Should I eat my protein shake or eat whatever my gf made for my post-workout snack?

I got gigajannied off of Reddit for “supporting terrorism” because I posted a picture of the ISIS flag in a post that was pointing out that the seal they used on that flag was part of a fake counterfeit made by random Europeans to scam the Ottomans… it’s beyond me how that can be interpreted as support when it just makes them look stupid. I just thought it was a fun fact that multiple jihadist groups like them and Al-Shabab that are supposed to care so much about their religion were similarly hoodwinked by a long-known hoax when they independently developed their nearly identical flags, even though they hate each other.

Very frustrating to get permanently locked out of what is now a sizable chunk of the internet. Can’t even browse the real deal Reddit anymore because they’re mandating use of the app on the phone now. : /

Other Fediverse Communities:


We in c/Neoliberal support:

  • Free trade and competitive markets
  • Immigration
  • YIMBYism – ‘yes in my backyard’-ism
  • Carbon taxes
  • Internationalism and supranational governance – e.g. the EU, UN, NATO, IMF
  • LGBTQ+ rights
  • Democracy, human rights, civil liberties and due process

Neoliberals can be found in many political parties and we are not dogmatic supporters of specific parties. But we tend to find ourselves agreeing more often with parties that espouse liberal values, internationalism and centrist economics, such as the Democrats in the US, Liberal Democrats in the UK, FDP in Germany, Renaissance/MoDem in France, the Liberal Party in Canada, and so on.
