I think most of them would last this long if they weren't banned fairly quickly. But this guy keeps screaming to be banned over an over, so it's funny to just let them stew in their own impotent temper tantrum.

I honestly cannot get my head around it. I have never argued with someone consecutively for more than like fifteen minutes, not even about Gaza. Meanwhile this guy has been going for hours just hitting refresh. If you google "terminally online," this guy's picture pops up.

I think the most remarkable thing about this one is their insistence that they're "done arguing with the red fash tankie scum" and just not committing at all. It's just bizarre. I responded to his comment, and I was certain he would see and read it eventually since they sees to be the kind of person who can't help themselves. But literally within minutes they read it and responded. I couldn't believe it.

I got tested for ADHD a while back, and the shrink administered a very basic impulse exam to me, where if the dot flashed below the line, you didn't click, and if it flashed above, you clicked. This guy would click without a flash. They would just mash the button, I'm sure. It is so funny.

Yeah, I think it is just impulsive. They don't seem to be trying to save face or reframe their argument, I've seen no moving of the goalposts with this one, literally just saying that they are better than the evil tankies for refusing to read anything they say.

They either have 0 self-awareness and honestly think it's a slam-dunk argument to both call people an echo-chamber and refuse to read anything that contradicts their own viewpoint, or maybe,

They might be doing this on purpose. I think they're fishing for a ban, that's why they're especially obnoxious, they're trying to get a ban so they can go back to lemmy.me or whatever and talk about how the evil tankies banned them for "disagreeing with them." I'm guessing they want to be congratulated by like minded bootlickers for their matyrdom.

That could very well be the case. Regardless, like comrade Catradora said, they just need to climb down from the cross. It's clearly not working if that's what they're after.
