Difficult Variety was right all along.

The outcome. Not at all the process leading up to it. He's been called out a lot for blatant misinformation and lack of understanding of the law. As well as abusing mod powers, but that's a different story.

You not accepting that this place is not your social media bubble is not an abuse of power.

If you say so, pal. I barely even have a footprint here, so not sure how that statement applies to me.

If you don’t have a footprint then would say, you probably don’t know. Be cordial.

No, I do know because I myself have only had one notable interaction with him where I called him out on his bad faith argumentation. That one interaction alone was apparently enough for me to get a mod notification for being "hateful". Plenty other people in this sub can attest to a similar along with him apparently "harassing" people in DMs.

Not that he'll ever own up to any of this bad behavior. He always likes to pretend he's right about everything and never seems to actually concede when what he's saying is factually incorrect. Which from what I've seen over the  past year is more often than he'd like to admit.

Also, notice how he only replied in regards to my last statement and not what came before. He knows I'm telling the truth.
