Took way too long to get approved, I've actually deleted discord after Iran found out it was used for ping scanning just like WhatsApp and Messager by Zionists for drone targeting. Why even bother with opsec when your social media snitches.

"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

nah, these vetting questions are getting more and more over the top, we’re expected to spend hours formulating responses, not knowing if we’re being tricked (because trick questions are now a regular thing) - this is not how you vet people, and i certainly won’t go through all that to be on discord.
obviously it’s not just the deprogram, there are plenty of servers in the fediverse that also use vetting questions to showcase their big brain
competitive individualism makes us endlessly exploitable by bad actors, feds, and wreckers. what do they want? personal gain, personal achievement, and elevated social status.
i’m gonna be honest, i’m still pretty aggravated by what happened in this community this afternoon - there was a post that warranted serious discussion. not to scold the comrade who wrote it. in fact, we all need to take some responsibility for letting this type of “neoliberal left anti-left” mindset take root and flourish. we can’t just change spaces and expect everything to be better for it. the character of the space depends on the social interaction within.
there were the makings of a thoughtful discussion about cultural hegemony but it got deleted bc one person was embarrassed so nobody learns a thing and these dangerously wrong ideas still go unchallenged.
that was a perfect opportunity to discuss ways to recognize it, root it out and resist so we don’t just end up reproducing reddit over here. vetting questions can’t protect us when the feds are inside the house. case in point.
(is that how you say case in point?)
i would have joined more than a year ago but the vetting is just too annoying so I don't bother
