my favorite bad faith rhetorical strategy is the morally grand shaggy dog story to lure you in that ends with the actual take, such as tonight's "you should be wary of unvetted blocklists" which eventually turned into "and that's why we should rehabilitate an infamous fed rapist abuser".

“Anyway that’s why women shouldn’t have rights”
so shame!!! shame on you for gatimg my games!!!!!!!
i am so tired
but it is the FOURTH 🙃🙃🙃
but i have been very online for a while and have very bad luck, it turns out
now i’m in a discord with someone else who i don’t trust precisely because she said some things that revealed association
(LB is scum, lest anyone misinterpret)
And honestly who the hell cares if someone is on the "wrong" block list for them. It doesn't matter, it's not worth the effort of correcting it when that person is a serial rapist fed informer.
Like, yeah, it's a plague across the site but it's super sus when you then identify a single user and a single list as *the problem*
And that's before the user your defending is a known abuser
yes.
"lb is on a blocklist."
yes.
"therefore, having lb blocked is abusive"
n...no?
like especially burying the lede she was friends with her for a DECADE?
i've been posting on bsky for 2 months, 1 month in i found out that i had been put on 2 random blocklists by people i never interacted with
turns out one of them was LB's personal block list lolol
like girl, the person u r defending adds randoms to blists too
Believe victims, don't become one yourself.
anyway that's why Dylan Klebold did nothing wrong
