Sealioning is talked about far more often than it actually happens, because people often perceive both fundamental disagreement and lack of knowledge about something that they are extremely familiar with as bad faith.
Sea lioning is like gaslighting. Very useful concept, extremely overused as an accusation by people who are mad about something.
Did you see their response I salvaged? They deleted it like lots of their other comments that arenmt otherwise removed by moderator because its unhinged
I get that but this person was not answering any real thing, they were mercilessly interrogating on non-isuses like [paraphrased] “I noticed you took down something that even had a SPELLING ERROR?!?”, a lot about the occasionally mispelled word or some other mechanical issue to the detriment of any of the substantive matters in the comments
Almost all of it or a great deal of itwas
Removed by moderator(s). I bet he’ll take me to task for screwing up the removed quotation if thats not the verbatimDeleted by wildginger (saved by me ;)
oh my god, did you make a whole post to vague blog about me?
Thats actually genuinely very adorable
For the passers by, Im a “sea lion” because I dont agree with cheese’s belief that the apollo dev is obligated to make their work open source.
And, I guess, they dont like how much I swear? Didnt think a few fucks was a big deal between adults, guess I was wrong? I dunno, this is hilarious harassment tho
This comment of mine is still up. I can see it on this post, just below.
Did you block me, and forget you blocked me?
Jesus christ this dudes unhinged, how long are you going to be running this failed hate train
This is also a misrepresentation of my position. My position is basically that I get Christian was upset about Voyager (based on his terse comments on the subject) but that Voyager was perfectly acceptable use and even if thats not 100% accurate, the genie’s out of the bottle and I felt the gatekeeping was a little strange.
Like people were arguing as if they were the judge of the never-gonna-happen lawsuit Christian should seemingly file and ruling that he was gonna have to put a pin in Voyager.
I react strongly to people acting like Voyager needs and should need their go-ahead before it proceeded to build the app.
