    When someone is plainly disconnected from evidence and reality and digging into a “it’s not me it’s literally everyone else gaslighting me and attacking me and persecuting me” mentality there’s really not much other explanation

        I’ll be real, I just don’t like Pluto and took the opportunity of them being a fucking weirdo to dunk on them. It makes a lot of sense why he’s always complaining about the “Nazbols” taking over hexbear and taking over his org and taking over the internet, I will just say that much

          The only issue was the ableism (using mental illness as a dunk or insult is ableism). I wish we had a word for paranoid that didn’t have those implications but we don’t.

            I was the one to bring up “paranoid” initially, because I don’t know what else to call it but “paranoia-jacketing”, when you say someone thinks they’re being gangstalked.

                that was in response to them saying it, i was quoting them. I guess I did say the word technically, but I didn’t bring it up

                it’s zed proclaimer, don’t know who this “z poster” is but its just an smear word like “tankie” or “nazbol”

                  I was wrong, went ahead and reapproved them because, in my personal understanding, fault would lie with the first to introduce the term. I’ve been a bit on edge with all the ableism lately and jumped the gun after checking the mod log and seeing “it still going”. Apologies.

          Yeah and I don’t mind that you dunked I think it was well deserved. I just dislike the ableism inherent in saying “oh I bet you’re being gangstalked too huh”. I think it’s shitty to use signs of mental diagnosis as dunks.
