in which PugJesus makes a post about ‘solidarity’ and immediately bans any anarchist he disagrees with.
I get that tankiejerk is a circlejerk comm, but the hypocracy in this post was so rank I couldn’t resist commenting. Obviously I was perm banned within minutes
PJ says:
but when someone says to you “I’m an anarchist, I organize to alleviate suffering at the grassroots level”, the correct response is “Right on, comrade”, even if you think state institutions are the optimal solution.
Me:
I’m an anarchist, I organize locally. It’s a big part of my daily life. based on my experiences I have found way more common cause with so-called ‘tankies’ than liberals when it comes to actually working to oppose the shit that’s crushing us.

Thank you for following up. I’m pretty easy-going about most of the false things said about me, and can laugh them off. But suicide is something I have very personal experience with in my family, so that comment got me more irked than usual.
As infamous as my name is, even most of the imposters are banned by now (I think). So I find it very hard to believe that even someone faking my username would have been able to follow the poster around and say that stuff for long. Until I see a screenshot, I’m calling BS on the entire story.
From what I know of him, Quill is being sincere, and I do believe that it happened. But as I said my money is on it being a troll account.
Yeah, I agree w you now. And the guy seems sincere to me too, so all good now. Thank you for your help in this!
All the posts are gone now. This was about 9 months ago so I haven’t kept any records. I don’t know how that fits into any timelines. Again, I’m sorry about this genuine misunderstanding
Hey brother, no worries, no harm. Thanks for being open enough to look into it and update things. I made plenty of enemies on Lemmy because I advocate for free speech, third-party voting, socialism, and diversity of opinions. And they got even more angry when they found out they couldn’t bully me off of Lemmy. So they started troll accounts, misrepresent what I say and stand for, etc.
I’m glad you’re not one of those enemies. I got no beef with you and thank you for the updates.
