 ryblade | * that's all i'm gonna say for now, time to take a break (inb4 shut up ryblade, block me if i trigger you so much) | 22:31:18 |
 @piegames:matrix.org | How is this related to this discussion in any way? | 22:31:33 |
| ryblade | * i guess my being a sexual minority, being in a relationship that's in a gray area of legality in my country, being born with a highly misunderstood form of neurodiversity, having multiple medical stigmas, surviving multiple forms of abuse, and coming from Jewish ancestry doesn't count for much whenever someone wants to paint my opinions as somehow belonging to the Nazis. i wasn't going to go into detail on every stupid little "minority" i belong to but i've been left no choice after such an absurd, disgusting, ignorant accusation. | 22:32:23 |
| ryblade | * i guess my being a sexual minority in more ways than one, being in a relationship that's in a gray area of legality in my country, being born with a highly misunderstood form of neurodiversity, having multiple medical stigmas, surviving multiple forms of abuse, and coming from Jewish ancestry doesn't count for much whenever someone wants to paint my opinions as somehow belonging to the Nazis. i wasn't going to go into detail on every stupid little "minority" i belong to but i've been left no choice after such an absurd, disgusting, ignorant accusation. | 22:33:27 |
| ryblade | * i guess my being a sexual minority in more ways than one, being in a relationship that's in a gray area of legality in my country, being born with several highly misunderstood forms of neurodiversity that are denigrated and mocked all the time even in "woke" media, having multiple medical stigmas, surviving multiple forms of abuse, and coming from Jewish ancestry doesn't count for much whenever someone wants to paint my opinions as somehow belonging to the Nazis. i wasn't going to go into detail on every stupid little "minority" i belong to but i've been left no choice after such an absurd, disgusting, ignorant accusation. | 22:34:47 |
 Irenes | I don't know what to do with any of that, none of it seems to relate to the RFC in any way | 22:38:14 |
| Irenes | Thank you for sharing | 22:38:19 |
| ryblade | i was accused of pushing "far right antisemetic conspiracy theories" after voicing my concerns that enforcing cultural norms with an RFC could be a path to cultural marxism, if marxism is the cultural norm that is chosen. it's on topic. | 22:39:43 |
| ryblade | but again, break time. just wanted to bring ya up to speed. | 22:39:56 |
| Irenes | all right. well, you have said your piece. | 22:40:00 |
| ryblade | not getting into it. | 22:40:02 |
| ryblade | In reply to @irenes:matrix.org
all right. well, you have said your piece. yup. | 22:41:29 |
 problems | none of this is relevant to the rfc. can we please stay on topic? | 22:41:44 |
| problems | if it concerns you so much, there are plenty of other gender/sexual/neurodiversity/etc minorities here that disagree with what you're saying, myself included | 22:42:42 |
| problems | there's no need to pull out that card as a weapon | 22:43:03 |
| ryblade | it was a defense against being called a nazi | 22:43:40 |
| problems | nobody called you a nazi | 22:43:57 |
| problems | you used the term "cultural marxism" and philipp helpfully provided context on that term for those of us not familiar | 22:44:32 |
| problems | i don't know how you expect us to discuss a term we don't understand | 22:45:26 |
| ryblade | it was factually incorrect and biased from the first line, if you can see it as anything but an indictment of my views, please go ahead. i'll read it when i come back, i have to log out now | 22:46:13 |
| problems | you're gonna have to provide a better explanation of what you mean, if you want to contradict our sources | 22:46:41 |
| ryblade | * it was factually incorrect and biased from the first line, if you can view linking that article in response to my concerns as anything but a strategic indictment of my entire character, please go ahead. i'll read it when i come back, i have to log out now | 22:46:49 |
| problems | don't expect us to discuss something without understanding what you mean by bringing it up | 22:47:13 |
| ryblade | moving the goalpost. posting the link was an indictment of my character. prove me wrong. i'm out. | 22:49:17 |
| problems | bye. | 22:49:27 |

| @piegames:matrix.org | Came across this yesterday and strongly recommend it to anyone: https://www.lesswrong.com/s/NHXY86jBahi968uW4/p/4xKeNKFXFB458f5N8
There have been quite a lot of arguments of this kind around RFC 98. The post also touches on people changing the definition of some emotionally loaded terms, which also happened a few times in this room. | 11:17:32 |
 @zimbatm:numtide.com | The 2014 version of the Cultural Marxism wikipedia article was in my twitter feed today. The difference in content and tone is quite striking: https://archive.ph/YzkIS | 19:27:53 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | (it's not really relevant to moderation though, I was just surprised by the difference) | 19:29:26 |

| Irenes | I mean, it's sort of relevant, in that it's specifically the result of an eternal fight over who gets to decide what counts as "neutral" | 10:07:58 |
| Irenes | sorry, that's pretty cynical of me I know | 10:08:17 |
