And I don't think I'll ever understand you people who live in this weird dimension where everything is an extreme and nuance doesn't exist.
But hey, in the spirit of cooperation, I'll gladly share the extra straw I have out back, 'cause it seems you enjoy building strawmen.
There's no extreme here buddy, except yours. You admit guy is an asshole, then complain that people didn't want to continue working with said asshole. Why does he have the right to be a terrible person, but his coworkers don't have a right to cut ties with him?
I never said anything about rights. Again you're putting words in my mouth. Gross. Stay out of my mouth.
Of course people have the right to choose not to work with him. What I'm saying is that it's morally wrong to force him out of his own show because he used to be a horny, creepy jerk. He's (probably) learned his lesson and nobody else will be "victimized" by him, so all forcing him out does is harm the show and him. Nobody benefits.
"I'm not saying they can't not work with him, I'm just saying it's morally wrong to not work with him."
There's actually alot more than this single issue to him being let go anyway (not that you care,) but it's super telling about you as a person that you're dying on this hill that it's infinitely more morally wrong to refuse to work with a pedo creep than it is to be a pedo creep.
You keep putting words in my mouth. Is it a fetish thing? I don't wanna kink shame, but I did ask you to stop a few comments ago.
Since you seem to have a need to paint someone as the "bad guy" in this conversation, why don't I help? It's you. You're the bad guy. You repeatedly, blatantly attribute false quotes to me, then use those false premises to try to win an argument that you started. There are only so many "putting words in my mouth" and "extra straw" jokes I can make, so I'm done.
Congratulations! You win by default. Go tell all your friends and neighbors that you beat back the evil forces of nuance and mutual understanding with nothing but a battalion of straw men.
Summarizing what you said isnt putting words in your mouth.
You need to understand that quotation marks are used around speech summations, as well as direct quotations.
It makes you look foolish, to keep pointing at a proverbial windmill and scream about the giant on the hilltop.
You really can't deal with being wrong, can you? I feel bad for you. Life must be hard, being unable to admit your own faults and constantly projecting onto others. I bet all your friends secretly hate you, assuming you have any at all.
You know those are intentionality inaccurate summaries, but you just can't help yourself. Your little obsession with trying to make me look bad is, as you love to condescending say, cute, but I'm over it.
Just please don't follow me around Lemmy. You were wrong. You made a mistake. Accept it and move on.
Damn, learning what a summary is fuckin cut you to your core, huh boo boo bear?
You wanna try flailing blindly again? You might land one
The sneak edit is cute, but you realize both of these convos are in the same thread, right? Like, I just scrolled down a bit?
I could also razz you on your defense of a creepy pedo pest if you want, but you kinda got dragged through the mud so I figured that was covered
