The only reason to get mad at someone calling you a bad leftist is if you think it might be true. People will absolutely prey on your insecurity to make themselves feel like their chronic posting habit is praxis. The solution is to not be insecure. Be humble, do honest self-critique. Don't let lonely people work out their frustrations on you. There is a difference between pipe-lining and emotional blackmail.
Thats really the only reasonable conclusion to make when encountering any of this shit, if its gonna be like this the least they could do would be to stop bullshitting and deflecting about it and instead just spell it out in the rules that its gonna be this way from now on.
I’m just going to report any harassment I see on sight, and disengage every time they try some shit
Looks like reporting won’t be enough if you are in the wrong comm because admins don’t see reports. So if you are in a comm controlled by certain mods then you will be banned and harassed further
Admins are apparently ok with this arrangement
