Oh that. I didn’t think it was like that. I mean I usually just use my characters to express my irl disapproval of the figures he talks about. I didn’t think he was doing Neonazi stuff. I’m going to stop doing posting there.

I've done election threads with this nation but only national elections and they're more 'news and update threads about the election where other nations can IC post their thoughts on the candidates, parties, etc' rather than letting other nations decide for me.

I am late to it, but what is it with sites just making some asinine changes?

This was a while back but for example, Imgur. It used to have a simple image editor, which is essentially a crop, trim, resizer. Now I can't do it properly and there's this watermark on the edited photos.

Calling it an image editor is being generous; it's nothing but a meme generator, something I don't need 9 out of 10 times when I just want to edit.

Now of course, I could use Photoshop, Paint.Net, even Paint, and an assortment of other stuff, so it's not a huge loss. Still, would be nice if I don't need to fire up another app just so that I can shrink it down to < 1800 px.

But above all, if there are a number of sites allowed to upload images to NS, why do some continue to use the only one that is not allowed?

I mean functionally speaking, I don't think it really matters if they were being 100% sincere or not.

I'll admit I didn't see any of The Trump Cult's posts beyond the one in this thread of him complaining about F7 being 'another woke echo chamber of liberals', but think about it like this: say someone joins NationStates, they go onto the forums, and the first thing they do is go to the trans thread in NSG and reply with something like 'So how many kiddos have you groomed today, ya disgusting pedos? You'll never be real women btw.'

What actual difference does it make if the person genuinely believes that trans people are pedophiles who groom minors or if they don't believe it, but they post it to try and offend and trigger some people? Either way, they're still posting some transphobic garbage and will be punished accordingly.

Have to say it's also really weak trolling, all in all. Sure, it gets the job done, but lacks any creative finesse or higher facilities of thought.
Just a string of random buzzwords with no creative craft behind them.
It's just lame, the entire Twatter Game is lame. It's just a giant conflageration of people looking to get mad together and then talk with their own tribe about how bad the other tribe is to get collectively mad at each other.

To quote the old phrase:"If you are being stupid in order to troll, you are still being stupid."
After all, you can be smart with your troll game, a skill sadly few have.

I’ve made a lot of nations, as you know, many of which have nothing in common with each ideologically (exact opposites in some cases), I can’t remember a time there wasn’t a discrepancy between one of those nation’s ideals and WA law.
