Is it a mandatory rule on .world that you have to explicitly point out .ml users instance in every interaction? You all seem to do it compulsively, like literal bots.

Amazing that you see a post about bots and immediately start ranting about how they should block all the commies

Try to be a “healthy society” by your definition while sharing a border with Russia.

Try being a healthy society when you share a border with NATO

I’ll let Google answer this one for you

Answer what? I wasn't asking you, I can see clearly you don't know what it means, which is why you're copy pasting walls of ai text (like a literal bot) to distract from the fact that you tried to invoke the phrase where it wasn't remotely applicable because you think of it as essentially a magic incantation.

Lazy rote ad-hom. Are you sure you're not the bot?

And I'm not exactly ashamed of being banned by abusive children like wren or jordanlund

Yeah, but they've been trained to treat anyone who disagrees with them as non-human

Shift those goal posts a little further. I’m sure nobody will notice.

Lol, you don't even know what the phrase "shift the goalpost" means, do you? You just saw it used on Reddit and think it's some kind of magic spell that wins arguments

This post is a great reminder that when you people say "bot", you just mean "people who disagree with me"

1/3 bots especially on very heated political memes on the front page. I’m automatically just blocking out the “voting is useless, don’t vote” sentinment, very unproductive.

What you mean is that you find it easier to write off everyone with political differences to you as not human than to acknowledge people disagree with you.

Open conversations, as opposed to insults that only serve to drive people apart, are more constructive.

You say, having used an insult in your first sentence

too nuanced for ML?

Is there a rule when you join .world that you have to explicitly point out .ml user's instance every time you see them? You realize this is just lazy ad-hom.

As for 1984, it's a critical description of British authoritarianism, which is then projected onto the USSR in a "I have already depicted you as a soyjack" kind of way. Which makes sense given your reference to Catch-22, which is based on the authors own experience in WW2. Meanwhile Orwell's own experience was composing lists of communists and minorities for the British government (and being a rapist, bust that's neither here nor there).

Ultimatum, describing a one dimensionaly evil society, then pointing at your ideological enemies and declaring "this may not describe you in any literal sense, but it's you thematically!" is a completely vacuous thing that anyone can do to anyone and there's no real way of arguing one way of the other.

I find that the online left is as punishing of any disagreement with the agenda as MAGA is, if not even more.

What a shock, you find people who you disagree with disagree with you more than people you agree with. Very interesting insight.
