MODERATORS
I do have a problem with rising fascism destroying constitutional rights in America.
If you don't have a problem with that, you're part of the problem.
So, Dr. Lemmy, what do you diagnose me with? Empathy for my peers? Rage against the Machine?
Imagine reading my whole statement endorsing a conservative political space and this being the bit you wanted to pedantically bicker about.
The bit criticizing fascist violence.
Ladies and gentlemen, exhibit A.
What about that statement are you exhibiting to who? Your bs being directly addressed?
You can't respond in earnest because what I said is true so you speak to an imaginary crowd instead as a coping mechanism.
Enjoy crying to nobody.
You want a direct answer? Fine, you asked for it.
You're the problem with Lemmy. You and other wild-eyed, foaming-at-the-mouth political zealots.
If you introduce me to a carbon copy of myself - one that agrees with every single opinion that I have - but he had even a fraction of the zeal and obsession that I see here I would be running for the hills.
It's off-putting and downright terrifying to see evidence that people capable of such obsession exist outside of asylums.
You didn't address anything I said. Ironically, you just had a foaming at the mouth meltdown because somebody is of a different political orientation than you.
My post had 2 political topics:
How much I hate the conservative endorsement of political violence against their fellow citizens.
I endorsed the moderation of the conservative instance on Lemmy as the best I've seen on this site.
You didn't address either of these points.
Holy shit. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
Want people to like Lemmy? Turn down the rhetoric.
Want to scare people off? Stay at eleven.
Your call. I'm out.
Take your own advice before dishing it out. You can't even respond to me without having a meltdown.
I clearly laid out my points for you to engage, and you knew you couldn't handle it, so you ran away. Seems like I was spot on when I said you couldn't engage in earnest.
