i may or may not have turned into a spawnist...

[st4tic]

@Rusty wolfie allowed spawnism apparently

[Rusty]

I know but it genuinely makes no sense and is an awful thing all around

[st4tic]

if i'm being COMPLETELY honest i also dislike the things it encourages, especially to young children

[yumi]

who's wolfie

[st4tic]

@yumi nightmarewolfie, a co-admin

[yumi]

@st4tic o thx

[Rusty]

@yumi It's a religion that stirs from a Roblox game. Basically they worship "the spawn" (which is just a logo made in MS paint a decade ago for the Roblox Spawn Point.) The "religion," which is really just a cult, causes people to harm themselves to please the spawn. People have DIED because of it, and for some reason it's allowed on here.

@TH4TTR4N5F3M_VA where is the good part though?

[Rusty]

There is none. They just say that to get people to not question WHY they decide to turn to it in the first place

[UnpaidIntern]

@Rusty It kinda just feels like a really dumb and dangerous way for lonely people (mostly children) to feel like they're accepted as part of a group

[Rusty]

Exactly

[UnpaidIntern]

@Rusty most predatory online groups aren't joined for any particular reason other than the promised reason of social validation, which they then use to pressure victims into adopting whatever "normal" the group follows.

[Rusty]

Yeah spawnism really relies on pressure to get people to join it. I forgot the exact way they did it, but I can remember watching videos about it and seeing that they're recruited members via pressure.

[Rusty]

It's just an awful thing around, there are no positives to it and there was no reason to unban it on this website. Especially if there's the possibility someone could be converted on here by another user

[HONEST.+-]

Yeah it's actually horrid and spawnism is a cult I recommend you stay away from because, Not trying to hate on it but it don't give you no eternal life and stuff like that, It has THAT on it, And there is no, "be careful" Nah it's all bad. Idk why it was unbanned cause it's actually horrible and literally Satan's child practically.

#BanSpawnism

[UnpaidIntern]

There isn't any real concrete definition on what is a religion, a cult, or just a weird group. I don't think the label that spawnism falls under should have any effect on how it's treated.

[Rusty]

I'd call it a cult

[HONEST.+-]

Yeah a cult would be a better way to put it no?

[Rusty]

Regardless of what it is, like internet said, the impact it has had is alot more important. However If you were to actually classify it as something, it would be a cult

[Rusty]

"internet" bro autocorrect what are we doing I said INTERN
