Excerpt from Yen's comment:

This is not going to be a popular opinion, but on the specific issue of antitrust, Democrats fell short. In 2022, we campaigned extensively in the US for anti-trust legislation. Two bills were ready, with bipartisan support. Chuck Schumer (who coincidently has two daughters working as big tech lobbyists) refused to bring the bills for a vote. In the aftermath of this failure, great people like former Democratic rep David Cicilline left congress, leaving few strong voices for antitrust left in the Democratic party. In the meantime, at a 2024 event covering antitrust remedies, out of all the invited senators, just a single one showed up - JD Vance.

https://old.reddit.com/r/AITAH/comments/1ih3knc/i_28f_caught_my_husband_32m_doing_the_most/

I'm 28F, my husband is 32M.

Not a good start, he's a confirmed groomer.

He's always wanted kids [..] I don't express myself as super excited about it.

Stop wasting his time, b-word!

I've seen so many depressed moms who regret their decision

How many happy mothers do you reckon she's encountered that she completely discounts because she can't relate to them?

Last month was our marriage anniversary [..] he had a gift for me. I was excited. I opened the box and it was so creepy. It was a realistic doll like how a baby looks.

Even the sight of a baby upsets her. This woman is ROTTEN!

I was so creeped out, but I didn't want to ruin the night, so I just said thanked him and went to bed.

Now she's denying s*x to her husband on their anniversary because he actually got her a gift from his heart and not a Stanley cup handbag or whateverthefrick

a few days pass and last night sunday, he went out with his friends. [..] he'd be home late. [..] At 4 AM, I woke up to get ready for my shift. I went downstairs and saw him passed out on the couch. I went closer to wake him up so he wouldn't hurt his back sleeping there.

He would rather risk his back than risk waking up this harpy

Next to him was his drinks. A bottle of lube. And that silicone sticky doll. Without clothes. Placed on his private parts. He was just laying there. Passed out.

This man is so desperate to be a father he used a doll and the lube that his frigid wife needs to simulate the warmth of the child she won't provide him with, and HE'S the monster?

Disturbed. I quietly went upstairs, grabbed some clothes and left. I called in sick and checked into a hotel.

Any reason to get out an honest day's labor with these harlots

i don't know how to tell my friends or family. I'm Indian

EDIT TO THIS POST. A lot of people are asking about picture. Before leaving the house, i took a picture because i knew no one would believe me.

Now admitting to an actual crime, very good!

Or, more likely, this is a bored 20-something troll that realized getting proof made way more sense than running off, not understanding that running off with no proof is what an actual woman would do.

When you're pretending to be a woman you must heed this

Context: /r/LeopardsAteMyFace is a subreddit for reveling in the schadenfreude when someone suffers consequences from something they voted for or wanted to impose on other people. A large majority of the subreddit's existing content comes from posts on Twitter. Following recent events, the mods decided to ban all twitter content, and the community has questions.

Full thread

Highlights

I think screenshots should still be allowed. Banning the Leopard Party main communication channel will be bad for the sub.

So we want people to post screenshots and no link to verify so they have to go searching on twitter for that post to verify? No, ban means ban.

Is that the common reaction though (not being a peepee, genuinely curious)? I've never tried to verify a SS posted here, but that's just me. "Laugh and scroll on" kinda deal with me

The person who went there looking for the shot gave them traffic, anyone verifying gives them traffic, and the goal is just, no traffic. So simply, no traffic for Elon should be the goal.

I can't say I agree with the whole ban of content in general. Links, absolutely. Ban them entirely. But content in general being banned - I mentioned in another thread - is an "head in the sand" kind of methodology. It is still important to have an eye on what's happening and to share to others in order to keep people properly and promptly informed on what's happening. It's also important to know who to call out and who to push back on.

The problem is that viewing, even with adblockers, does in fact finance Nazis (and for a screenshot someone has to view it and as soon as someone fakes a screenshot enough people will head over to Twitter to see if the post is real). And the whole point of this endeavour is to no longer support a Nazi.

Fully in support of banning Xitter links, for sure. But most subs enacting this ban are still allowing screenshots. And I think Xitter is a primary source for a lot of content here, so banning the screenshots in addition to the links could impact this sub pretty severely.

It's time for Twitter to fully die it's deserved death

What, the leopards got so fat they began to eat the source of faces?!

Hey [OP], half this sub is X/Twitter screenshots. You'd be killing the sub. Allowing screenshots should a solid compromise

I remember there being a saying about compromising with Nazis. But if you can't find other nazis on the internet, maybe you're too lazy to post.

that saying doesnt even make sense in this context. twitter is the main source of content for this subreddit, disallowing screenshots of it will severely hurt the subreddit. we're not compromising with nazis, we're trying to compromise with the moderators to continue making fun of nazis.

