Intentionally misunderstanding what I said at best, defending propaganda from genocidal authoritarians at worst.

I don’t care about the content of what you are talking about. The community rules say to be respectful of others. And you aren’t. I asked you to stop but you want to argue.

I don't think shills are people on here in the same way genuine users are, I stand by that. They're representing authoritarian governments, not themselves.

If you want people to be respectful of others, how about addressing shills who are defending the Kremlin's genocide in Ukraine? It would be respectful to Ukrainians to acknowledge all of their suffering and close the door on propaganda from their oppressors.

Implying that those who disagree with you are subhuman is right out of the fascism playbook and it's definitely not being respectful of others. You can hold that opinion and you can even broadcast it widely on the internet. The rules in this community says to be respectful of others and that by it's very definition is not. I'm not interested in arguing further, and I'm definitely not interesting in talking geopolitics with you. I want you to be respectful of others and if you can't, I'll remove the content and ban you from the community. If others are not being respectful, report them and I'll review that too.

I'm not saying that and you know it. Why use a straw man argument instead of addressing what I said?
