Mmh, yes. I did find it funny that, for all the polemic there was on voat about resisting, overcoming, and ultimately, yes, destroying, the modern "progressive" (((globalist))) culture-and-society-ruining clownworld system, they choose their good person, bad person labels along builder/destroyer lines.
I'm sure they, on some level, intend a degree of nuance, probably along the lines of "destoying the enemy = good", "destroying the !enemy = bad", but in choosing the labels they did, they made exactly the same mistake as the "liberals" of bygone times, placing an abstract guiding principle as ultimate pragma.
Building = good. !Building = bad. Constructive crits only please. Kind words only please. Close ranks and leave the field in an orderly fashion. We'll get 'em next time. They've chosen to lose the fight by opting instead for building a hugbox and turtling within it.
So yeah, I guess I'm a destroyer, because I'd rather have people on my own side speak a little harshly with one another at times, be honest about what they see as each other's failings, and actually learn not to break down into a weeping puddle of piss because someone on the internet called them a mean word.
What's worse is it was the one admin who created the Builder/Destroyer narrative. And his sycophants were more than happy to play along and take it seriously and use this narrative as a weapon to further divide the community.
Congrats, Putt. You created the civil war you were so worried about.
