how easy it is to troll on the fediverse
Tales from the Fediverse and the greater open source community #2:
IMAGINE... you were some middle eastern and your house gets blown up. You guys may not know this but middle eastern people blow each other up. There was this thing called 9/11 or something, if you need further help go ask your dad.
Now tell me, if your house was destroyed what would you do? Well to "some" this means going to beg on the fediverse.
The amount of antifa members who will sell their kidney just to give you 8 gorillion dollars is to high too count. This has caused alot of fake scammers to pretend to beg for money claiming that there house was nuked in order to get donations, and BOY do they get FUCKING PAPER from it. These alt-left fediverse members will believe ANYTHING. Lets look at one member who is "dying", has 5 children, heart failure, and mental health issues.

"I live in a shithole with no electricity but I still have my Iphone to take 4k HDR photos of my house with 5g gigabit internet"
Let us view the gofundme page...

Nigga... we can see the greenscreen/photoshop
You think that after getting over 5 THOUSAND DOLLARS these alt-left fediverse members would realize that MAYBE oh I don't know its a grift.

But no... they 100000% believe it. And with that I want to get into the "mutual aid side" of the Fediverse.
Chapter 2: WHAT is mutual aid
"Mutual aid is an organizational model where voluntary, collaborative exchanges of resources and services for common benefit take place amongst community members to overcome social, economic, and political barriers to meeting common needs. This can include physical resources like food, clothing, or medicine, as well as services like breakfast programs or education"
Translation: I need medical weed to survive.
You may think "Thats a obvious exaggeration person writing this on the internet......"
Its not...
210$ for medical weed... You know that "Legalize medical cocaine" thing from GTA V that was obvious satire. Congrats... GTA V is considered tame by the absurdity of modern social activists.

"Please bro just 10$ more dollars for medical weed I suffer from PTSD"

(There are 100s of posts from this SAME PERSON BEGGING FOR WEED SPENDING UPWARDS OF 400$ ON IT)
Of course there are also scammers as well. YES they will give you free money for ANYTHING.

How dumb are we talking??

Those Nigerian prince scam emails never truly died off did they? Instead they just migrated to dumb alt-left antifa open source social media communities.
But guys if I may have your attention for a moment. This poor man right here is going to die without his essentials that are needed for him to live... That's right.. His phone bill..
Chapter 3: What type of people are falling for this
Well my dead bombed child I think the images speak for themselves.

Whether you like or hate trump is not the point. I think alot of people reasonably hate him and that is justified.
But the people who are on the fediverse are in a eternal HATE chamber.
And that hate drives to them to extreme elitism, blind faith, and extreme tolerance that makes them do things like this. Maybe out of spite for conseratives or just out of extreme emotion .
There are genuine people who come here to the fediverse asking for money however and I don't want you to think EVERYONE is a scammer.
Most of the fediverse is just complaining. With twitter at least you get to hear alot of different sides by scrolling down far enough but hear, its just one sided hate, meaning that nothing insightful will ever get shared.
