Lots to unpack in this somewhat ranty article, but also some food for thought.

      Doubling down on the fash-talk, eh? Bold move, Cotton. Let’s see if it works out…

        You realize you’re accusing the creator of the Solarpunk lemmy instance (the place you signed up to), of being a fascist, right?

          If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck. You’re the one supporting a solution that would dislocate millions, responding to logic with personal attacks, and topping it off with an appeal to authority.

              I assure you that I have no idea what that’s supposed to mean. I’m wondering if this is the kind of server where the power tripping mods ban accounts that question their authority.

                If you’re new to the Lemmy-verse, Hexbear is a lemmy instance known for supporting authoritarian tankie viewpoints.

                I’m wondering if this is the kind of server where the power tripping mods ban accounts that question their authority.

                You’re not really questioning their authority, you’re directly accusing the admin they’re a closeted tankie merely by them suggesting it’d probably be more efficient if more people lived in cities.

                  There’s so much fucked up in your post that I’m debating with a straight up block, but I’ll point it out for the benefit of those who don’t know how to spot bad faith actors. You’re accusing me of being authoritarian because I pointed out the authoritarian tone of the posts before me. Classic gaslighting. Your final sentence is a real banger because you’ve invented a whole new reality to support your delusions. I’m always astounded at the creativity and genius involved in this kind of scumbag behavior. If you had any integrity you’d be impressive.

                    I wasn’t accusing you of being authoritarian, I said this isn’t Hexbear to differentiate Slrpnk.net from a place that supports authoritarian positions.

                    To put it more clearly, I’m saying “My guy, this place doesn’t support authoritarianism like that other infamous place that does. Your accusations would apply if you were talking about Hexbear, but seem wildly out of place here.”
