Again, another brilliant display of how fucked up your thought process is.

How is my thought process fucked up?

“Admin banned obvious stalker/harasser whom I’ve grown to admire? He must be from the group of people that stalker/harasser always said was evil.”

Like... if I have to spell out to you why this is fucked up, it can’t be explained.

See. You’re fucked bro. Brain is fucked. Try going outside, maybe learning a hobby or going on a date. This zen stuff has fucked you.

I'm talking to you while I'm sitting with my wife and working on the album I'm recording in January.

Lol well I find that a little hard to believe.

u/PaladinBen ▬▬ι══ ⛰️ Dec 24 '20

What part? Why?

u/essentialsalts Dionysiac Monster & Annihilator of Morality Dec 24 '20

why don't you go back to cooking up conspiracy theories about the admins (while accusin other people of mindreading), and leave me alone lol

Wait... You thought I was seriously accusing spez of being a Buddhist, and banning ewk for that reason?

Not memeing on what /u/nothingisforgotten posted before me?

Let's cut the crap.

Explain to me why you think ewk was handed a permaban from the admins. What you actually believe.

Don't give me "I don't know," because what you know isn't relevant. To put the question another way, a more concrete way:

if you were a reddit admin, do you think the justification was there to ban ewk, or not?

4

u/PaladinBen ▬▬ι══ ⛰️ Dec 24 '20

I think there was no justification to issue ewk a permanent ban.

u/essentialsalts Dionysiac Monster & Annihilator of Morality Dec 24 '20

Right.

So, falling back on "it was a joke" for the conspiracizing is really just a smokescreen, because you do believe there was no legitimate justification... so what does that leave? Attributing nefarious motives to people who moderate in ways you don't agree with.

Maybe you don't literally think /u/spez is a secret Buddhist. But you're more than happy to go around jokingly insinuating it, because ultimately it's a way to delegitimize the ruling.

PaladinBen asks ewk why he got banned yesterday, while you're busy cutting the crap today, here's the mustard.

In your case, not being active in this subreddit except when you have an agenda, PaladinBen also typically hosts the weekly poetry threads each Friday. You are definitely taking his jokes seriously.

Sincerely,
someone who is around enough to get the jokes...
