At first I wasn't going to upvote but I have to give props for kicking off a struggle session over the Romanovs
Tune in next week for the Hexbear pity parade for veterans
Again??
It’s about time for that, don’t you think?
I am so tired
I don't get people that say they miss pre-federation, because these were the pre-federation vibes to me. People willfully misinterpreting another user, assuming the worst and digging their heels in, in order to score a dunk on a fellow leftist. There's no libs in this thread and we're still fighting.
In these situations in my experience it helps a lot to use "I statement" rather than "you". So instead of saying "you're reducing my argument to saying 'killing kids is good'" then saying "I feel frustrated, because my argument has been reduced to that of 'killings kids is good'". It's basic I know, but it does a lot for keeping hostility low.
Would you look at the time?
