got an issue with me?

It wasn't directly related to the argument and self-destruction, so I didn't include it, but I don't really think he really had an issue with you specifically. There was a lot of escalation between that original comment and the end.

One of your messages was reported, and he said "Basically I think frauddog's heart is in the right place", and "But honestly what would the ideal phrasing be?" as to why it wasn't really worth getting you to change your language. But that was mostly about AGAB, the pronoun thing was half a message out of several.

Purple's response about the pronoun thing was about 20 hours after, and the rest of the argument was largely removed from the context of the original report.

I'm not exactly trying to defend green, but I also don't want to accidentally slander him by leaving stuff out.

I DON'T TRUST THE MEN ON THIS SITE

Completely valid opinion, totally agree.

Damn your right. I'll fix that.

edit: Next time I ever have to do something like this, I should write something to blank out names automatically.

no, I don't think so.

Basically PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS got into an argument on the modchat, and while it started off civil, it didn't really end that way. PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS might be unbanned if they self-crit, is generally what I'm hearing.

I've got some screenshots from the mod chat that basically show the whole situation, but I can't exactly get consent from the parties involved, so I'm redacting their names.

The modchat was discussing a comment that was reported, and AGAB terminology in general.

Around 20-30 messages went by, largely not touching on the issue of "he/hims", then:

And then there were about another ten messages, all talking about the messages screenshot-ted, but not really relevant to the argument. And then a reply:

From now on it's mostly just these two.

They both agree to disagree. But then they keep going.

The argument starts to go off the rails here, especially with those last two replies:

Another mod says this isn't a constructive argument. They don't seem to get a reply.

At this point other mods and admins start to step in, saying green is "basically concern trolling", and "You're literally arguing semantics.". It is at this point that purple leaves the mod chat. Green basically continues the argument with them for another few messages.

Yet more mods arrive, and agree that green was concern trolling, and ask for green to apologize. They refuse, saying:

Other mods say some more things.

Green does not like the things the other mods say.

At this point Green leaves the mod chat, and the remaining mods talk about what is to be done. Purple is going to be taking a relatively long break, and foucault got de-modded+perma'd. It might be changed to a temp ban so they can self-crit, but mods aren't exactly hopeful that'll happen.

One mod described this as "two users...self-destructing in one day". Other mods say that while Green's argument was technically correct, they still deserved the ban, especially considering previous history.

I left out some stuff, and tried to make it so you couldn't tell who was who, but it's kinda obvious.

Think of all this what you will, I didn't really get involved, and only heard about it after it all went down.

It's great if you don't already know their pronouns, but if you know their pronouns it's probably better to use those.

And floss too. If it's the evening, that's a perfect time to do it. If it's the morning, great time as well. Middle of the day? You've probably had food, brush them teeth. If you've recently (but not immediately after, wait a bit, drink some water) eaten, that's a perfect time to brush. Especially if you've recently had something sugary (avoid sugary stuff, also like I said not too recently).

And if you can, and haven't recently, see a dentist.

Your teeth are precious, and hard to replace. Lack of proper dental care can in many ways amount to a tax on the poor, where a lack of proper preventative care can turn mouths into an unaffordably fixable mess. Get people in your community to take care of their teeth too.

There's really only a few situations where you shouldn't be brushing your teeth right now: you vomited recently (brushing after vomiting can degrade the protective coating on your teeth), or you brushed recently.

Not having the equipment for it on you is only an excuse this once, carrying that stuff with you is a good idea. You eat and drink throughout the day, so you should brush and floss throughout the day. And who knows when you'll need to be presentable? You don't want to barrage your comrades, friends, partners, or "path to promotion" (your bosses) with bad breath.

SUD posting? (hexbear.net)

Substance User Disorder (drug addiction, basically) is in the DSM. It has "atypical patterns of thought or behavior". So talking about it fits here, right? What should go in c/drugs and what should go here?

Anyways, I'm making this post in part because I've been taking longer breaks from meth. Four days between the last time I used and now (I am currently high, it definitely potentiates my posting powers). Maybe I'll actually commit next break. Oh yeah, and tapering benzos is going quite well. It's been 7 weeks, and I'm down to close to a third of my original dosage. The taper schedules I've seen seem to show I should wait a while before lowering my dosage again. SMART and such have been great in terms of motivation, but a lot of the details have been DIY. Getting my GP or an actual doctor involved would be cool, but is also probably a terrible idea in practice (and I've been doing fine so far).

idk, I just don't see much posting about it here, but then again it's really only a handful of Hexbears that post about it in general. also, just posting for the heck of posting.

It looks like they did a true tit-for-tat, blowing up a target with a missile (or a planted explosive). Reporting is early, so it's hard to tell, just like with the Ismael Haniyeh situation.

The photo is from Tel Aviv (and off Facebook, lol), it seems to show the response. Haven't seen any photos of the explosion itself yet, but I'm sure those will be coming out shortly.

It could have also been some other group, but that seems unlikely.

Lots of good stuff in their, really reminds me of badempanadas scuffle with Kurzgesgat. Also reminds me of our criticism of "bazinga brain" people.

I actually found this on r/Anarcho_Capitalism, where they were talking about how Assad didn't do the chemical attacks. Quite strange, honestly.
