You are acting in a way that comes across as the electronic version of mania

[–] irmoz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And you're trying to wield a psychiatric diagnosis in this discussion... why?

Well, I guess I'll take that as a "no".

[–] TheOubliette@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It doesn't take a specialist to recognize manic behavior.

And like I keep saying, you should probably take a break.

It's not your credentials I'm calling into question.

If you have ever been around manic people, you will know that they behave irrationally.

Sounds like youbwould prefer to end this conversation. Happy to oblige.

Oh, brother. Ffs. I'm talking about wielding psychiatric diagnoses. It's a blatant ad hominem. Your willingness to just whip out a mental health condition as a reason not to listen to someone makes me question your integrity.

It is a simple description of your erratic behavior. Rather than acknowledge the behavior you are yet again getting defensive and trying to make this a fault of mine. See the pattern?

Anyways I will be ignoring you now.

You are actually incapable of admitting fault, aren't you?

Notice that I didn't actually deny acting manic? Just like I never denied the behaviour that made me appear like a liberal. I only deny being a liberal, because I have thoroughly rejected the ideology - quite some time ago, in fact. Many years.

No, what I take issue with here is your use of an ad hominem, unjustified, and not even batting an eye at the sheer audacity of it.

As I mentioned, I won't be responding

[–] irmoz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Understood, easier to keep thinking you're 100% right that way.
