This makes no sense to me. There's people in the comments literally telling me to go kill myself and that's fine but, me politely disagreeing is worthy of a 30 day ban.

B-but I just want to have a civil debate about why genocide is ok, why won’t anyone be nice to me? Wyahhhhh, such toxicity! People are so small minded if they can’t accept ethnic cleansing :(

There's a user in this thread calling us the genocide deniers while Israel unceasingly and unrepentantly destroys Gaza and its people. Like. No self awareness. No historical awareness. Just 'Oh I have a more nuanced view of the situation'. Nuance my fucking gooch.

It's only ever the whites going to bat for Israel's commission of genocide, too-- why? Because what Israel's doing is 1:1 with what the colonizer pilgrims did to America. So no, I am never going to support that; because given my way, my lineage NEVER would've been stolen by crackers in the first place. I'd rather still fuckin be Afrikan than have to be lumped in with these murderous settlers.

Dudes, Duderinas and people from all around... While I said something in the meta-debate here, I'm not engaging in the underlying argument. What are you trying to accomplish here? The people you are talking about are suffering horrible atrocities. All you can think about is hating on each other on the internet... (There has to be a better way to deal with the situation.)

Is pineapple good on pizza? <— a debate

Are human rights guaranteed to all humans? <— a fucking ghoulish question that you deserve to be mocked for “debating”

[–] rufus@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I've asked what the mocking itself accomplishes.

[–] frauddogg@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 11 months ago

Social sanction has been a part of human community dynamics since we first progressed past grunts and gestures; and you're gonna ask a sealioning question like that.

Have you asked the same question about your disingenuous hand wringing? 🤔

[–] rufus@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Sorry, can you please re-phrase that question?

[–] Iraglassceiling@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I’ve asked what the pearl clutching itself accomplishes.

You need to dumb it down a bit if you want me to understand. Give me a bit of context. Who is doing what?

[–] Iraglassceiling@hexbear.net 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You can’t set me up like that, I’m tapping out. Someone else explain basic human decency to this person, plz.

Yes please, don't do brigading but I didn't get you. And you kind of 'answer' questions with different questions.
