Radical Leftist Disillusioned By Leftist Culture

I explained this to you.

It's enlightening which answers you choose to ignore.

Well it would be if you had any intention of englightening anyone.

Does it go away with a smiley then?

They hold about as much weight as your post, but are more fun to look at

So how many votes did you get at the last moderator election, oh non-authoritarian one?

[rachelbean]

I don't remember, however many active mods there were at the time (I think five). But of course, that's not the right way to do it and is proof of my fascist streak. I still don't know why you care so deeply about what is, in your opinion, such an unimportant site.

Sorry rev, I'll split this as soon as I'm in front of my laptop.

So moderators still elect moderators? Uh-huh.

Look, I didn't call you a fascist, and you are not one. But when you said you were a progressive leftist, I just wondered how you reconciled that with your support for the hardening of authoritarian structures on this forum. If you haven't got an answer for that, don't worry.

To be honest, I don't really care very deeply about it. Rationalia is pretty unimportant. It's just that when people are contradicting themselves, I think it's worth asking how they reconcile it to themselves. Progressiveness and leftism obviously mean something different to you than they do to me.

Not that that need worry you. Anyway, no need to split the thread. Everything discussed is entirely in the spirit of the opening post.

Red herring. You still haven't addressed my point.

Does it appear with your baseless assertion then?

I answered it for her. If you haven't got a rebuttal for that, don't worry.

Bullshit. That's the only reason you appear to post here.

[Exi5tentialist]

You haven't got a bloody point! You just keep referring vaguely to some explanation you gave. But it isn't there! As usual.

[pErvinalia]

"As usual"? Is it actually possible you ARE Seth?

The point is there and you ignored it.

Exisethilism. Now there's a philosophy.
