Grow up, kids.
No, you.
If we're anarchists this is how it should be. Either all of us are mods or none of us are, preferably the latter.
You didn't answer my question. Do you think all conspiracy theories are wrong? You can clearly see the astronauts dangling from wires like they do in movies like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. If you speed it up it just looks like some guy jumping normally on planet Earth with a wire connecting him to some kind of trellis. You have to understand that the moonwalk is the most relevant event in human history, and NASA just announced that they erased the tapes. All of them.
I think that pretty much says it all. You can drop the word "theory". It was a conspiracy, and it worked. Look at America now compared to Russia.

This guy is either a moron or a troll and shouldn't be a mod
Fuck you. Pardon me for being realistic about the affairs of an illegitimate state. You'd think it'd be more common here.
You'd better hide, Buzz Aldrin is coming and man he looks pissed.
I'm not worried about that old alcoholic kook. You think my beliefs are out there... he thinks there's a monolith on Phobos.
I was demodded for not being an anarchist (according to him) but he also had this to say:
"I'm saying that what you're advocating as "communitarian socialism contra anarchism" is actually just anarchism explained a different way." - joeldavis
I really don't care about being a mod, though there's no reason I shouldn't be. I just don't think he should be one if he's going to be persecuting anybody who disagrees with him.
not being an anarchist (according to him)
I'm not wanting to have anything to do with the moderator discussion, but it was you who said:
Are you one of those new "statism-anarchists"?
Yes, I'm a statist anarchist.
That is awesome cometparty. I sincerely hope you aren't joking, because an example of someone claiming to be both a statist and an anarchist is worth its weight in internet gold.
Even some of the most hardcore anti-statist capitalists weren't opposed to my definition of a state when explained to them. I'm sure you wouldn't be either. Try not to look at everything so superficially and be less quick to judge.
Apparently joeldavis agrees. Again, I quote: "...what you're advocating as "communitarian socialism contra anarchism" is actually just anarchism explained a different way."
That is rich because ...
HE is not an anarchist either. joeldavis is a collectivist communist.
That is rich because ...
HE is not an anarchist either. ozmonster is a capitalist apologist.
I guess it's just a witch hunt now, isn't it?
Well I think that its a valid point.
I'm pretty sure he's a mutualist.
You are a bunch of babies. This is why anarchy will be nothing more than a dream.
Well what the fuck are you here for?
Are you proud of this self.post still, 18 hours later?
Yes.
troll threshold reached.
I have never weighed in on this whole Moderator argument but I guess I should considering I am one, not sure how I became one but I did and that's fine by me. I've never had any problems with joeldavis, all of the things that he posts have been relevant to the subreddit. He plays a pretty active role in discussions and activities that the subreddit might want to do and from what I have seen, though I have not taken an official tally, he is one of the top contributes to this subbreddit with dbzer0 and Skobrin.
Also, from what I have seen, he is not quick to be angry and disrespectful in his discussions, keeping the discussion on an intelligent level rather than reducing it to name calling, which is far to rare a quality amongst people that discus issues on the internet. I don't know him in the world outside the internet, and I have not read ALL of the comments and submissions that he has posted. But from what I have seen he is one of the most active people on this subreddit and I hope that you can resolve your problem with him.
I'm up and down, but I've been a pretty big contributor here. He's not who you think he is.