If you can't find and display Leopards eating faces on the Internet without it in some way helping pay the rent for a Nazi propagandist, I don't want it on this sub and neither should you.

a screenshot of a tweet is not giving anyone income; no one on here looks up the tweet of a face-eating after seeing a screenshot of it. this is an extreme overreaction. links should be banned, banning screenshots is just gonna hurt the sub. we've become the faces and the leopards

I'm sorry your education system has not prepared you for this moment, but you're currently fighting FOR the hill with the Nazi flag planted in it, so I'm done listening to your opinion on how engagement works.

I'm sorry you're blinded by your knee-jerk reaction. you're fighting for the death of this sub (a sub for making fun of the people you think this decision will hurt). you've got your priorities backwards here

Who needs enemies to tear this sub apart when you have allies like these?

Good call. No screenshots is going to tank this sub, but too much schadenfreude is probably bad for you anyway.

schadenfreude is one of the few things we can enjoy going forward.

[And by all means, do. But imbibe responsibly ... taking pleasure in other people's pain is what they usually do after all. At some point we have to make sure that we stay better than them.](https://sh.reddit.com/r/LeopardsAteMyFace/comments/1i7h4ss/comment/m8lkpri/

Didn't this last election show us what taking the high road gets you? Frick them. I'm done trying to lead horses to water.

"but muh screenshots! the content!" Screenshots still encourage a non-zero amount of people to use the Nazi-owned site. If a sub that's dependent on content from a Nazi platform fades away because it won't support a Nazi, it's a worthwhile loss.

Then why are you on a sub depending on content from a nazi platform?

Screenshots need to be allowed! That's the main source of content for this sub. This is ridiculous.

Your opinion is ridiculous. Screenshots amplify the sites influence even without links.

Well good luck showing leopards eating people's faces when this sub just banned screenshots from the place where those people primarily hang out.

Yeah, cause there's no other way to communicate stupid shit from the right. /s

It's ill-advised strategies and virtue signaling that helped put Dems in this current position. The schadenfreude sub needs to be able to show schadenfreude. Looking at rightoids freak out is this sub's purpose. Turning off the BEST source of schadenfreude is contrary to that purpose. Scraping Facebook and random conservative subreddits is not the same. Let the other subs worry about amplifying messages.

We need screenshots. Half this subreddit is Xitter screenshot

I'm entirely in favour of banning links, but banning screenshots is going too far.

the less people care that xitter exists the better for everyone.. screenshots stops direct traffic but continues to give publicity to the nazis website which is what he feeds from. the internet is pretty big, pretty much unlimited I think we can find lots of content elsewhere.

Banning screen shots is (I'll put this nicely) shortsighted. Although moderators ruining their own subreddit by being shortsighted and heavy handed is a tale as old as Reddit.

Finally, now this sub can die.

Yeah not allowing SS kinda kills this sub.

"not allowing SS" is kinda the point

Game to Discuss?

Goat Simulator. I truthfully forgot about this game from the moment I last closed it (around 7 years ago) til about a week ago, when I'd forgotten whatever it was I'd originally wanted to say about Satisfactory. I have just under an hour of play time, representing a single playing session, and half-memories of the madcap mixture of genres, outright bugs, "bugs," and attempts at humor which probably come off as dated, even to the erudite and learned rdrama dot net. I guess there's also somehow a remaster of the game, which is if nothing else an indictment of our culture's inability to make anything new, instead preferring to "remaster" (theoretically) intentionally bad games. Discuss below, and vote in the pinned comment.

Some asswipe that does this to another person's property deserves an butt whipping.Someone is going to get the crap beaten out of them if caught and I'm sure the anti Musk Reddit fricks will scream bloody murder.Also in some states, vandalism of a car that does not belong to you is a felony. Yep, go to prison and have your life ruined because you don't like Elon. (1)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Wow. So vandalism is okay with you? Sadly I'm not surprised. Your tolerance is pretty thin. And you scream police brutality when arrested for committing crimes. If the driver had gotten out, and a fight started, you'd be screaming on reddit about how a racist attacked and beat the man. Found out he was .01 percent native American and then screamed it was a hate crime attack. Then protested. Same old same old. (1)

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

I dont think it's a great vehicle. I dislike Elon. Tesla is overrated.But wtf did this guy do to deal with this crap? He's already made the mistake of buying this thing, now he's gotta deal with buttholes who do entitled shit for views?This is just fricking stupid. (1)

Anyway remittances from the US account for 3% of Colombia's GDP so a single deportation flight is pretty devastating to their national economy. And the threats worked immediately

https://www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/2025/01/26/trump-colombia-deportation-flights-migrants-tariffs/

So we are thankfully not going to be deprived of all the many things Colombia exports here. I don't know what those things are besides coffee and cocaine but X (formerly Twitter) informs me it's a lot and very important. Crisis averted.
