<2023-01-07T06:27:03.000Z> Varus: hi
<2023-01-07T20:07:32.000Z> alexan: Hey, what's up
<2023-01-08T00:55:52.000Z> Varus: youre a curious figure that followed me
<2023-01-08T00:55:55.000Z> Varus: wanted to get to  know you 
<2023-01-08T01:38:53.000Z> alexan: Oh, well I just browse the local timeline and reply/react to whatever interests me.k to say lol, just was looking to get an account on mastodon, but most of the people seemed like lib freaks. I then saw an acct that said they moved to po
<2023-01-08T01:40:43.000Z> Varus: yes mastodon might be gayer than twitter
<2023-01-08T01:40:47.000Z> Varus: are you a biological female
<2023-01-08T01:42:37.000Z> alexan: That message got sent accidentally which is why it looks so weird, but it's understandable enough.
<2023-01-08T01:43:13.000Z> alexan: Nope, just like using female avatars sometimes because I'd rather look at a woman.
<2023-01-08T01:43:32.000Z> Varus: oh it was not meant to be send to me
<2023-01-08T01:46:27.000Z> alexan: It was fine to send, I just thought you could do line breaks, but doing that just sends the message.
<2023-01-08T01:47:13.000Z> Varus: how do you like poast compared to other social media
<2023-01-08T01:47:20.000Z> Varus: i guess we can say whatever we want here but there is also lots of idiots
<2023-01-08T01:58:29.000Z> alexan: I'm a big fan of poast. Wish I discovered it a lot earlier. But at least it's still pretty new, only almost 2 years old I think. Love the free speech aspect but yeah does bring in a lot of idiots. But there's always muting and blocking I guess.
<2023-01-08T02:14:04.000Z> alexan: I've had like 3 or 4 twitter accts, but none of them lasted long. I use one, delete it. Then make a new one after a while, repeat. Twtr is a bit more appealing now, but Elon kinda sucks, for many reasons. And it seems there's still accts getting suspended for not good reason.
<2023-01-08T02:14:33.000Z> Varus: what are your thoughts on gab vs poast and twitter
<2023-01-08T03:15:52.000Z> alexan: I've checked out gab a few times. I don't like how it seems dominated by conservatives. Most of them are annoying. Bunch of gen x'ers and boomers. So I'd say I like it even less than twitter.
<2023-01-08T04:23:14.000Z> Varus: hmm one thing about gab is that it has less degeneracy tho
<2023-01-08T04:23:32.000Z> Varus: problem with fedi is way too much gross content from so many servers and also bad actors and retards there are drawbacks to a decentralized service
<2023-01-08T04:53:21.000Z> alexan: True, seems there's barely any degeneracy. The trump and desantis fans just bug me a bit..mainly because I was in their spot for a time, voted enthusiastically for Trump in 2016 but quickly realized when he was choosing his cabinet that he's just like all the others. Wish they could see it too, it disappoints me. But at least there's still some hope for them unlike leftoids.
<2023-01-08T04:53:58.000Z> alexan: And yes about fediverse, I stick to local feed for that reason
<2023-01-08T06:03:08.000Z> Varus: all the degeneracy can ruin the legitimacy of whatever points we make which cannot be used on gab
<2023-01-08T06:03:19.000Z> Varus: poast and gaf are already under attack by vicious people
<2023-01-08T06:03:40.000Z> Varus: yes is true it has a lot of boomers but there is also some based accounts i've seen. plus you can red pill the boomers they are still important people
<2023-01-08T07:44:32.000Z> alexan: Yeah I agree. all good points.
<2023-03-29T05:55:33.000Z> Varus: hey i see you comment a lot on what i post where you from
<2023-03-30T21:11:35.000Z> alexan: US. Eastern time zone
<2023-03-30T21:20:39.000Z> alexan: What you share is pretty worthwhile and valuable, especially compared to most of the people on this site
<2023-03-30T22:58:33.000Z> Varus: I thought you were eastern European
<2023-03-30T22:59:09.000Z> Varus: Thanks for the compliment that's one of the best ones so far. Sometimes I don't feel like I'm doing anything valuable since not many interact or have high follower count
<2023-03-30T22:59:46.000Z> Varus: I always try to share informative but everyone on this site and dissident west like NJP guys are really adament about maintaining support for certain things
<2023-03-31T00:33:36.000Z> alexan: Oh interesting, I am white ofc, and I mostly have northern and central/western european heritage (Irish and Italian form the biggest parts of me tho). Furthest eastern heritage for me is Lithuanian.
<2023-03-31T00:34:22.000Z> alexan: And yeah I get discouraged by the lack of engagement on my profile too. But it seems there's just a lot of lurkers that never interact.
