      He can slander them and make strawmen but as soon as they’re invited to the same stage now it’s evil. Weird how one can create strawmen but can’t deal with the actual people.

      I’d rather not mention the org I work with by name for my own security reasons, plus my involvement is limited for now so it would lean more stolen valor until I can increase my involvement.

      Oh fuck off, don’t drag the tankies I’ve blocked into a thread talking shit about them. What an amazing idea for constructive conversation!

        So you want to dismiss them but don’t want to actually have them combat your strawmen? Good idea, surely you’re not posting your ass by doing this.

            People defending themselves after you told other people they believe a bunch of shit you just made up isn’t harassing you.

              Correct, I’m not. I’ve been bluntly honest and fairly specific the whole time. Do you not know what bad faith means? It wouldn’t surprise me, when you think endlessly bickering with sea-lions is the only the appropriate response, and anything less must be proving them right.

              There’s people whose behavior I’ve long since written off as consistently irrational, infuriating, and worst of all, shielded by their equally shitty moderators and admins. Why the fuck would I want to hash it out with them, for your amusement?

                Not my amusement at all, I don’t really care too much. It’s just kinda weird that you talk about people and then when they are invited to the same soap box it’s fowl play to you.

                Also more strawmen from you about me isn’t helping your case. You can’t build an argument from an army of them.

                  Aren’t you being a little hypocritical when you participate in a community that doesn’t allow people to defend themselves?

                  people also have the right to block people they don’t like, simple as, you can’t get upset over that

        Well that’s a wonderful way to make sure your preconceived notions can never be altered by evidence.

          Give proven trolls endless chances, says infuriating dingus. Surely recognizing someone’s an asshole based on how they act over and over and over is the same thing as prejudice.

          You’re not allowed to have an opinion unless you can show me receipts, right now.

            I’m not a troll, anyone can go through my post and comment history and tell that I put a serious effort into learning and studying theory, discussing it with others, and in recent months have begun doing actual org work IRL (though limited for now). I’m often called a troll as ad hominem meant to discredit anything I say, but that’s just not accurate. It’s just easy to reduce me to a troll to justify not actually listening to what I say, I suppose.

                Yea, it’s odd, but figured I’d respond to their claims anyways for others to see. Maybe they don’t want to feel “dogpiled on” even if they can’t see? Plus I think I’m the only one that actually responded anyways out of that list, and the Yogthos mention looks broken anyways.

                    Yea, there are a few users that have permanent hatred for me and will mention me out of the blue like that as someone they specifically hate, terminally online behavior IMO but whatever.
