    If it “Takes one to know one”, then you are not merely affirming that I’m vile and cretinous, you are also necessarily affirming that my recognition of the .ml admins as vile and cretinous is correct by regarding my qualities as necessarily granting me insight as to whether or not the admins share said qualities.

    I understand that might be too complex for you to parse on short notice, considering your previous difficulty with discerning the meaning of plainly stated reasons in the form of the written word regarding the 196 issue, but I’m sure that if you sit and ponder it for a few hours, it might eventually click.

      if so then it surely takes one to know one

      I draw the line at ableist insult, but if you want to insult people like that I’m just going to assume you’re doing so from a position of experience.

      I can see why you have such a hard time with people offering real-world advice like ‘dont try to force others people to change their opinions’

        If it’s an ableist insult, like you claim, wouldn’t that mean you’re insulting me on ableist terms?

          hardly, I’m just pointing out that you’re clearly speaking as the most authoritative person on the subject

            But your claim of my authority is that I am cretinous, which is an ableist insult according to you.

            It seems it takes very little to get you to whip out the ableist insults. That’s pretty disgusting, ngl.

              I believe it was you who started calling people cretins, also I didn’t even call you anything, just observed that you are supreme authority on the matter

                I believe it was you who started,

                So if someone uses what you regard as an ableist insult, you think it’s appropriate to use that same ableist insult against them? Wow. I’d hate to hear your opinions on the r-word.

                also I didn’t even call you anything, just observed that you are supreme authority on the matter

                Then we’re in agreement that the .ml admins are cretinous, since I’m the supreme authority on the matter. Thank you for affirming my opinion, strange that you would go through all this trouble just to agree with me though. :)

                  if someone is running around calling people ableist slurs, it says more about them than anyone they’re defaming

                    I agree, which is why it’s horrific that you’re calling me cretinous, when, by your own admission, you see it as an ableist slur. Very sad, even.
