I can’t believe I have to explain I would not be calling them a dummy directly.
If that's not obvious to you, fine, you can disagree with me. Just don't do it.

And you can still respond to those people by pointing out the flaws in their views.

So since it’s ok to attack groups on this site, the way people attack transgender people, and you’re fine with that, it must be ok to attack moderators as a group.If I said moderators are all a bunch of losers who have nothing better to do with their lives and they are thrilled to have this little pathetic power to enforce rules for some teeny tiny chat room and that makes them feel important, that would be fine, right? Because that’s not a personal attack, directly or indirectly, right?
*shrug* I'm not looking for your endorsement.
Not the worst thing I've heard said about me
So now you are saying you are all powerful, you can do what you want, and you don’t care if people think you are doing a terrible job. That’s great.
That's an... interesting interpretation. What I'm saying is that working as a mod is a generally thankless job and that I'm going to get hate for it regardless of what I do. If I didn't learn to shrug it off, then I would have left the role a long time ago and never looked back. If your goal as a moderator is to make sure everyone is satisfied with what you're doing, then you're doing it wrong.
I know I could be doing better. That's part of why I'm doing this: to ensure that we have a more consistent form of enforcement. Your response to that is to argue that we should also be enforcing in other places, which doesn't really change the point of my initial post. I think there's room to discuss how moderation could better enforce other existing aspects of the CoC or add to the CoC in ways that are beneficial for the site, but that doesn't really change whether we should allow personal attacks or harassment. We can both recognize that those are a problem and aim to do a better job in other areas while we're at it.
Well unless you became a moderator yesterday, it appears you haven’t done one bit of moderating your entire time on this site.
See, it's a perspective like this that makes me wonder why I should consider what you're saying at all. If you honestly believe this to be true, then I guess I have nothing to glean from this conversation. Thanks for clarifying that.

I'm done with this conversation. Feel free to jab at me as much as you like, I've lost interest.
I'll make a general post about it later today,I'm done with this conversation. I've lost interest.
