Out of This World! No wonder the name looked weird to me. I had to look it up because it's been so long I forgot the name!

I don't know about favorite, but a game I remember playing ball in the Nintendo, super Nintendo days was a game called Another World. Never met another person who has played it except one of it irl friends. Wikipedia claims it's one of the best video games ever made, oddly.

Kind of a platformer, kind of a puzzler, very surreal.

That game is the shit. It's even easy to play on Windows now, which was very much not the case back in the day.

In my 30 seconds of research I didn't find any verification of that, but I did see a woman is pressing charges for assault on him. According to her she went to his door, rang the doorbell, and he opened the door, pepper sprayed her, then pushed/kicked her down the stairs. Added bonus story portion of the police not wanting to do their jobs.

For this to be true, a MAGA diehard would have to have listened to an explanation of what a tariff is from a left leaning person they are trying to taunt, understood the explanation, and believed the explanation that left leaning person gave them that disagrees with what Trump has said.

I have no doubt many MAGA types could understand the explanation, but when in gloat mode, I seriously doubt much listening would happen. Even if they did listen, the chances of them believing that explanation over Trump's seem low to me.

I got one that sounded even more threatening. Said your voting record is public, which is sketchy as fuck and implies who you vote for is public as well, but skirts actually saying it. It does, however, not explicitly say who you for for is secret either.

Casual Ohio voter suppression, nbd.

Failing to denounce Hamas, Palestinian journalist attacks bullet using his head as a cudgel.

I've had a tag on the user I think you're referencing for a minute now. It's quite helpful.

I didn't down vote you, for what it's worth. I just felt like adding my two cents. Every time someone criticizes Israel they get accused of being pro Hamas, so that's why I'm skeptical of that particular claim. That's all.

I don't know what her view on Hamas is, but I'd be surprised if it were positive. Everyone protesting Israel's genocide is accused of being pro Hamas 100 times a second, so I think that explanation is weak on its face.

The problem with riling up crazy people is they are crazy, and as a result somewhat unpredictable.

Overall though they seem connected: not wanting to defederate from either lemmy.ml with its constant calls for guillotines (I mean... not that I don't understand the reason for such:-) or from hexbear.net, mainstream users are being turned away.

If I hadn't found a way to block Hexbear I'd have been gone. It took me about 2 weeks to realize the users that were the most insufferable to me were largely all from there, and I was a hair from quitting Lemmy because of it. So, for me at least you have it exactly right.
