It’s almost like we’re suppose to build and guard our communities and interest against tho… sorry I meant do nothing and complain.
Comment on Reddit is finally entirely dead to me

It’s a loss, but I’ve come to see it as just a part of the endless treadmill of 1. Go to where the cool people are 2. Uncool people show up 3. It gets bad 4. Look for the cool people. Feels like that’s always going to be the way of it.

Support your local federated instance, hold mods and admins to task, get to know people in your community, report trolls and push to defederate instances run poorly or in bad faith. If that ends up not being enough, fuck I dunno.

Always has been.

I’m always happy when people bring that up, it happens too rarely. I was exposed to Discordianism as a kid, which is kind of the Idiot’s Guide version of culture jamming. I didn’t come across Guy Debord until later, when I’d already made up my mind that everything about mainstream society needed to be subverted. Sadly, it seems I’m not very good at it.

Don’t worry, Debord didn’t think he was either! He actually thought that his Situationist writing would be forgotten and that he would be remembered for his (ironically now forgotten) board game Kriegspiel. Instead Society of the Spectacle is now considered important French culture and history.

That is oddly uplifting, as a failed game designer as well.
