Background: Reddit gave jannies tools to stop evil bad faith posterers from keeping their bad faith posts visible to the poor innocent readers of the Redditsphere. If you downvote a thread enough, you can get a post removed. Joe Truax the /r/GuyCry grifter scammer, has it set to remove a thread if it gets enough downvotes. Joe Truax has gotten several accounts banned, so he is ban evading on any new account. Lil ol' me always stalks his profiles and gets him banned, and he recently had another meth fueled meltdown on his /u/PromoterOfGOOD account. He had a sneaky janny account /u/Dry-Ad-9597 that was also ban evading and got banned. Teeeheeee Getting jannies banned makes me so happy.

From what I can tell, you can get a post removed if it reaches 50% downvoted. On a big sub, you couldn't get a thread to 50% just with a few alts. but on a small sub you can get a thread to 50% easy.

This thread is an example. It was up for only an hour before it got downvoted to 50% and auto-removed. I frickin love AI!

ETA: Frick he got it re-approved. Still though, Reddit crowd control AI is frickin amazing shit to harass Redditors with.

When we'll get the gameplay duh im tired of these posts (2)

When we get the gameplay duh what? I don't need to see gameplay to know how to build her, I can read her kit and make my own determinations. If you don't like people discussing Sam on the Sam subreddit then step to another sub (-9)

yeah i don't know why people are trying to force crit play style, i've seen it with other characters too. i personally find new play styles fun and they keep the game fresh (5)

bc superbreak fly sucks butt. it lows her ceiling then why would anyone play ff over boothill. she looks like a boothill wannabe when hybrid is her identity. thats why they divided 250/360 too.critfly is easy to play ditch hmc and use 2/2 atk set and get 250 be. that way u get 180 speed and get 80% crit rate with misha lc. (-1)

Do guys realize multipliers aren't the sole reason that makes crit good but also the dmg% and/or crit buffs in the kit… of which firefly has none (2)

In addition to high multipliers, FF also has high base attack, self speed boost, self 2 turn energy regen, def shred, and weakness implant (ie res shred). All of which are multipliers for a crit build. With high BE for added effect. You're right that she doesn't have dmg% or crit buffs in the kit. She just has everything else. (0)

To me people insisting on going Critfly over hitting BE breakpoint is the equivalent of if Dhil mains insisted on going Break build just because his 3BA has the highest non-ult toughness damage in the game. "You can keep breaking with dhil bro trust, join the darkside" (39)

300% break DHIL to stall the enemies in G&G for my superbreak damage My goals are beyond your understanding (7)

Angriness: 😡😡🔘🔘🔘

im just curious if sam does damage mainly by break then why does he have such high multipliers on attacks? wouldnt boothill be better since he's just all out breaking? (4)

Angriness: 😡😡🔘🔘🔘

If only it were that simple…. 1) to meet the conditions to access the def shred you need at least 250 Break effect, which is already subtracting from the crit rolls available to you, you're already on the back foot2) def shred and vulnerability multiply your final dmg meaning they scale better the more dmg% and crit you build. If the initial damage in the formula is low af, higher multipliers won't mean anything. I'll paint you a picture 51 is lesser 33. There needs to be a balance between multiplier and dmg%/crit. Or your def shred and vulnerability are just going to be working with peanuts3)2 turn energy Ult to enter enhanced state right, if you build her for crit you just turned her to Jingliu who gets her Enhanced state in 2 turns as well.But your fire Jingliu has no crit rate buff nor self atk buff making it a watered down version with less actions per enhanced state.

Hi! Argentinian historian here! Let me answer your question!

To understand the "lack" of african-descent in Argentina, you first need to understand colonial history and only then argentinian history.

Colonial empires had two types of slavery: work slaves for the plantations of tobacco/cotton/sugar/coffee and household slaves. Work slaves made the vast majority of slaves in the Américas, hence the ammount of slaves in the southern states of the U.S., the northern part of South América and Brazil. Slaves were the main muscle behind the huge economies of the colonial empires. If you check ethnic maps of the Américas (i'm pretty sure in the U.S. they would be called "race maps", but we don't do that in South América), you'll find a correlation of the places colonial plantations were and the main groups of african descent. Once we understand this, the rest is pretty simple to get.

