@fluffykittycat While you are correct, Ben is unreasonably unkind to anyone who crosses his path, even allies and friends.
I am sure hes an intelligent person, but his attitude sure doesnt reflect it.
Im pretty tired of hatred, especially from people who are supposed to be on the same side, so I muted him.

@benroyce Such a calm and persuasive discussion.
Good to know you are emotionally regulated, and prepared to argue your position on its merits.

Or just call people names and rage, I guess.

For everyone rightfully outraged at the Discord news, I will remind you that IRC still exists.

@futurebird The playing cards are from Vietnam era atrocities, stuff they learned from their racist parents and grandparents.

@AnnaAnthro Cops are not Labor. They have a "fraternity" not a union.

@augieray I could have guessed Augie would block me. He seemed like the type that would brook no discussion on his pronouncements.

No loss for me. Like I said, I feel when you post in public, you should listen to arguments made in good faith. Otherwise you are just another talking point parrot.

I understand everyones pissed and raw right now, but fighting each other is what they want. Dont give in like Augie.

@augieray
The poster (and I) largely agree with your points. I personally feel you are over reacting to starting a discussion about one of them.

It is important to be open to dialog about things you present in public. We are here in this world to educate and entertain each other, and part of that is listening when you might be wrong, instead of insisting you are infallible.

This isnt a fight, its a discussion. Think about where you are firing, too.

@augieray
Fighting each other ain't it, chief.

@adwright Writing about how awful Nazis are on a site that supports and promotes Nazis is really something.

EDIT: That kind of response is really something too. Blocked of course.
