For posting all the anonymous reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: Do not post public figures, these should be posted to c/El Chisme

I don't think that happened. I'm very skeptical of the idea that willfully letting reactionary thought slide because you're preemptively afraid of "losing people" is ever a solid strategy. Truth is truth. Throwing around words like "dumb" is ableist and lazy in any context. Someone (or their argument) being "dumb" is never the root problem. Uninformed, out of touch, willfully ignorant, false consciousness, motivated by racism, motivated by self or class interest, these are the real roots of reactionary thought like in the OP.
People are capable of learning to take good faith crit from comrades and learn something without throwing a tantrum about it.
i agree with your sentiment but using "blinded" as an alternative to ableist terminology is a bit jarring.
You're right. In my defense it was 2 am for me at the time.
I fixed it and IMO my argument is much better now. Thank you.
