I want to be clear that I don’t think you should be nice, polite or respectful toward people who are being disrespectful, abusive and threatening to you.
I just think that death threats and suibaiting poison the environment more than they actually affect your enemy.
There are just better and more productive ways to silence or even be rude to people who abuse you online than threatening them.
normal fucking people: please for the love of all that’s good look at the tags before you read something
rancid fucking piss babies: now am i not only not doing that, but i’ll also send death threats to the creators and harass them off the platform they have a right to be on after purposefully seeking out content that will definitely harm me 🙂
Oh sure but then you kill them.
(context I am talking about war against ideological enemies who want to annihilate you and your people, not rude or mean people you don’t like or agree with. )
We fight bullies in meat-space because we cannot make them simply be silent and disappear.
Online we can make bullies be silent and disappear.
If you’re responding to ideological bullies online with simple death threats, rather than with ideological arguments that can benefit an audience by educating them, then you’re just hate masturbating.
What purpose does telling someone to die serve?
Nasty, mean little f/o who keeps threatening to kill you and gets flustered when you try to kiss them.
