    And why are anti-authoritarians accidentally attracting the company of supposed anti-lefists? Imagine accidentally admitting in the subtext of your post that your understanding of leftism is that it’s inherently authoritarian.

    Honestly, the one unifying factor across all of the .ml defense squad is that they seem to have no idea what the words they’re using actually mean. They love making posts that sound fancy, but are truthfully vapid, and often meaningless. Or, in cases like this, completely miss the denoted meanings of their arguments.

      You mean that shaping society to fit some narrow, preconceived notion of utopia by any means necessary somehow involves coercion by force? What a shocking surprise! /s

      There’s a very good reason why Horseshoe Theory is verboten in those circles.

      This community is on my Local feed so every so often for the past few years when I see a thread that’s really overreaching to demonize a someone for acknowledging historical events, I have pointed that out.

      Thusly, every so often OP tries to start a personal fight with me, usually resulting in deleting my posts or banning me anywhere they can. Goat has reversed it a few times, unprompted, too.

      Like I don’t really care for .ml moderation and think its counterproductive. But I just think the beefs are more interpersonal than anything. This is more or less proof.

      So for context, I have expressed distain for the Roman Empire, so I am a literal demon to OP. I recognized Batista was a brutal dictator, once too. Cited a primary source, even.

      Check my post history and my modlog history. I haven’t ever account hopped, either.

          PugJesus is the master projector. He has alts that are on instance chats for when they talk about him.

          Aw, you still talk about me? How sweet! What is it, six months now without a presence on your instance, and I’m still the talk of the town!

        I’m confused. Were you saying this community uses sock puppets and creates fake posts?

        “This is more or less proof about how .ml moderation Isn’t That Bad™ because someone called me out for making false claims about this comm”

        Fucking lol.

        lmao

        You really think that’s why I dislike you? Disliking the Roman Empire (I didn’t even remember that about you, funny enough), and calling a brutal dictator who’ve I’ve condemned multiple times in the past, quite openly, as a brutal dictator?

        I don’t what’s worse - thinking that’s a believable lie, or actually believing it yourself.
