On one hand, I agree. On the other hand, that means…

The neighbor:

Do you insult everyone you disagree with?

Just the idiots.

if so your chronic internet usage makes perfect sense.

That’s quite an ableist interpretation.

I have trouble letting arguments go until they’ve no life left in them. Like leaving a painting on the wall slightly crooked.

Me, personally? Nothing. Prefer to go without AI.

AI is fantastic.

It’s what it’s being used for that fucking sucks.

I love reading about shit like “LLMs help scientists develop new pattern-seeking behaviors and theories” and shit. Fucking hate when I see AI art or places trying to ‘streamline’ their processes with half-assed AI assistance.

I said, quite openly, that I don’t find cretin an ableist insult. You said, quite openly, that you feel cretin is an ableist insult.

Sorry that you can’t live up to your own standards? I’d say you should lower them, but I doubt you could live up to them then either.

I gotta say this is an impressive attempt to darvo this

So you can’t explain what ‘one’ means without admitting that you meant ‘cretin’ or ‘cretinous’, a term that you interpret as ableist.

Sorry that you’re an ableist. It’s pretty disgusting.

‘If everywhere you go smells like shit, check your shoes’ was essentially my response,

Not even close, lmao. But I don’t expect much from disingenuous cretins. :)

yeah, I’m just deferring to your expert knowledge that you’ve demonstrated, what’s the issue?

if so then it surely takes one to know one

Would you like to explain what ‘one’ is here? Or are you trying to wiggle out of the fact that you are, by your own standards, a disgusting ableist?

citation needed, I just observed that you seem to be the foremost expert on the subject matter based on how liberally you use the term for other people

This you?

if so then it surely takes one to know one

if someone is running around calling people ableist slurs, it says more about them than anyone they’re defaming

I agree, which is why it’s horrific that you’re calling me cretinous, when, by your own admission, you see it as an ableist slur. Very sad, even.

I believe it was you who started,

So if someone uses what you regard as an ableist insult, you think it’s appropriate to use that same ableist insult against them? Wow. I’d hate to hear your opinions on the r-word.

also I didn’t even call you anything, just observed that you are supreme authority on the matter

Then we’re in agreement that the .ml admins are cretinous, since I’m the supreme authority on the matter. Thank you for affirming my opinion, strange that you would go through all this trouble just to agree with me though. :)

hardly, I’m just pointing out that you’re clearly speaking as the most authoritative person on the subject

But your claim of my authority is that I am cretinous, which is an ableist insult according to you.

It seems it takes very little to get you to whip out the ableist insults. That’s pretty disgusting, ngl.

I draw the line at ableist insult, but if you want to insult people like that I’m just going to assume you’re doing so from a position of experience.

If it’s an ableist insult, like you claim, wouldn’t that mean you’re insulting me on ableist terms?

If it “Takes one to know one”, then you are not merely affirming that I’m vile and cretinous, you are also necessarily affirming that my recognition of the .ml admins as vile and cretinous is correct by regarding my qualities as necessarily granting me insight as to whether or not the admins share said qualities.

I understand that might be too complex for you to parse on short notice, considering your previous difficulty with discerning the meaning of plainly stated reasons in the form of the written word regarding the 196 issue, but I’m sure that if you sit and ponder it for a few hours, it might eventually click.

you’re really not doing much to disprove my original point tbh

Your original point showing that you know nothing about the 196 split and that you baselessly spread slander about 196 not respecting neopronouns?

That original point is already long disproven.

if so then it surely takes one to know one

So we’re in agreement that the .ml admins are vile and cretinous. :)

we already established if you were calling them from Crete it would be Cretans,

Correct, which is why your objection was baseless.

you’re just insulting them and now me.

I never denied insulting them. The .ml admins are absolutely vile and cretinous.

you called them ‘cretins’ which is an ableist insult, and I said I don’t think they’re from crete

Implying that being from Crete is a disability, which it is not.

maybe try insulting people less?

Maybe try being less cretinous.
