The latest spat of USpol feedback has come to its inevitable conclusion. Magic Powers found himself a stupid hill to die on, and promptly died on it.

lol what mp nuked himself?

It is pretty sad since he obviously liked aspects of posting here. But it also clearly was not a good thing for him at this point, so I hope it works out well.

I'm really curious about what magic powers he thought he had and at what age. I tried searching for this lore but for obvious reasons it was a bit of a slog to get through and I didn't end up finding anything

I'm curious now too. I saw him post some truly baffling opinions in the uspol thread but never saw him him go past what relatively normal rw people think. What did he do/say?

Can't believe I am defending MagicPowers, but the guy has many flaws but I don't think it is fair to even put him in the same sentence as right wingers or alluding a connection any other way. Unless ofc we do that to everyone now who has any overlap at all.
I repeatedly clashed with him over what I believe is his tendency of having opinions that are based on not much but a feeling or spontaneous reaction initially, and then he goes out to find arguments to support these opinions. This happened both in the forum and in dms. He starts at an opinion, and then tries to prove it with his "arguments", like a lawyer trying to win a case for their client disregarding if they are actually innocent and often with arguments of procedure or technicalities.
He also plain sucks at arguing his points and is incredibly easy to bait, like by what must be TLs most controversial moderator who absolutely harassed him in a fashion that single handed brought down my opinion of this staff by a lot. Because of this, even when he had what to me felt like a reasonable point I could support he managed to make me cringe at the very least, or lose me completely as soon as he got into arguments with people. And later on his conduct had already made him prone to receiving kneejerk reactions where everyone is happy to dunk on him or dogpile him, which doesn't lead to improvement on his part thanks to his mentioned "qualities". There was a point where I expected him to leave because the pattern of him posting something and then getting push back in a manner that absolutely was more based on his history than his argument seemed very clearly established, but I guess it’s not surprising that the self-reflection for that wasn't there.
He is the type of person however that I could absolutely see getting pushed into some more extreme narratives by such behaviours, but that ofc would entail some personal responsibility on people who would absolutely not be willing to deal with that .
So in short, I am not a fan of the guy, but he is not right wing, he is just a dude on the internet who is bad at forming and arguing his opinions. Himself nuking is probably for the best because even if he wanted to keep posting here, I think he would need a fresh start with a clean slate. There are too many people who would give him a hard time because dunking on people is fun sometimes. I don't think he could fly under the radar for long, unless he takes a very prolonged break. And I bet every one of you who feel the desire to dig through his post history now would only do so to justify whatever shit opinion you have on him, so it’s for the better that you can't easily, because fuck that mindset.

who absolutely harassed him
He followed me from topic to topic inserting himself into exchanges I had with other posters in an attempt to score points. There's a cognitive bias where people assume that whoever is clearly stronger must be the aggressor but it's just not the case. He's essentially a chihuahua attacking a great dane at the dog park where the great dane gets blamed based on the subsequent injuries. If you actually look at our exchanges and who initiated you'll see he repeatedly came after me pursuing some kind of victory that he was simply not capable of getting.

I am referring to you repeatedly framing him as a nazi, completely unprovoked I might add, to the point where you get called off by another mod. You are not "stronger", you are just experienced at being a bully. You may prefer to frame it in a positive way, but being better at being a cunt is not something to be proud of most of the time.
And ofc I know that there is no point in talking to you about this, this response is purely for whoever else reads your bullshit response and might mistake it for an actual comeback.

But if I recall correctly that started with me saying that the Russian army were complicit in war crimes just like the Wehrmacht and he, unprovoked and unashamed, decided to explain that the Wehrmacht did nothing wrong. He then went on to explain that if all these murderous Nazis were guilty of something then surely they'd have been held accountable. As they were not then the only reasonable conclusion was that they did nothing wrong.
Maybe there's a longer way of responding to that than calling someone a Nazi but ultimately, that's Nazi shit. Nazi shit that he decided to just announce to the world as his own personal views. Nobody asked him. Nobody prompted him. He just got up one morning and thought "today is the day where I let them know that I'm on team Wehrmacht".
In any case, that was just one exchange. After that exchange he followed me around and kept starting shit. Sure, there was harassment, but I wasn't the one doing it. Your accusation was harassment, I pointed out that he was constantly starting shit with me, not the other way around, and your counterpoint was the time that I told him that he was engaging in Nazi apologism. That's not evidence of me harassing him.

No he did not say the Wehrmacht did nothing wrong. He brought up something about a bunch were not found guilty as a point against universally declaring anyone there a war criminal or something like that. Not an argument I would be very much in favour off, but pretty far from your claim. You abused how easy he is to bait by what I believe is deliberately misrepresenting what he said. And once again, you got called off by a mod buddy for it with the explicit statement that only your mod status saved you from being actioned there.

I'm not interested in relitigating what he said, even though he said anyone who was not explicitly found guilty by the post war courts did nothing wrong. It's not relevant to what happened subsequently.
The point is that he harassed me. He spent years following me from topic to topic starting shit with me and yet you're here lying about how I harassed him.

I am pretty sure you started it with that instance. But even if you didn't, it doesn't matter. You absolutely harassed him with that in that thread, there was 1 or maybe even 2 instances where you cam out of the blue with a "oh btw MP is a nazi" like response to something that was in no way directed at you in the russia war thread. "He started it" wouldn't cut it as an excuse for any user, even less so a mod. Maybe you 2 had prior history to that that I am not aware off, but that doesn't changed what happened, maybe it adds context to the "why", but that changes nothing about the nature of your conduct and what you did.
I bet that what you frame as MagicPowers coming after you at least simply started as him getting baited very easily by you and/or not giving you any benefit of the doubt because well, you are the guy who called him a nazi to the point that you get called off by another mod. You reap what you sow, but luckily for you MP seemed shit at farming.

