counterpoint: you’re FREE to simply start your own instance and run it how you like? who are you to demand (or even to criticize) others for running an instance according to their own ethics and standards simply because you disagree, especially when you are free to run one by your own? do they not have the same freedom to do so as do you?
If I should be restricted to not criticize the instance then why are you criticizing me? I'm a smaller unit than the instances so according to you I weren't supposed to be able to be criticized.
how did I criticize you by asking you to explain your logic?
in what way is that true if you have the same ability to create your instance with your own rules and standards?
and you still haven’t answered my question: who are you to demand (or even to criticize) others for running an instance according to their own ethics and standards simply because you disagree, especially when you are free to run one by your own?
You talk like I can answer you before you've posted the text. Also, you saying I can't criticize an instance for their decisions for whatever reason is still quite of criticizing (despite making no sense but okay).
I’m not “talking like” anything, nor am I criticizing you— I simply asked you questions which you seem to be unable to or refusing to answer— and claiming to be incapable of comprehending.
You literally sent in the same message a question and said I'm refusing to answer your question, in the same message.
you’re blaming me because I pointed out that you refused to answer a question and asked you again? seriously?
by the way… who are you to demand (or even to criticize) others for running an instance according to their own ethics and standards simply because you disagree, especially when you are free to run one by your own?
You were not explaining a meaningless question so I couldn't answer so you needed another guy to explain what he thought you were saying so I could answer your question that you still doesn't wanna explain with your own words. Else you were trying to trick me into answering a question that couldn't be efficiently answered, you lack the capacity of explaining further or you dropped your text before thinking out of a emotional explosion.
Then who are you to criticize anyone? I don't believe you're god and every human has the same value so why should you be able to criticize others while others can't criticize anything?
I explained everything you asked me to. You intellectual failures are not my responsibility. You refusal to even acknowledge the questions I asked are nobody’s fault but your own. Accusing me of trickery? Just because you don’t comprehend the question? That’s just an excuse because you can’t answer a simple question of what gives you the right to hold others to standards you don’t feel you, yourself, should be held to. And when confronted with that, all you can do is make false accusation without evidence and hurl insults while blaming others for your shortcomings.
I haven’t criticized you for anything— what I have done if laid to the facts as you have presented yourself: and the evidence is in your comments.
Facing the consequences of your actions is not a state of victimhood.
Do you genuinely don't know what is criticizing someone about or is it just you don't want to admit you criticize people but don't want to allow them to criticize your ideals?
I just asked you questions and pointed out the facts. it’s not “criticism” simply because you find them inconvenient or because you don’t like them. also, I don’t recall expressing my ideals in this conversation: perhaps you could link to where I did that? or will you ignore that question, too?
That's the point, you expressed nothing and tried to pull the "you're wrong and here are the blank papers" card while you didn't even show why you disagree. If you summarize anything with content you said in the discussion you end up with nothing. Also, stop editing the comment to always say that I'm not responding, that's really annoying when I'm literally trying to respond to everything you say.
ignoring/denying/failing to comprehend what I’ve said isn’t the same as "expressed nothing”, and, as I’ve previously remarked, I am not responsible for your failures to comprehend.
also, I’m sure it’s very annoying to you that I keep pointing out how you’ve repeatedly failed to respond to several questions I’ve asked. why should I stop just because you find that fact inconvenient? facing the consequences of your actions is not a state of victimhood.
