It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
You all have literally learned psychology from youtube and tiktok, that's where all the resources in /c/neurodiverse@hexbear.net lead
This is not a dishonest debating tactic and you are defending the idea that people with inhibition problems that threaten others need accomodations in the form of never being called out
Imagine we stopped using "mad" because some people have anger issues.
Imagine we stopped using "nonce" because, some people are pediphiles.
Imagine we stopped using "narcissist" because some people are narcissists.
Doesn't make any sense. They're pejorative for a reason. These are abusive tendencies towards others.
I'd like you to do better too. Thank you so much for engaging in good faith Comrade™️
How does not calling out negative behaviors help people who are themselves trying to limit them
I think the issue here is that Magicker is medicalizing bad behavior. They're not saying someone behaved badly, they're saying someone has a medical condition that makes them inherently evil and untrustworthy. You can say someone is being selfish, or lying, or being unreasonable, or whatever, without diagnosing them.
totes fair, i was thinking it through myself and trying to explain it is one of the ways I do that. i had to go hunting around to find that the term has always been medical.
OP is deliberately misrepresenting what's going on haha, whatever it's not important. You have a good one
Oh don't worry about me sweetums
