The last few posts made here, they've shown up, made the most inane, idiotic, and pointless comments, upvoted each other in a frenzy of circle jerking, and generally made a pest of themselves.

They're a nuisance, and add nothing of value to the Lemmy experience.

If literacy standards have sunk so low that that's elitism, these are troubling times indeed.

I'm elitist? F me.

It truly is one of the eiser [longer] te reo names that are in our good green [or not so] country.

Seriously? Just as easy as Taupo, for example?

Surely you can't think that in good faith.
