I might ask this strange profile anything, but my policy is to immediately block Neo-Nazis, Skin-heads, White-power types, and other racists. This was stated in the original post of this thread, read what has been posted, it helps. I have no intention of interacting with whatever this profile is. I only noticed it because I heavily filter Gab due to the extreme content of some posters.
Alright, I've reconsidered and you convinced me. Why don't you put together a few questions that I'll ask they/it, and I'll let they/it know that you wanted me to ask. Hey, I should let they/it know about DI and RN so they/it can share their/its lifestyle with all of us. Why keep all this to myself when we can all have some new friends! What a great idea!

How am I suppose to formulate questions when I have nothing to go on but your interpretation of some person's comments/pics on Gab?
Why didn't you just block this person in the first place, which you say is your policy?

So then, you have nothing to add on the topic?

Look, I did that very thing and here is where I thought I made that very clear in my previous posts . . .
The first and second paragraphs of my original post when I started this thread.
Quote:I found out very quickly that Gab was overrun with Neo-Nazi, white power racists, and I have been blocking everyone I see in my feed that fits that profile . . . I still have to block people every time I'm on Gab. Some aren't as blatant and have slipped under my radar, so I scrutinize the profiles of some borderline posters to filter them out.
Any image of Hitler, Nazi's in uniform, or the ever-popular swastika will get you blocked by me very quickly, but some comments require a look at the poster's profile.
And here's where I address you directly in post #23.
Quote:. . . I haven't blocked you like I do to the freak show on Gab . . .
I almost missed post #31.
Quote:. . . my policy is to immediately block Neo-Nazis, Skin-heads, White-power types, and other racists
So, get a grip, I never intended on any "bashing" like you claimed was going to happen here. I merely saw something I can't believe, just when I thought I've seen it all.

When I first read your posts it did come off as politically weaponized AI. I don't mean that in an insulting way, you are very knowledgeable and are consistent on your positions. The topic? Just when you think you've seen everything. Just my to cents.

Your original post remarks don't give me the poster's exact comments and pics, so I can't make my own assessment of the situation, or see where your interpretations may have gone wrong.
And I asked you a simple question "Why do you care so much?" if your policy is to immediately block people like them?
So how am I suppose to get a grip when you could have easily asked this person questions on Gab to get clarity and understanding for yourself?
Grip, grasping the situation requires making sense of what your intent is here. That's why I also asked you "Why didn't you block them if that is your policy?" and "Why don't you ask the person on Gab yourself?" Which you have not responded to.
I think this thread is in poor taste, but hey, you do you.

If anyone thinks I'm lying or exaggerating about this profile on Gab, I could grab a screen shot or two, cut-and-paste some of the comments, share some of those links, but why?
This profile can't be for real, and if it is, I don't what anything to do with it. But if it will prove I'm not a bullshitting, trouble-making, liar, I'll show you it.
If the majority of posters want to see it, I'll give in and share it. Hell, I'll settle for just two of you.

Just read what I posted, as I answer all this in great detail, even repeating myself. If you need direct quotes again, you're hopeless, I refuse to answer that over and over again.
I unblocked the profile, saved the address, and then logged out. If I go straight to the address, I can look at the profile's news feed and comments. Poking around requires a membership, but you can see what I was talking about by looking at the profile at this link https://gab.com/VI_XII

Why don't you just chat with the Gab person instead of going through all of this?
