    No there’s no reason to call me that. I said i for distracted and it was like a train wreck. You know you shouldn’t look or engage unless you have something to offer without clogging up bw but then you do because whatever reasons (in this case distracted, then amused Ava amazed by what Kelly poppin in my inbox. Does unsubscribing from the sub stop inbox replies to comments? I also said I was busy, yes i know and have a superficial understanding of the term, and how would I know what to search for that wasn’t censored/blocked/bad faith info without asking for a general direction?

      Hard disagree. I gave you several valid reasons for calling you that.

      You know you shouldn’t look or engage unless you have something to offer without clogging up bw but then you do because whatever reasons (in this case distracted, then amused Ava amazed by what Kelly poppin in my inbox.

      What? Can you rephrase that into something that a native English speaker would understand?

      yes i know and have a superficial understanding of the term, and how would I know what to search for that wasn’t censored/blocked/bad faith info without asking for a general direction?

      There’s this magical thing called a “search engine”. You take a word that you don’t know the meaning of, which in this case apparently is “tankie”, and you type it into the search engine. Here is an example.

      Are you completely unfamiliar with how to use the internet? How did you find Lemmy in the first place?

          Yeah? And?

          I know that you struggle with understanding extremely basic concepts, like “inform yourself before speaking as if you were informed”, or “search engines allow you to find information”… but do I really need to spell out to you that you are under no obligation to continue talking to someone that you find obnoxious?

          I honestly can’t tell if you’re really dumb enough to not know that, or if you’re just so full of blind vanity that you think you’re going to somehow “win” the conversation by continuing it, despite the well warranted abuse you’re receiving along the way.

          Not only is it ok to say 'Hey, I was wrong," people will actually give you a lot of credit for being willing to say that. It’s not a sign of weakness; quite the opposite. If you’re never willing to admit to being wrong, you’ll never grow as a person .

            I’m not convinced I was. I finally saw part of the problem was not defining our terms. I defined mine, and right-wing-authoritarian does not implicitly “fascist” in any stretch, using the term as described by a a altrmyer.