In colonial times, the spanish Southern Cone was an unimportant region of the Spanish Empire. This region was the southern frontrier of Spain's dominion, and the resources destined to the develop of this area were minimum. Economically speaking, this region depended from the centers of power in the Viceroyalty of Perú, and was inserted within the colonial economic structure as a subsidiary region for the silver production in Potosí. The main product of the Pampas was dry meat and pack animals. There were no plantations in this regions, hence there was no need for "work slaves". In fact, and as a historical curiosity, Buenos Aires and Montevideo lived mainly of contraband. In 1776, the Spanish Empire, after the new royal house of Borbón rose to power, went through a huge reform and this region became the Viceroyalty of the Río de La Plata (except Chile, that was a captaincy). The capital city of this new viceroyalty was set Buenos Aires, by all means the largest of the cities of the Southern Cone. By the time of the Revolución de Mayo (1810), Buenos Aires had 40k inhabitants, 1/3 of them being household slaves (there's a common missconception in the Internet that Argentina as a whole had 1/3 of african population, but, no, this number reffers to Buenos Aires). Since Buenos Aires was the biggest city, you can imagine how loosely populated this region was.

The newly formed Patriotic Government passed a Law in 1813 that stablished that every son of slaves would be free. Although Argentina was a Spanish colony, and Spain had a Caste System, here there was no segregation. Finally, by 1853, with the sanction of the Argentinian Constitution, slavery was formally abolished, although by this time there were almost no slaves still alive. People intermarried and mixed. This made the small population of african-descent to slowly integrate within the argentinian gene pool. By the end of the XIX century, massive waves of european migration began to arrive to this land, and once again people intermarried and mixed. We're talking about several millions of people, mainly from southern Europe, that arrived to a country with 3 million inhabitants. However, although you cannot "see" black argentines, there is a layer of african culture within the argentinian culture. There are "african festivals" in the province of Corrientes, and you can see african influence in certain types of traditional music.

TLDR: Argentina was a poor part of the Spanish Empire and it didn't have plantations. Since it didn't have plantations, there was no "need" for "work slaves", hence the small ammount of african descent you see nowadays.

TLDR, they got bleached.

So, genocide. Thx. https://tiktok.com/t/ZT8BK4jmN/

But that kind of genocide is a myth!

relegated to being considered the same thing as soyjak.party

I guess she's not an expert in video editing cuz she posted the whole story in like 10 clips, which I'm not going to post.

Here's her page if you want to check them out https://tiktok.com/@hustlanani.

Here's the first video.

Student who raised $400K for D.C. homeless man refunds money to donors

In a series of TikTok videos, Sanai Graden says she lost touch with Alonzo Douglas Hebron, who became evasive and stopped returning her calls.

A college student who raised nearly half a million dollars for a D.C. homeless man says the money has now been refunded, a sharp reversal in a saga that drew widespread attention online.

In a series of TikTok videos posted last week, Sanai Graden explained she had lost contact with Alonzo Douglas Hebron, the man she met in late January on the streets of downtown D.C. After she posted a video of her getting his medication and paying for his hotel room, the 21-year-old college student and Hebron were catapulted into viral fame. Graden raised more than $400,000 on GoFundMe for Hebron, and several local outlets covered their story.

Below is the original story from February

Homeless man in viral TikTok, who received charitable $400K, is perpetrator of brutal assault, victim claims

A fundraising campaign for Washington, DC homeless man Alonzo Douglas Hebron raised over $400K

A homeless man in a TikTok video that went viral, which also prompted a fundraising campaign to help raise over $400,000, has a lengthy criminal history including violent assault, according to a report.

Alonzo Douglas Hebron, the man in the viral video, has been in and out of prison for years, and a woman who claims to be a victim of one of his brutal attacks spoke exclusively with FOX 5 Washington, D.C., about his recent rise to social media fame.

"I'm speechless," said the woman, who wished to remain anonymous for safety reasons.

In the TikTok video, which was posted Feb. 1, a college student buys Hebron a drink and goes around town assisting him. It amassed tens of millions of views.

The student who recorded the TikTok video, Sanai Graden, told WUSA9 that she saw the man "in pain" and decided to help him. She then created a fundraising account so that others could help him too.

