oh look, danglars back to shitposting, AGAIN. using his usual pattern of coming back to assert something is true, despite it having previously been brought pu in thread, and thoroguhly disproven/countered; but he comes back, asserting the same thing as before, without addressing the counterpoints. shitty argumentation that should be banworthy, but somehow sadly isn't.
and ofc he's still postin gin the wrong thread, for a case that's claerly a Euro thread issue and isn't relevant to american politics.

Oh look Zlefin is back to backseat moderating. Have you ever read the 10 commandments? If so it would seem like you missed a line or two, so go read it again and come back a better poster/person (they are pretty applicable to life as a whole).

it's actually 4D trolling, getting someone in trouble for backseat moderating by not-quite backseat moderating.

In all seriousness though do we need this to be zlefin's personal Twitter account where he rants about people he doesn't like, most notably Danglars?

I am fully aware of the irony and the shark-infested waters I find myself in

I can assure though, no trolling was intended - merely pointing out that the farce has probably run it's course by now and maybe don't throw rocks when living in a glass house etc etc etc.

blah, a whole bunch of nonsense happening now, that could so easily have been avoided with proper moderation. all this adhd stuff could've been done soooo much better, all it takes is a touch of moderating.

Very little of what happens in the topic isn't nonsense. If we were eliminating nonsense then some posters would have to be prevented from posting anything at all. The thread serves as a centralized nonsense depot.

For future reference the poster in question was banned for what the above two were complaining about.

The dude's posting style actually jives pretty well with Sartre's "why you shouldn't try to talk with an anti-semite"

"Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."

I know theoretical legal defenses are a thing apparently

No, but wow. Surprised how involved in that conversation I was without even posting.

Is the "Things that would get you arrested in Germany" worse or better than the "if you don't put what the president said in quotes you might get banned " standard in the thread?
