As do I; I had the freedom to delete my account, thus avoiding the need for any active measures to make my life free of schizoposting.

TIL there's many Charlie Kirk fans amongst fans of cars?
If this is intended to accuse me of being a Charlie Kirk fan I can only conclude that you either did not read what I wrote (in which case, you should refrain from replying to it), or you are being dishonest on purpose.
I don't see how you made that leap. It was directly in reference to your reply:

> I was on an automotive-focused instance. I did see a lot of that.

They were more or less just rewriting what you wrote.

> They were more or less just rewriting what you wrote.

The literal opposite of what I wrote, actually, because "that" refers to "celebrating the murder of Charlie Kirk", an activity not much associated with fans of Charlie Kirk.

Thanks for the clarification.

Ouch, yeah, thanks for the explanation. Total reading comprehension failure on my part.
