Meanwhile, incumbent Maia Sandu was closer to a second term in office, after partial results in the country’s presidential election gave her a small lead over her main rival.

    Is saying someone is being pedantic uncivil? I have definitely been called worse by many of the people I’ve engaged with on 1984.world

      Yes. Yes it is.

      Hopefully you will also not need someone to explain to you what ‘pejorative’ means.

          First of all, I do not ban people for a single comment that violates our civility rules. Neither would any other moderator in this community and I resent that implication.

          Secondly, I have absolutely deleted such comments before when they are reported. I do not have the ability to see every single comment in the entire community in real time. That is not a superpower I possess.

          Thirdly, if someone calls you that, report it and if I’m the mod who sees it, I will delete it like every other time.

          Please do respond to this by lying or “not” suggesting I’m a bot again or whatever. I’m guessing I won’t get a thank you.

              Sorry, we bots don’t really understand how they/them isn’t a universal pronoun. No one programmed us on that yet.

                  It’s amazing how many things you’ve accused me of today that you’re guilty of yourself.

                  Shall I produce from modlogs how many times you’ve been banned from communities for incivility? Because I can.

                    I’m happy to get banned for incivility, but pointing out that you’re fixing on minor details to take me into conversational cul de sacs isn’t an insult.

                    Calling someone what they don’t want to be called is insulting, I stand by my hotheaded comments considering how often I get he/himmed on here
