Unfortunately it looks like Jefferoo was a Lowtax ban so he should probably be freed on general principle. I take no pleasure in reporting this.

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

A time out from one's entire social media platform all at once fucks people up in a variety of ways that never get discussion because the person literally can't discuss any further. Doesn't matter if you think they should expect it, when it's undeserved and has an unknown effect.

yeah, it’s not like this ban is owning taintrunner, because it just means that cspam let an abusive piece of poo poo get away with being an abusive piece of poo poo since it was written off as a gimmick or whatever, because his posting didn’t cross the right lines, I guess? and because other posters kept jumping to his defense

otoh, even the worst things are funny if your brain is broken enough

e: I didn’t read the succzone and I’m probably assuming his posts were worse than they actually were

sorry, I wasn’t trying to make light of abusive situations, there’s just a type of discourse that sets of my alarms and sometimes people post that way.

I’m glad he was banned and it’s good people aren’t sticking up for him now.

It's skippable, unless you want to engage in the discourse around it. It reads like Greg Egan fan fiction.

Can't post for 9 years!
Please guys try to elevate the right voices. No more taintrunners. When you elevate posters whose gimmick involves being aggressive, confrontational, clout chasing freaks, they invariably end up being lovely people. No, this doesn't apply to a lot of you. You will be doing no introspection.

Quite honestly, I am surprised DSA rejected taintrunner. they have lots of wealthy rapists in their ranks.