"I just didn't want to leave him with just tea. I wanted to leave him with more so like I tried to help him as much as I could. So that's why you saw me running around all over D.C.," Graden said. "He was in pain, it was really hard to watch and I'm like no I want to post this."

The victim who spoke with FOX 5 said that she was "heartbroken" after seeing the viral video, adding, "First of all — kudos to the woman who did this. She meant well, and I do applaud her for that. I know it was a lot of work for her to do so, but [she is] portraying him as something he just simply isn't."

According to FOX 5, the woman was the victim of an assault in June 2020, as she was sleeping outside Foundry United Methodist Church on P Street in Northwest Washington, D.C. The incident was caught on camera.

Security video of the incident shows Hebron placing a scarf on the victim, who is sleeping, when he begins repeatedly punching her.

"I do not understand how a human being can act like this. He's a sociopath. He does not have a sense of remorse," the victim told the outlet.

"I've been struggling since then," she continued, noting she was in recovery from alcoholism. "Last week was my 18-month anniversary and the last two days, I came close, but I didn't because he's not worth it."

According to the Department of Justice, Hebron has a criminal history that included an assault in 2012, when he was sentenced to five years in prison.

During that incident, Hebron was convicted of stabbing a man in the neck with a screwdriver in Washington, D.C., FOX 5 reported.

He also escaped a halfway house in June 2023.

In the fundraiser, Graden said she did not know the man's criminal history but that he shared his medical troubles.

"After walking and talking, he decided to open up about his current situation. I've learned that he's homeless, has no family and currently has prostate cancer. I then offered him food, and he didn't want to accept. I informed him that if he needed anything to let me know," she wrote.

The victim who spoke with FOX 5 said she is sharing her story so that people know to avoid him and for those who have seen the TikTok video to have more information about his history.

"Why is he on the street? How many people does he have to hurt before he is locked up for good," she told the outlet. "He will not stop. I don't know what they're waiting for."

The fundraiser, created seven days ago, remains open to donations.

How could this happen?

Less seethe in the actual Argentinian sub: https://old.reddit.com/r/argentina/comments/1cn7hbz/milei_is_already_proving_the_leftwing_economic/?sort=controversial

!chuds foid shocked at seeing mayos in argentina

Argentina has historically been a country of failed governments, economic collapses, and debt defaults. Yet incredibly there are signs that – against all the odds – the bold, free market reforms of its libertarian President Javier Milei are beginning to work.

With inflation falling, interest rates coming down, and the Peso on fire in one market, Milei is already proving the global Left-wing economic establishment – addicted to bigger government and endless deficits – wrong. Indeed, it may provide a template for other countries to escape from zero growth.

First, what's changed in the country: inflation has fallen to 11pc and Milei predicts it will fall further. While a monthly figure (this is Argentina after all), price rises may be coming back under control after soaring above 300pc annually.

Argentina's economic growth has been volatile

Real GDP annual change

Last week, Milei announced that the country had recorded its first quarterly budget surplus since 2008, a modest 0.2pc of GDP, but still an astonishing achievement in such a short space of time, especially for a country that has run deficits for 113 of the last 123 years.

Then, earlier this week, the central bank, which Milei has not yet gotten around to abolishing as he pledged, cut interest rates for the third time in three weeks. While they are still at an eye-watering 50pc, that will start to feed through into the economy very soon. Investors have started to notice.

According to Bloomberg data, in the blue-chip swap market the Peso was the best-performing currency in the world in the first quarter of this year, and the bond markets are rallying as well.

It may also get better over the months ahead. With stabilising prices, and a rising currency, investment should start flowing again into a country rich in natural resources and hyper-competitive on wages costs.

If Milei can make good on his promise to unlock the country's vast reserves of shale oil and gas – using technologies that have proved safe and successful in the US – then the economy could even start to boom.

If so, Argentina would be defying a global economic establishment addicted to bigger government, more regulation, and rising deficits.

We keep being lectured, not least by the shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves, and by President Biden and his acolytes in the United States, on the need for an active state, an industrial strategy, and more borrowing to pay for investment, and that regulation is the key to industrial and economic leadership, not its enemy.

