You're gonna sit there and pretend that I'm not describing a broader pattern of behavior on lemmy (particularly this community) toward OP in particular?
Nah, again with the victimization.
Standing up to bullying isn't victimization.
Yet there isn't bullying. Those comments get removed. Calling people out on bs opinions isn't bullying. People using strong words isn't bullying. Grow some fucking skin, champ, this is the internet. And before you start crying about it, no, this is not bullying.
A subset of the hateful comments being removed makes it not bullying?
Reading is hard.
I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually.
Swing and a miss.
We're not discussing anything anymore. Have fun totally not bullying OP.
How am I bullying you? Such fragility.
Didn't say you were. Said you were bullying OP.
When the fuck did I bully op on this thread?
This person constantly does this. He rewrites your statements to victimize either himself or someone else. You didn’t say anything about OP, or them- and yet, you’re on the defensive against false accusations.
It’s their M.O.
Eventually, they’ll aggravate you into saying something they can report you for.
So… technically, it’s true.
Yep
And here you go again, trying to pretend that I'm talking about this thread and not a broader pattern of behavior. We're talking in circles. This conversation cannot reach a meaningful conclusion.
No, don't twist or derail this.
When the fuck did I bully op?
This conversation cannot reach a meaningful conclusion.
You're now avoiding your own accusation. Tell me when did I bully op?
