Hello to all the new guys, gals, and enby pals. So glad you are here.

Just a heads up, this site is pretty leftist which means that it can and does sometimes get targeted by right-wing assholes and more. There is a nonzero chance that it will be (or even has been) targeted by the state.

Therefore, if you have your profile picture set to a real picture of yourself I would highly recommend that you don’t. Of course, if you feel safe or whatever and want to strut your stuff then by all means. And additionally realize that just because you have a silly avatar or historical figure (mine is Lenin’s mugshot) you can probably still be identified if someone really had full access to the backend and shit, because OPSec is hard and a million things expose you.

But I figure at least make a bad actor work for it.

Anyways, don’t let me scare you I just wanted you to be informed and safe.

And once again, welcome!
