    To be honest it probably did. There’s a whole army of broken heroes behind every social media site whose job it is to block and remove that kind of content. If you didn’t see anything, thank the admins.

    The problem with the kinds of people who are into that kind of stuff is that they want to shove it under your nose to make you uncomfortable.

      God bless the poor bastards, because they permanently sacrifice themselves to save the rest of us from the absolute fucking worst.

      That is one of the few professions I would like AI to reliably take away.

    Lol, you don’t understand the internet, good person, but you are the physical embodiment of its current base.

    Step 1: Call fraud on a legitimate claim from someone who was there at the time. Step 2: Boast about your long, prolific history on the Internet to establish your credentials. Step 3: Double back because you stayed an a strangely singular lane, and as @paul points out, still avoiding getting it.

    Keep on keeping on, I guess.
