It is my astute and reasoned opinion that carcosa is right and the other person is acting quite silly

carcosa is right
were you promised a crown and an empire?
I need to point out that EVERY argument I get in when the other party is incredibly wrong, they get really semantic and make false claims about the other side being mean. Literally every time.
I see hexbearians asking for evidence of "ableism", with no responses.
Just for anyone coming in and needing context, the final exchange is here
Are they saying it's victim blaming when they said the entire point of their post was to get people to argue?
Or they are upset their own comm isn't getting moderated by other instances which they also hate because that's overreacting
They are just having a tantrum and in true Western "leftist" fashion they prefer to claim to be the aggrieved party and using this to lash out.
IRL you've gotta get ahead of this kind of thing because it is rampant and toxic and often just a cover for bullying or abusive behavior.
Wild seeing how often mods or admins just put their ass out at the slightest response.
For example on the dbo powertrippingbastards comm worlds Lund is going wild on anyone pointing how how much of a power tripping mod they are
An extreme aversion to introspection or receiving criticism tends to create these scenarios and tends to go hand-in-hand with self-soothing egotistical behaviors. It frequently comes from a place of pain but at some point a person needs to have responsibility for the harms they cause or to be ostracized to prevent further harm.
Holy shit what an ass

It was funny when he saw Diva mentioning she organized as some attack on him while he was arguing how she wasnt a real anarchist for having an ml account
For the record while I may be an influencer 
I am not organizing attacks on anyone
No organizing going on. Our “brigading” is a true manifestation of anarchic energy.

the irony of him linking the "I'm a better anarchist than you" song, while literally their position amounts to being a better anarchist because they have the "correct" opinions on China, the USSR and Marx, and will not be swayed.
that is literally a satirical song about how you shouldn't be measuring yourself up against other comrades
Yup, and saying that I actually organize irl as an anarchist was intended to point out that it how silly it is to declare people's politics based on a handful of lines of text online.
I could have certainly been less snarky, but I'm not the one passing judgement on people as not being good enough anarchists.
I was annoyed at getting called a red fascist yet again, this time for mocking the abuse of the disengage rule in clear bad faith.

I am once again out of the loop 
No idea what this is about
Here's the original thread: TRUE COMMUNISM
it was clearly bait, but people responded in earnest
how it started:
two minutes later:
Example of something that isn't ablism:
"I don't want to be seen as conceding the point"
This is the first time I've seen people push back on the Spain thing, because our friend there is right that the way db0 characterizes it as some "stabbed in the back" story is truly ridiculous. Like, there are no shortage of stories around the world of much more credible transgressions by communists against anarchists, and the communications building in Spain is not one of them.
It's interesting because I've never seen someone push back on it, so I've always assumed it was just one of past communism's L's that future commies will just have to learn and do better from, like the USSR migrating populations around or not producing small commodities.
I didn't know the story was different.
Yeah, I've even seen some apologists identify the conflict as starting with the capture of a communications building but with no context as to why it was being captured, as though it was some sort of Spanish anarchist "shot heard round the world," when it really was just that the anarchists were sabotaging Republican communications in the midst of the war against Franco, so the Republicans took the building over with the help of the communists. You get all sorts of people (revealingly, Trotsky included) waxing poetic about how unforgivable it is for the communists to be working with the Republicans instead of trying to immediately overthrow them while fascists were at the gates, but people still tend to not mention the sabotage by the anarchists. To be fair, the first time that I did see it, it was from an anarchist who defended it, so credit to them for being transparent and at least minimally informed, even if their priorities are terrible.
Edit: I should further clarify that I am sure many anarchists today disagree with the decision to sabotage the Republicans, even though I've never personally seen one say so. I think most of them would either change their mind if they knew more about it or would at least drop it as a talking point because they understand how bad it looks (though for someone like db, it might be more of a "can't use it here because the crowd got wise but still uses it elsewhere" kind of thing) (but most people aren't db).

Ah, silly boring bullshit then. Glad I missed it.
It was extremely silly, I went and had a nice day at the beach after I stopped checking that thread 
I fucking love the beach. Hope it was nice.
It was great! I went with a few friends and it was first time I'd been swimming around other people since I started HRT so that was nice to rock a swimsuit in public.