The IMF, meanwhile, was too often a huge cheerleader for the failed Argentinian administrations of the past, extending the biggest loans in its history to the country.

On Milei's election, he was dismissed as a madman who would be removed from office within a matter of months, if not weeks. In proving that narrative wrong, he would show that even after the short-lived catastrophe of the Liz Truss government, free market reforms are far from impossible.

So how is he en route to deliver such a massive shock to the stale economic orthodoxy? Fundamentally, he got three big calls right.

First, even without a majority in parliament, he has been ruthless. Whole government departments have been closed down overnight, regardless of the immediate consequences. The Ministry of Culture was axed, so was the anti-discrimination agency, and the state-owned news service. Only last month, he unveiled plans to fire another 70,000 state employees.

Milei hasn't attempted to cut gradually, to control budgets, or to ease people out with early retirement, or hiring freezes. Instead, he has, as promised, taken a ‘chainsaw' to the machinery of the state, yielding huge savings in the process.

Next, he has been bold. The president massively devalued the peso on day one, taking the financial hit upfront, and then tore up rent controls, price restrictions and state subsidies. He pared back workers' rights, reducing maternity leave and severance compensation, and allowed companies to fire workers who went on strike.

He ripped away fuel subsidies, even though it meant a temporary spike in inflation. Sure, there has been some short-term pain, but the results are now becoming evident.

Rents, for example, are falling by 20pc a year as landlords, freed from controls, put more supply on the market, instead of withdrawing it as they do in countries where the price is set by the government.

Finally, Milei has never stopped making the argument. He promotes freedom, liberalisation and a smaller state with a messianic zeal.

Many of the measures he has taken might be rough, but the president has never attempted to dismiss that, instead explaining patiently and persistently why the reforms are justified, and how they will create greater prosperity for everyone in the long run.

Much of the developed world, and the UK in particular, are gradually slipping into Argentinian-style stagnation before Milei came along.

Governments are hooked on subsidies and price controls, trying to buy their way out of every challenge with higher spending. Deficits are allowed to rise relentlessly, with no meaningful plan for ever bringing them down again. A corrupt, crony capitalism is allowed to flourish, killing competition.

But the Argentine leader is providing a blueprint for how to break free. The global economic elite keeps lecturing us on why we need more government and a more powerful state despite the painful lack of results. Argentina is challenging it in dramatic fashion.

It is just possible that it is starting to work.

Another day, another MTG and Warhammer controversy. Today's episode actually begins with some YouTuber on a one man crusade to destroy Kotaku. Some jurnalist took issue with this and the YouTuber started making fun of her. In a reasonable escalation of the situation, the jurno tracks down the Tuber's wife and starts DMing her. They go back and forth slinging shit at each other and of course the j*urnaloid can't help but claim harassment. This is where the story proper begins:

Paul Scott Canavan, a MtG and Warhammer artist tweets the following:

This is absolutely the play - we should be doing this with all these weird creeps. Track down their significant others and mothers and string them up.

Surely, this was posted in good faith. Unfortunately, bigot chuds took issues with his tweet and Paul doubled down until bravely private his Twitter and Instagram.

The following threads have some good redditard discussion on it. /r/freemagic will likely go on a campaign to get him fired, and even /r/mtg seems to largely denounce his behavior.

Some choice comments:

Guess this guy has never heard of a slippery slope.

What a loser.

He meant proverbially. Like held accountable.

His wording was flagrant. But I do t think he actually meant to hang people.

It's hyperbole I believe.

It's another episode of the words we say don't mean what they mean!

I am not one for cruxifying people for their opinions, but holy shit threatening peoples family because they don't agree with this jerk offs opinion and ideology is a new fricking low.

That's not what happened here, though. If you look at the context, what he was saying is that if someone is harassing women online their actions should be shown to the women in their life.

He's not saying kill the families of online trolls, the title of this post is really misleading.

"Track down their significant others and mothers and string them up.”

That is verbatim what his tweet said. How is the title misleading?

Several other redditards crawl out of the woodwork to explain how Paul is defending women, so his calls for killing are good, actually.

I believe unfortunately he has a history of sketchy behaviour. He is the one who posted sales of his artist proof cards and then ghosted people and scammed them out of some money.

