    Well that’s a wonderful way to make sure your preconceived notions can never be altered by evidence.

      Give proven trolls endless chances, says infuriating dingus. Surely recognizing someone’s an asshole based on how they act over and over and over is the same thing as prejudice.

      You’re not allowed to have an opinion unless you can show me receipts, right now.

        I’m not a troll, anyone can go through my post and comment history and tell that I put a serious effort into learning and studying theory, discussing it with others, and in recent months have begun doing actual org work IRL (though limited for now). I’m often called a troll as ad hominem meant to discredit anything I say, but that’s just not accurate. It’s just easy to reduce me to a troll to justify not actually listening to what I say, I suppose.

            Yea, it’s odd, but figured I’d respond to their claims anyways for others to see. Maybe they don’t want to feel “dogpiled on” even if they can’t see? Plus I think I’m the only one that actually responded anyways out of that list, and the Yogthos mention looks broken anyways.

                Yea, there are a few users that have permanent hatred for me and will mention me out of the blue like that as someone they specifically hate, terminally online behavior IMO but whatever.

                  I disagree with you at times due to the fact you support more Marxist/Leninist/Maoist thought, but yeah it’s terminally online behavior.

                  Happens to UniversalMonk too.

                    I’m very curious about these disagreements you’ve had. Can you share those? Sounds like an interesting read

                    Oh I’m aware you disagree with me, I’m more referring to users like the MeanwhileOnGrad regulars that stalk my profile for screengrabs devoid of context. There are a few on dbzer0, but most are on Lemmy.world or sh.itjust.works. I’m normally pretty chill with anarchists unless they start attacking me or socialist countries on what I consider a false basis, outside of that I’m happy to work with anarchists or just meme and shitpost with them.

                    Technical correction on terms, but I am a Marxist-Leninist. Marxism-Leninism-Maoism is more used by groups like The Shining Path of Peru, terrorists that uphold Gonzalo and Pol Pot. Maoists are similar but usually disavow Gonzalo, and are most significant in the Naxalites in India, who I critique theoretically but are worthy of support generally. I uphold Mao as a Marxist-Leninist, as all MLs do, but don’t agree with the universality of concepts like protracted people’s war.

                    Additionally, Maoists and MLMs tend to see Actually Existing Socialism as false, basically anything post-Stalin and post-Mao, seeing countries even like Cuba as betrayers of socialism. I disagree, of course.

                    Tiny bit of term correction! You don’t have to do any study or anything on that, though, just wanted to clear stuff up incase someone thought I was a Gonzaloist based on your comment.
