My argument is that you first appear to be a nuetral reporter when, in reality, you are a biased participant.
Also… This is night 1 of me thinking about this.
There won’t be a night 2.
This is night 80 for you.
Don’t project.
So, the facts are somehow not facts because of the source they came from?
You’re insane.
No. The facts are not facts because they’re opinions. You present your “facts” through the lens of a neutral party, and you are clearly anything but neutral.
You make a claim hoping to get the hivemind on your side. You dump screenshots showing your embarrassing behavior and count on the fact that 60+ people won’t even stop to verify or form their own opinion.
The sad part is that you’re right. You can say anything and if it aligns with their preconceived narrative, they’ll upvote and keep scrolling.
Which is exactly why you bury the lead, because if you said outright from the beginning that it was against you, well then people would be alerted to your inherent bias and actually form their own opinions.
The facts are presented as neutral because they exist and are neutral.
The moderator deleted messages to hide their negative response, including messages that broke no rules citing a non-existent rule for the reason. They found out that the mod logs are public after they were called out for misusing their moderator powers by deleting messages that broke no rules. Then immediately deleted their account and complained about it on mastodon, very clearly stating that their issue was that mod logs are public.
If you think that those facts somehow change because of the context, then that’s on you. You’re just flat wrong.
Also it’s “bury the lede” 🙂
