I am not going to ban you unless you continue to violate the rules as clearly stated in the sidebar. All users have to abide by these rules, not just you. Insulting people is very much against them, so stop doing it if you wish to keep talking here.
For the same reason, apparently, that it is so hard for you to engage without making personal attacks. The difference is that if I see you do it again, you’ll be banned.
Listen, I will admit. I have been making personal attacks, that’s true. But only because it seems no one here is able to engage critically with any of the points without having to grandstand or divert. Here is a sample of a Lemmy conversation:

User 1: did you know about A or B?
User 2: I disagree with C
User 1: we are talking about A and B
User 2: yeah, but C is really bad.
User 1: that’s not what we’re talking about…
Over. And over. And over.
I don’t really care what your excuse for breaking the community rules is.
“They made me do it” is certainly not a valid excuse.
I suggest you stop poking the bear now.
You have patience beyond the legibility of my app…
My patience ran out and he’s been banned.
You had been merciful to a fault.
