someone non-obnoxious to discuss it with. Because if you’re actually interested in dbzer0 as more than a hobbyist project that breaks when-it-breaks, being able to address and head off legal issues is core to the long-term survival of a site. Whereas acting like being wary of the laws of forces that absolutely can royally fuck your site is fundamentally unreasonable rather than a very real threat that must be addressed one way or another is a great way to get… well, royally fucked.

              The law is a spook. You seem to fundamentally misunderstand the purpose of db0

                Exactly. Foucault argued that you can tell when a group has been subjugated, because they start to self-police according to the oppressor’s rules. From a liberal perspective, the state is desirable, so an individual internalizing and following the state’s laws is desirable.

                But from an anarchist perspective, the state is oppressive (and especially so for a fascist state) so internalizing and following the state’s laws is tantamount to self-subjugation. And following the laws of a fascist state is acting in support of the fascist state.

                  I didn’t realize anarchism meant never picking which battles to fight at a given time and arena.

                    There is a group of Lemmy users that use the “law” to justify their censorship behavior and demands.

                    It is getting tiring.

                    But sure if instance owner doesn’t wants young people posting on there, they can just block. This silly reasons are just silly though.

                    Just say you don’t want to deal with it and move on.

                    This appeal to authorita is disingenuous IMHO

                    Not necessarily, e.g., if they align with your values. But age restricting access to a general purpose platform seems very nanny state to me.

                    Obeying laws that serve no purpose is a bootlicker exercise

                    It depends on your opinion. Anarchy isn’t a prescriptive unitary ideology, and it’s got a lot of different things behind it and subgroups and whatever. You can have Stirner’s Egoist perspective on laws, being that you just follow whatever laws suit your own ego, or you can have the Illegalists’ perspective on laws, that they’re all worth breaking.

              • I don’t think he does, I think he’s just your classic bootlicker who fundamentally is against everything that dbzer0 stands for, maybe us leftists as a whole too. After looking through his history I have a hard time believing he isn’t an alt-right troll.
