“ The white supremacist …”

He was a left-wing eco-fascist according to his own writing. Where’s the Ministry of Truth police when you really need them?

This is where the Ministry of Truth got to. A whole new area for the MochaVeep to display her incompetence.

Yep. One of the first steps to getting someone canceled or banned simply because you don’t like what they’re saying is to say they’re a troll. I’ve seen that used a lot. And I’ve also seen people, when they’ve run out of arguments, simply calling opponent of troll.

And it really has become a sort of dog whistle of the left. A post calling someone a troll is basically a call for them to be banned from the site since they’re “just trolling everyone”.

The argument is that if you are disagreeing with the majority it means you are a troll, and therefore you should be banned.
