- Mod of !anarchism@slrpnk.net posts a great Greta Thunberg quote, but then tries to use it to justify not voting in the upcoming US election
- Multiple people point out that’s very clearly not what she meant

Using your mod powers to decide who is allowed and not allowed to speak is not very anarchist of you, @mambabasa@slrpnk.net
Oh so you’re an imperialist apologist. Opinion discarded.
NOPE
I’m willing to understand the operating paradigm of other people. This is the modus operandi of the US. They have motivations that they SHOULD dissuade themselves from being influenced by, but that doesn’t make a difference in how the world currently is, or what currently motivates them.
You can conflate in your head what is and what should be, but that just frustrates real attempts to making the world closer to what it should be.
This reductionism on your part is disrespectful.
While I agree that the sentence is imperialist apologia, I disagree with this approach. There’s something to be learned from everything, especially when there’s much mroe than what you’re focusing on.
