    For the same reason, apparently, that it is so hard for you to engage without making personal attacks. The difference is that if I see you do it again, you’ll be banned.

      Listen, I will admit. I have been making personal attacks, that’s true. But only because it seems no one here is able to engage critically with any of the points without having to grandstand or divert. Here is a sample of a Lemmy conversation:

      User 1: did you know about A or B?

      User 2: I disagree with C

      User 1: we are talking about A and B

      User 2: yeah, but C is really bad.

      User 1: that’s not what we’re talking about…

      Over. And over. And over.
