I searched ARFCOM / AR15.com on Twitter after the GoDaddy hit.

I was expecting more hits than I ran into but there are a few triggered Karens out there that were horrified by the open and blatant FACISM that is on display here.

One Karen's Facism is another conservative's civil rights being silenced.

That’s the funny thing about fascism.

The people trying to silence their opponents by any means necessary never seem to realize they are in fact the fascists.

I’m sure good Germans worked into a froth about the evils of the Jews never realized they were actually the bad guys. Not until they were made to clean up the camps and dead bodies.

Good catch! From Wiktionary: "esoteric originally referred to the secret teachings of Greek philosophers, versus public or exoteric ones". This public site is the literal opposite of 'esoteric'.

I used to read the Atlantic all the time. That publication is no shit responsible for driving me sharply away from anything left-wing.

Esoteric means - intended for or likely to be understood by only a small number of people with a specialized knowledge or interest.

We're not bookface but we have at least 10s of thousands of members and readers.  And millions are owners of AR15s.

They are malevolently using an obscure word to insinuate we're some sort of cult.  (Like I just did to make them sound suspect. )

Turning the "marginalize" dial to 11...

A few people on the left have figured this out and starting warning others to chill out, but most haven't: because the left acting so quickly and disproportionately to censor, they will literally drive conservative discussion offline and underground into the dark web.

And then they will have no idea what's being discussed or how big it is, in spite of "fellow kids" spies, because they're not going to get spies into a 5 person encrypted discussion group of shooting buddies.

Intentionally blinding themselves due to being unaware of the consequences of their actions, go figure.

One of the most ridiculous things in that article is the notion that so-called extremists have been removed from Twitter and Facebook and are now using these alternative sites. That’s complete nonsense. By sheer weight of numbers, there are absolutely far, far more of these folks using Facebook and Twitter, even if they’ve had an account or two get deleted.
