    Am I reading this right? Are you saying basically “you may have a perfectly reasonable, consistent understanding that I can’t oppose in good faith but because other people might not like it you shouldn’t say it”?

    I want to also point out that you put the words “white people bad” in the mouth of the top level commenter. If you’re so concerned about people getting spooked by that rhetoric then maybe don’t drag it into a conversation!

        What a difference a month makes! It’s like I’m talking to a different person!

        You’re right you didn’t explicitly say that I shouldn’t use those words, but when you say that they’re too reductive, they make people feel attacked, result in polarization and are unacceptable it’s hard to reach the conclusion “oh, they’re just saying I should be more careful when using unacceptable rhetoric”. When something is not acceptable I don’t generally consider it fine if used carefully.

        And I want to restate theyre your words. If the mere invocation makes people tune out and ignore the speaker, why did you say them?

        Isn’t all this predicated on the assumption too that I’d go into long winded detailed explanations when not writing comments on the anarchist memes board of lemmy.ml?

        And to connect a string from my earlier comment, I said your reply was confusing and asked you to make it clearer. Difficult to interpret seemingly out of context statements like “we wouldn’t be dealing with any of this in the first place” were what confused me. What did you mean by that? What are we dealing with and how would truth reigning supreme keep us out of it?

          Yeah, you completely missed the fact that I referred to the full spectrum of people that will respond to your post. Both people that disagree with you, and agree with you.

          Ideally speaking yes, your long winded explanations should immediately strike as true in others minds. They don’t, sorry to burst your bubble.

          Also, no, I very explicitly stated “yt people bad, or any of the variants”. I’m aware you don’t read, hence the comment about skimming.

          Imagine considering yourself sound of mind when you can’t even handle talking to people that are essentially children. Stay on that high horse.

            I’m even more confused now. None of these people who disagree and feel attacked and repulsed by my rhetoric are here. None of them responded to my comments. None of them even downvoted my comments except one on my first reply to you.

            Why are you bringing up people who aren’t here a month after the fact?

            What other variant of “white people bad” is the topic of our discussion? How are variants germane to our conversation?

            There are plenty of people who might not respond well to long winded explanations all the time, and if I were talking to a person in that situation I wouldn’t be talking like I am here and now, because it’s different and we speak differently than we write.

            I’m starting to get the feeling that you disagree and feel attacked and repulsed by my rhetoric, which seems like a fair change from a month ago. Is that so?

              Fucks sake, every “problem” you’re bringing up I’ve already addressed. You’re confused because you don’t read 😂😂.

                  Why? I’ve read everything you’ve said, in response you’ve shown you can’t be trusted to do the same.

                  I don’t really care what you think. Some of your points are good, others show you just don’t fully read.

                    So you won’t tell me what I’m missing, but will restate over and over again that I just didn’t read?

                    Come on, I treated you with complete kindness and understanding and never downvoted your replies or assumed you were trolling. If you really think I’m missing a point, please show me the same courtesy I’ve paid you and point it out.
