I have no idea if you are a shill or a genuine person. But, there are some behaviors that are bad things to do regardless of which you are:

Recasting your opponents’ views as other ones that make less sense and are easier to argue against, consistently, as a way of muddling the discourse, instead of being honest about what you’re saying and what you are disagreeing with and why, and just letting your point of view speak for itself whether or not I personally would agree with it

Look at their user name.

Recasting your opponents’ views as other ones that make less sense and are easier to argue against, consistently, as a way of muddling the discourse, instead of being honest about what you’re saying and what you are disagreeing with and why, and just letting your point of view speak for itself whether or not I personally would agree with it Consistently posting a drumbeat of memes in support of your viewpoint (within that same dishonest framing)

I’m reflecting the bad-faith recasting I see in some other memes here, no more no less. I’m happy peacefully existing without creating any memes at all, but when I see a misrepresentation of my view in a dumb meme by a user that I’ll leave nameless (they can’t defend themselves here right now anyway), I feel an urgent need to lob that turd back at them. I think .world has successfully sheltered themselves from a world-view that challenges a particular self-image, a world-view I happen to share, and I feel an honest need to make my existence known.

At this point I don’t care what the response is, but if my silly memes are enough to warrant suspicion of being a troll then fuck it. I find the very serious democratic pandering around here childish, so i’ll continue matching it with my own childish representations.

But the message you’re sending doesn’t match the outcome you say you want. I think that’s why you are getting these maybe unfair accusations.

At this point I simply do not care. If the only thing that comes out of these memes is a string of activity in the modlog I’d consider that to be a point well-made.
