They're an odd sort of troll.
Could you please cool it? We really don't need these kinds of personal attacks.
I disagree with this person too, but that doesn't make it okay to slander them. Attack arguments, not people.
Understood. But when he said that about your conversation with him, I got annoyed, because you've never defended any Nazi newspapers.
But you're right, no need to stoop to their level.
My level being an accurate reference to specific events I'm prepared to source.
When you recognize you were wrong, your beliefs are supposed to change.
I don't think I was wrong. My beliefs haven't changed, and I stand by everything I said. My opinion of you hasn't changed whatsoever. But I also recognize that this isn't my community, so I will abide by the rules. But nah, fam, nothing has changed on my end. :)
The person in question told you I was right, and you agree with them, but still pretend I'm wrong.
Which is different from the ingroup-based reality I described... somehow.
I think you are misrepresenting his response, which is something you are prone to do. In fact, he said, "but I do think they’re misrepresenting it."
I won't give my real thoughts on you, as I don't want to go against the rules of the person who runs this community.
Again, I stand by everything I said. My opinion about you hasn't change at all. :)
'He kinda did.'
'I kinda did.'
Troll.
And again, I stand by what I said about you, and my opinion hasn't changed at all. But I don't wanna break the rules of this community, so I can say it. But I did say it earlier, and I still believe it. I just won't say it again here.
But don't worry, if I come across you in a more permissive forum, I'll gladly repeat it all. :)
Having said that, I agree with the article posted as well. :)
What's not permissive about this forum? Here's our list of rules:
That's it. This community essentially has no rules. Here's the modlog, there are two entries there, and both are from an admin of this instance.
I haven't picked any other mods because there's no mod burden. I intend to keep the rules very loose to keep it that way, because I value free speech.
Wasn't meant as an attack on you or your comm. I just want to call him names and stuff, like he attacks other people in his comments.
You have a great community. But he calls people names, so I'll call him names. Just not here. You and your community have class. I don't. So it's really a matter of me not wanting to disrespect your comm. :)
Yeah I've already saved this thread for when you lie about me to someone else. Called that in the first comment.
Meanwhile someone in your ingroup admits they did exactly what I said, but they said nuh-uh before repeating exactly what I said they said, so it doesn't count. Again: first comment.
Honestly, thank you for being an uncomplicated example of exactly what I'm talking about. I could put a sticker on your forehead and you'd try rubbing it off the guy in the mirror.
Good. Because again, i stand by everything I said. And thank you for reinforcing exactly what I have always thought of you.
And I also stand by the article I posted. :)