Hmm, maybe this guy is based after all…

I think you are perpetuating a bad faith interpretation of a poorly worded tweet.

“Bad Faith! Bad Faith! Bad Faith!” say the line, redditor!

Anyways, place your bets on whether or not this brave woman defender will keep his role as a Magic and Warhammer artist. Personally, I hope he gets fired because he already seems like a schizo. Losing his job would likely make him even more deranged.

Will there be a satanist militant group in the future to fight for what's right? Does JOS have any plans for this?

No Mr Smith, we do not.

We stay within the laws and civility rules and you are clearly agitated about this fact. We are peaceful people here. We know you want warmorgering, zealots and more wars, it's in your nature after all.

Go report this to your wing now and to receive your paycheck for trying to incite innocents to get violent, armed revolutions, hatred and bloodshed. Be proud that you once again try to incite psyops, military revolutions, paramilitary bloodshed, and insanity.

Thanks for recommending criminality in our midst indirectly and bloodshed and attempting this all day long, or seeking to bring people out to die so you justify your paycheck.

We aren't going to follow you in your much desired recommendations, however.

Once we establish Satanic governments in Europe, North America, and the whole world, we will likely have security services like the SS in National Socialist Germany to ensure order and the advancement of Satanism. But for now, we choose peace in the physical realm and only do warfare on the Internet and on the Astral with our RTR's.

Honestly, there are hundreds more posts like these on that forum that could be posted here. The whole place is a treasure trove of drama.

EDIT: The guy might have genuinely been neurodivergent or something, He's now apologizing:

im sorry i didnt mean to offend anyone

i feel so shitty right now i am so sorry

It's okay then, we understand. The militant warfare of Abrahamic religions does not exist in that one. You do not pick up guns to prove any loyalty here, anyone who would do this is an enemy and seeks to cause wrong action for their own mental turmoil.

Any hate or disgust or anger against the enemy, cannot be cured via doing more of what they are doing. That will cause a vicious cycle of wrong activities that lead nobody nowhere, except of prison cells. The Rituals we have work and they manifest directly from the Astral.

Cure your heart and mind from meditation, become a good citizen, stay alive and developing. The Astral Rituals will manifest what they will, they do their work.

You do not prove your loyalty by seeking weapons or destruction, but by being a creative human being that restores your own soul into a better state than the state the enemy put humanity in. That's the ultimate victory and revolution.

As more people wake up, the Truth will render the enemy obsolete and powerless.

Read all our sites please. Good luck in your journey.

Here's Albini recounting buying child pornography while in Hamburg:

Jaded as I am, I can't help but flip seeing a girl and guy of twelve or thirteen, tops, ramming Martel bottles up each other's asses. These are not the Dutch equivalent of abused trailer-park kids, either. They look to be in excellent health and seem to be honestly enjoying this. Makes all the conventional arguments against this kind of thing seem really silly.

They're kids. Kids like to play with their own and other people's privates. They're just being photographed at it. Now, people who get a voyeuristic charge out of watching them, like me, I guess, well, we've got some grip-on-reality problems. There's maybe 1% of all pornography that has any effect on me, and it's definitely not a turn-on very often. But when it is, and it's as weird as this, it's pretty hard to take.

And here's him promoting his friend, Peter Sotos', chld pronography magazine:

The cover of PURE 2 is a guy holding open a toddler's puny hole so his spuzz can dribble out. The girl is past crying. She is destroyed. [...] Like I said, I like that sort of thing

Sotos later defended his use of child pornography in cout, stating "child abuse is a sublime pleasure"

https://www.chicagotribune.com/1985/12/06/100000-bond-in-child-pornography-case/

Albini also produced an album for Sotos called Buyer's Market, which Wikipedia describes as "sound collages of spoken word samples from parents, law-enforcement officers and victims of s*x crimes and pedophilia". When asked about his relationship with Sotos in a reddit AMA, this is what he had to say:

Peter's an old friend. I've known him for 30 years or so. I'll help him do whatever he wants to do, from wash his car to edit his album.

!animalposters cutest sheep ever, not mine! Mister Man and I had a lovely time at a local May Fair. I had three lemonades and lots of yummy treats, plus I bought gifts for my mom and grandmother we bought new sunglasses and a small lucky cat.
