Freenode IRC operators now engaging in routine abuses of power

https://www.devever.net/~hl/freenode_abuse

There have been several allegations of this since the handover of the Freenode infrastructure to its new custodians, but I can now provide a first-hand account of one incident — because I am the victim of it.

A channel which I registered, ##hntop, has been taken over by Andrew Lee (rasengan) without my knowledge or consent.

...

Conclusions. In other words, it appears that a Freenode services admin, presumably rasengan,

  • forcibly dropped the channel and reregistered it so as to put themselves in control of it, and render me no longer in control of it;
  • clearly did this with the express purpose of frustrating an attempt by that channel's founder (me) to relocate it to another IRC network; and
  • cover up the fact that I had sought to do so.

    If you don't like the girl dick, then support single payer healthcare.

    You won't. Feminists crying about breast cancer won't.

    If we had single payer healthcare, girl dicks would vanish, breast cancer would be detected early, outcomes would improve across the board, and feminists would no longer be able to operate their lucrative pinkwashing money laundering schemes.

    Oh wait, Obamacare shut down the pink cancer charities. I know because they retaliated against me personally for being a footsoldier of a conspiracy involving 3.5 billion men, but spoilers: that conspiracy doesn't have many men at all and is in real reality operated by cis-gendered womyn-born-womyn. Only a womyn-born-womyn could be so fuck petty as to lash out against a cancer charity. This dick girl couldn't help but to be sympathetic, but that's not good enough when womyn-born-womyn want to fuck each other over and blame it all on the nearest tranny.

    So, thanks once again to right-wing feminism, we must all put up with the girl dick, because we will never, ever have single payer healthcare.

    But what the fuck do I care? Our ridiculous healthcare system is making me rich at the moment. Karma I guess. Feminism can go fuck itself.
