        I've only experienced that from them since I've known them. Not one wants a good faith discussion until you grovel to their fundamentalist tripe. Unity to them means blindly following their half-understood theories of centuries-dead men, and anyone who questions a lick of it gets the 4chan swarm treatment.

          OP literally did not attempt to have any discussion of any kind, and explicitly said they had no interest in doing so

          that's the definition of "not in good faith" homie

              No, good faith argument is being a debatelord, as was explained to me at length in the last post. People who just happen to see the post and respond are all brigading if they come from an instance that has a cross-post. Them's the rules.

              Don't bullshit me that there is a proper way to argue with that fucker, he demonstrated at length that there was not.

              Why can't an OP have a good faith argument if the post gets "brigaded"? That doesn't really make sense to me. Anyone can choose to argue in good faith regardless of how the other party behaves.

                Well for several reasons.

                1. You have to find someone who actually wants to have a good faith argument with you.

                2. You have to be disciplined enough to only argue with them, as you will expend energy arguing with the 500 other commenters who are just trolling you.

                3. Actually be able to go through your inbox and find the replies of the person you think is actually acting in good faith.

                4. Be in the mood to argue in good faith. Which is unlikely from the begining, basically impossible at the end.

              Can't have a good faith argument with people we have no faith in. Eat shit

          what part of db0's crosspost was calling for good faith discussion? Did you look at it? https://lemmy.ml/comment/5783449

            When they don't have a counterargument, they attack your character. It shows just how strong their foundation of understanding is that a simple debate or differing viewpoint is a dire threat to their entire worldview. It's extremely pathetic tbh.

              I think they just observed that you generally ignored the counterarguments and correctly concluded that presenting yet another to you is absurd, but of course you pick that as the comment you respond to

              Also calling someone a dweeb isn't a character attack, like calling them a moron isn't.

              I'd fucking love to talk with someone here on terms of argument and counterargument, but that is considered "sealioning" by every fucker I've encountered so far on this worthless anarcho-bidenist instance

                Any form of name-calling or declaration in regards to the individual and not the subject of debate is an appeal to character, and is the last resort of those who can't support their claim, second to violence.

                If I have "ignored" responses, it is because my app has not notified me that I have a response to a comment. To my knowledge, I have responded in-kind to every comment regarding this post, and even if I hadn't, one cannot be compelled to respond to every argument or point. It is entirely reasonable for me, on my own judgement, to deem a reply to be a waste of time or nothing worth adding to or drawing attention toward.

                Lastly, if you would like to make a claim and prove good faith, please do so here or in DMs. I would love to discuss philosophy and ethics. But let's do so in our own words. Quoting Manifestos will be just as effective to a productive discussion as quoting religious scripture. Convince me. Don't beat me with a dead man's words.

      The fact that you numbskulls don't even realize how significant fedjacketing is and why we don't do it, just says everything one needs to know.

    Well it works for us on Hexbear. That's actually what I like about it, it's a nice big tent over there. Some of our greatest posters are anarchists, they were indispensable on the frontline of the posting wars that followed federation. rat-salute

        I'm at least pleasantly surprised they actually tried to do the bare minimum of editing it to be less racist.

    Calling out the smuglord emoji doesn't diminish what a smuglord you are.
