I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.

    ‘You are not being intellectually honest.’

    ‘When did I say that?’

    ‘Incorrect.’

    Again, because I can’t trust you to recognize the concept: paraphrasing.

      Nope. You said I was incensed. But you had no evidence to that effect. It was a lie. That’s okay, lots of people lie.

            It’s the root subject. It’s the thing you were so not-incensed about.

              That’s great, but I’m really only interested in talking about your lie. You’re welcome to explain why you lied if you ever admit to it. I’ll be interested in that. Otherwise, I’m just going to continue to mostly ignore anything else you have to say. Especially the long posts. Not going to read those at all. Not when they could be lies too.

                    Right, because you’re the protagonist of reality. Your lies don’t count. Even if they’re to a mod.

                    But someone saying you were offended by an imaginary insult, well, stop the presses.
