    I don’t have time right now, but as a rule of thumb, calling other people children just because they collectively disagree with you doesn’t seem like the best way to operate either.

    There can be antagonism between instances, that’s inherent to the nature of the platform, pretending it’s not the case is probably missing an important part of that platform.

      I didn’t call them children because they disagreed with me. Plenty of people disagree with me, it comes with the territory of me being an opinionated loudmouth, and honestly it rarely bothers me.

      I called them children because they were bullying and banning a trans person when she tried to disagree with their handling of trans issues, while crying about “abuse” if people dared to give their friends downvotes, among other similar behavior.

      Citation to remind about specifics if you want it