<2023-03-31T00:37:56.000Z> alexan: One thing that would be nice is if impressions/views were shown, that would give a better idea what kind of reach a person is having, but I'm not sure if fedi software is capable of that
<2023-03-31T01:09:06.000Z> alexan: And yes a lot of Poast loves NJP. I'd love if NJP had promise, but I unfortunately don't have faith in them. It feels like a grift to me. I looked at their party platform, and it's good, but doesn't scream "great" to me. And having a potential jew be the chairman (Mike "Peinovich") isn't a good look. And also there was that whole scandal a few months ago, but I didn't look into it much. I appreciate their advocacy for victims of crime, but how far can that really go
<2023-03-31T04:10:57.000Z> Varus: i think telegram has that but its also a centralized service. I think its kind of its own echo chamber just like leftist social media you need to score certain hit points like being pro china/russia
<2023-03-31T04:13:27.000Z> Varus: for me the biggest red flags for the NJP were serveral things: their persistant pro china and pro russia stance. But most recently was calling anti-vax people conspiracy retards and ofc something i never knew about before was Mike admitting he was a jew on a podcast. I'm in a pro njp group on xmpp and they've kicked me from the group several times for bringing it up and they always defending by saying that it was out of context. I don't buy it because the recording is very obvious about what he stated. He said in the recording that he thinks half jews who have proven themselves should be given an exception. Too many red flags for me and the dissident west is filled with people like this 
<2023-05-05T05:11:13.000Z> Varus: saying something against putin or russia gets you some of the dumbest people to respond
<2023-05-05T20:28:17.000Z> alexan: Yeah haha. Some people on this site are something else. If they want to be in their delusions, then all power to them. Trying to convince some of them seems to go nowhere.
<2023-05-05T23:44:33.000Z> Varus: Yeah did you check the thread I posted in
<2023-05-05T23:44:39.000Z> Varus: All I got was cope and ad hominem
<2023-05-05T23:58:08.000Z> alexan: Just went through it
<2023-05-05T23:58:46.000Z> alexan: The mindset of "enemy of my enemy is my friend" for this in particular is so stupid
<2023-05-06T00:00:27.000Z> alexan: Russia will never even be able to hurt the west enough to the point to where it's truly hurting. Finance capital is too strong, and if they want an actual war, then that's WW3 and there will probably be nukes
<2023-05-06T00:01:54.000Z> alexan: And if they did hurt them enough, then they would guaranteed annex baltic states first and possibly others after, subjecting them to antifa tyranny once again
<2023-05-06T00:02:43.000Z> alexan: But i know im preaching to the choir, you're already aware of all this

<2023-05-06T01:20:56.000Z> Varus: The level of hypocrisy lol
<2023-05-06T01:21:32.000Z> Varus: Yeah the only way to physically hurt west is to nuke it
<2023-05-06T02:50:30.000Z> alexan: They forget that these white russians have been beat over the head with anti-white/communist propaganda for over 100 years. They have been trained to hate fascism and fascists. I don't have faith in the majority of them. Certainly some are free-thinking enough to not be a part of it. But they don't have the power.
<2023-05-06T02:51:25.000Z> alexan: And yeah if Russia ever nuked the west, that's it, they'd be done too in an instant. So there's no point in them idealizing Russia beating the west
<2023-05-06T02:52:53.000Z> alexan: The US would obliterate Moscow and probably some other cities in that scenario
<2023-05-06T02:54:14.000Z> alexan: And I think Putin/the kremlin is well-aware of that. That's why the fear-mongering over WW3 is a bit too much imo
<2023-05-06T03:57:12.000Z> Varus: yeah which makes you really wonder why they support russia that much. it just sounds like resenment against their own goverment so they are going to do whatever
<2023-05-06T04:13:33.000Z> alexan: Yeah it's self-destructive I think. Only hurting themselves, because they want their country, whichever western country it is, to be defeated. And the sad thing is that they are falling for Russian/soviet tactics. Russia wants division/civil wars in the west. They support both BLM and wignat far right groups.
<2023-05-06T04:14:50.000Z> alexan: Trump, Nigel Farage/UKIP/Brexit, Marine le Pen and others all have ties to the Kremlin
<2023-05-06T04:16:25.000Z> alexan: And ofc there's the small parties like Matt Heimbach's former Traditionalist Workers Party, and now his bs Patriotic Socialist Front
<2023-05-06T04:16:45.000Z> Varus: its more that they know the west is in big trouble so they have no way of being able to come up with a solution so they think shilling for a goverment that is seemingly anti-american is the best thing they can do. i've seen some say that the US goverment is so evil it deserves to be nuked
<2023-05-06T04:20:26.000Z> alexan: On paper, that strategy appears to be sensible. But once you take into account the numerous bad things like Russia has done, it should make people realize that there's no reason to even tacitly support (in the sense of supporting only because one wants the west to lose)
<2023-05-06T04:21:02.000Z> Varus: besides its all a deception russia was essential in the alliance to defeat germany. making it once more another idiotic reason for so called dissidents to support them
<2023-05-06T04:23:48.000Z> alexan: They think just because it's not the USSR anymore, that the essence of Russia has changed, but it hasn't. Institutions are different, but the spirit didn't leave
<2023-05-06T04:24:52.000Z> Varus: its qnanon leve retardation that Putin is some secret based nationalist 
<2023-05-06T04:29:19.000Z> alexan: How Tesak and others were treated should be reason enough for any nationalist to denounce Russia
<2023-05-06T04:30:03.000Z> alexan: And many who faced prosecution/persecution fled to...Ukraine of course. Because Ukraine doesn't care about nationalism
<2023-05-06T04:36:26.000Z> Varus: ukraine seems to have a lot of nationalists. svaboda had actualy ethnic nationalists in parliament
<2023-05-06T04:39:22.000Z> alexan: Right yeah that's what I mean. They let you be or even let you have high positions in military/govt. And I strongly believe Zelensky is always feeling pressure from them. If it wasn't for them, I believe he would've actively sought a negotiation with Russia. So I think it is accurate in a certain sense to say nationalists run the govt.
<2023-05-06T04:41:15.000Z> Varus: Yeah but these idiots think because there is a kike in the government that Ukraine deserve to be nuked. Which If you follow that line of thinking the entire western world would have to be nuked. Its insanely anti white
