    What’s ‘authoritarian behaviour’ on a message forum? The only way to do that is by banning people for saying things you don’t like or for any other reason.

    Personally, I think that’s a fine use of authority when it’s censoring reactionaries reactionarying. But then, I’m not a mod with that sort of power threatening to ban people for agreeing that I should use my power to ban others for threatening to use my power to ban them.

    Would it be authoritarian behaviour to ask for or demand a change of rules to say that people shouldn’t be banned for exhibiting authoritarian behaviour? Is this the type of confusion that libs live with on a daily basis? Now I can empathize. The poor fuckers.
