Basically, there was a discussion about how instances have rules and Feddit also needs to abide by local (Austrian) law to not get in legal trouble. And I get called a Zionazi for saying that you cant just up and call for the massacre of civilians, regardless of which side you are on. It’s also ironic for Dessalines to mock me for sticking to rules and laws to protect our instance.
I also got recently permabanned (reason: Golden Rule #8) from Ye Power Trippin Bastards after I posted Dessalines banning me on .ml despite not having posted anything there in three weeks.

something something communists disdain to hide our views and aims
I agree and I view a commitment to honesty as being easily among the most powerful tools a communist can use, but I felt it was beneath ReadFanon, who I have a great deal of respect for, to address him with that type of argument.
Yeah I do too. He's up there with Cowbee as one of my fav effort posters, which is why it was surprising to hear that from him.
I get why you might try that in maybe some certain circumstances, but I certainly wouldn't and it doesn't feel like it would help our cause overall.