Consider this, one of many examples.

I wasn't talking to him and I certainly wasn't saying the things that he decided to say and then accuse me of saying. He just follows me around and targets me.
But at least now you've moved on to "you reap what you sow" so I guess now the argument isn't that I was harassing him but rather I deserved to be harassed by him. Glad we could settle this.

Nope. I am saying that if you are a cunt towards people, they tend to be cunts to you. And the way I see it, you were a cunt to him first in the russia thread. And I already established that "he did it first" is no excuse. I am not excusing MagicPowers behaviour towards you, I question your framing of it as you being the poor victim that gets attacked unprovoked. You both can be wrong and probably are.

He spent years following me from topic to topic starting shit with me and yet you're here lying about how I harassed him. I am pretty sure you started it with that instance. But even if you didn't, it doesn't matter. You absolutely harassed him with that in that thread, there was 1 or maybe even 2 instances where you cam out of the blue with a "oh btw MP is a nazi" like response to something that was in no way directed at you in the russia war thread. "He started it" wouldn't cut it as an excuse for any user, even less so a mod. Maybe you 2 had prior history to that that I am not aware off, but that doesn't changed what happened, maybe it adds context to the "why", but that changes nothing about the nature of your conduct and what you did. I bet that what you frame as MagicPowers coming after you at least simply started as him getting baited very easily by you and/or not giving you any benefit of the doubt because well, you are the guy who called him a nazi to the point that you get called off by another mod. You reap what you sow, but luckily for you MP seemed shit at farming. Consider this, one of many examples. https://tl.net/forum/general/573090-things-arent-peaceful-in-palestine?page=454#9067I wasn't talking to him and I certainly wasn't saying the things that he decided to say and then accuse me of saying. He just follows me around and targets me. But at least now you've moved on to "you reap what you sow" so I guess now the argument isn't that I was harassing him but rather I deserved to be harassed by him. Glad we could settle this. Nope. I am saying that if you are a cunt towards people, they tend to be cunts to you. And the way I see it, you were a cunt to him first in the russia thread. And I already established that "he did it first" is no excuse. I am not excusing MagicPowers behaviour towards you, I question your framing of it as you being the poor victim that gets attacked unprovoked. You both can be wrong and probably are.
I'm not saying there wasn't mutual hostility. You're arguing something very different to your initial claim. You're now saying that I was mean to him and he was mean back which is completely irrelevant to your assertion of me harassing him. What you're now arguing is that okay, sure, he was actually harassing me, not the other way around, but I deserved it because I'm a cunt. If that's what you want to go with, fine, whatever. As long as we're clear that him following me around and inserting himself into exchanges I'm having with other people to attack me is not somehow me harassing him.

There's a cognitive bias where people assume that whoever is clearly stronger must be the aggressor but it's just not the case. He's essentially a chihuahua attacking a great dane at the dog park where the great dane gets blamed based on the subsequent injuries. If you actually look at our exchanges and who initiated you'll see he repeatedly came after me pursuing some kind of victory that he was simply not capable of getting. I am referring to you repeatedly framing him as a nazi, completely unprovoked I might add, to the point where you get called off by another mod. You are not "stronger", you are just experienced at being a bully. You may prefer to frame it in a positive way, but being better at being a cunt is not something to be proud of most of the time. And ofc I know that there is no point in talking to you about this, this response is purely for whoever else reads your bullshit response and might mistake it for an actual comeback. ofc I know that there is no point in talking to you about this, this response is purely for whoever else reads your bullshit response and might mistake it for an actual comeback. But if I recall correctly that started with me saying that the Russian army were complicit in war crimes just like the Wehrmacht and he, unprovoked and unashamed, decided to explain that the Wehrmacht did nothing wrong. He then went on to explain that if all these murderous Nazis were guilty of something then surely they'd have been held accountable. As they were not then the only reasonable conclusion was that they did nothing wrong. Maybe there's a longer way of responding to that than calling someone a Nazi but ultimately, that's Nazi shit. Nazi shit that he decided to just announce to the world as his own personal views. Nobody asked him. Nobody prompted him. He just got up one morning and thought "today is the day where I let them know that I'm on team Wehrmacht". No he did not say the Wehrmacht did nothing wrong. He brought up something about a bunch were not found guilty as a point against universally declaring anyone there a war criminal or something like that. Not an argument I would be very much in favour off, but pretty far from your claim. You abused how easy he is to bait by what I believe is deliberately misrepresenting what he said. And once again, you got called off by a mod buddy for it with the explicit statement that only your mod status saved you from being actioned there.

No, the harassment claim, as repeatedly stated, referred to the russia thread where you did what I said. I also don't think you deserve him going after you, but being like "yooo this guy follows me around and attacks me" after from my POV that is exactly what you have been doing to him in the russia thread is like... yeah ok, if that is true bad bad MagicPowers. Doesn't change the fact that you did the same to him in the russia thread. Now apply the same standard to your own behaviour and I am happy.
Given that I see your framing of the russia incident as inaccurate at best and having seen your general conduct of course I don't take your word for it. That is all I alluded to there, not that you deserved it, not that it is okay for MagicPowers to be hostile towards you out of the blue. I even have no problem saying you both harassed each other at different times. Probably true, the MagicPowers issue seems fixed, now go and fix that you harass people in this forum.

I think we have very different understandings of the word harassment and that's why we're talking past each other here.
