Okay? Where does that play into your slander about the .world 196 being filled with people who don't respect neopronouns?
So now it's not the .world 196, it's .world in general.
there was a pretty clear reason they left and went to .world, they fit the culture better there
I don't even use /196 I was just watching from the sidelines for that one lol
So first it was you asserting that .world 196 doesn't respect neopronouns, then it turned into .world has a tendency to have people who don't respect neopronouns, and now it's "I have a vibe that 196 doesn't respect pronouns, but I don't actually use 196".
btw, are you still banned from the 196 on Blahaj? Of course, you don't use it. :)
I was banned from blahaj 196 for suggesting that they have a healthy relationship with other people IRL instead of behaving terminally online, yes
you should re-block me your posts are awful
Don't believe I've ever blocked you, lmao
I wasn't seeing any of your posts for a blessedly long period of time. weird, wonder why that was if it wasn't a block
Ask your cretinous .ml admins to site ban me again from an instance I don't even post on for the sin of thinking that Ukrainians and Uyghurs are people. :)
I don't think they're from Crete, maybe you should try insulting people less in the future?
Someone from Crete is a Cretan, not a cretin. If you're going to loudly trumpet your position as ESL as a deflection of your own inability to parse basic English conversations, maybe you should take a step away from trying to correct the English of others.
I was just pointing out that your first response was ableist insult, am I not worthy of pointing out when an English speaking person is insulting people?
I thought you were trying to say it was an insult based on some form of nationality. You did, after all, say, and I quote
Unless being from Crete is a disability, you didn't point out, real or attempted, anything regarding ableism.
you called them 'cretins' which is an ableist insult, and I said I don't think they're from Crete. I was not saying that being from Crete is a disability, I was pointing out your insult
Implying that being from Crete is a disability, which it is not.
Maybe try being less cretinous.
we already established if you were calling them from Crete it would be Cretans, you're just insulting them and now me.
you're really not doing much to disprove my original point tbh
Correct, which is why your objection was baseless.
I never denied insulting them. The .ml admins are absolutely vile and cretinous.
if so then it surely takes one to know one
So we're in agreement that the .ml admins are vile and cretinous. :)
I'm not sure you're taking my meaning. if you're willing to insult people like that it says more about you than them
If it "Takes one to know one", then you are not merely affirming that I'm vile and cretinous, you are also necessarily affirming that my recognition of the .ml admins as vile and cretinous is correct by regarding my qualities as necessarily granting me insight as to whether or not the admins share said qualities.
I understand that might be too complex for you to parse on short notice, considering your previous difficulty with discerning the meaning of plainly stated reasons in the form of the written word regarding the 196 issue, but I'm sure that if you sit and ponder it for a few hours, it might eventually click.
I draw the line at ableist insult, but if you want to insult people like that I'm just going to assume you're doing so from a position of experience.
I can see why you have such a hard time with people offering real-world advice like 'dont try to force others people to change their opinions'
If it's an ableist insult, like you claim, wouldn't that mean you're insulting me on ableist terms?
hardly, I'm just pointing out that you're clearly speaking as the most authoritative person on the subject
But your claim of my authority is that I am cretinous, which is an ableist insult according to you.
It seems it takes very little to get you to whip out the ableist insults. That's pretty disgusting, ngl.
I believe it was you who started calling people cretins, also I didn't even call you anything, just observed that you are supreme authority on the matter
So if someone uses what you regard as an ableist insult, you think it's appropriate to use that same ableist insult against them? Wow. I'd hate to hear your opinions on the r-word.
Then we're in agreement that the .ml admins are cretinous, since I'm the supreme authority on the matter. Thank you for affirming my opinion, strange that you would go through all this trouble just to agree with me though. :)
if someone is running around calling people ableist slurs, it says more about them than anyone they're defaming
I agree, which is why it's horrific that you're calling me cretinous, when, by your own admission, you see it as an ableist slur. Very sad, even.
citation needed, I just observed that you seem to be the foremost expert on the subject matter based on how liberally you use the term for other people
This you?
yeah, I'm just deferring to your expert knowledge that you've demonstrated, what's the issue?
Would you like to explain what 'one' is here? Or are you trying to wiggle out of the fact that you are, by your own standards, a disgusting ableist?
I gotta say this is an impressive attempt to darvo this when you opened up by being like "all these people I don't like are cretins"
'If everywhere you go smells like shit, check your shoes' was essentially my response, but now I'm the one offender. Clearly you are just always put upon.
So you can't explain what 'one' means without admitting that you meant 'cretin' or 'cretinous', a term that you interpret as ableist.
Sorry that you're an ableist. It's pretty disgusting.
Not even close, lmao. But I don't expect much from disingenuous cretins. :)
pugjesus moment
I said, quite openly, that I don't find cretin an ableist insult. You said, quite openly, that you feel cretin is an ableist insult.
Sorry that you can't live up to your own standards? I'd say you should lower them, but I doubt you could live up to them then either.
🍿
I'm notnsure why you debated for so long, but it was quite the read lol.
Good work fighting the good fight pug.
I have trouble letting arguments go until they've no life left in them. Like leaving a painting on the wall slightly crooked.
An understandable thing, really, we all have our quirks. In other news I have perfectly aligned pens on my desk at home.
Do you insult everyone you disagree with? if so your chronic internet usage makes perfect sense.
Just the idiots.
That's quite an ableist interpretation.

There's something wrong with the text, got those weird-ass backwards letters and shit.
Something about "only knowing two ways to solve problems", I don't know, can't read moon language.
Your original point showing that you know nothing about the 196 split and that you baselessly spread slander about 196 not respecting neopronouns?
That original point is already long disproven.
I said that was the reason they left, because it was a huge debacle that nobody could miss when it happened.
I'm the esl person here, is reading what I'm saying instead of of making up shit really that difficult?
You didn't miss it, but apparently, you were completely incapable of parsing what was going on. Which is unsurprising coming from someone who bootlicks dictators and thinks that's leftism. :)
lmao, coming from someone who's claiming the 196 move was over .world not respecting neopronouns, when respecting neopronouns is still a rule on the .world 196 and has been since day 1 of the move.
maybe you should tell me what your narrative is then
Exactly what the 196 mods said, if you'd bothered to read literally any of the stickied posts that came up at the time. There was disagreement with the admins over how to moderate 196, especially regarding ban lengths and presumption of good faith.
But of course, you didn't read any of it. You made up a narrative that you suited your pre-existing biases, and proceed to spread it even though, but your own admission, you didn't follow the issue - apparently at all. Of course, you also claimed that you don't use 196 despite having been banned from 196, so maybe you aren't the most reliable narrator. :)
it's called /all I hadn't bothered the block the new 196 so it showed up, I commented because I took it as some earnestly asking for advice, rather than a cj thread
wonder what the good faith issue was 🤔
And then proceeded to complain about the ban in YePowerTrippingBastards, citing the 196 sidebar rules in your complaint. Clearly you had no clue where you were. :)
yeah, not hard to check those things after the fact?
