Complimenting a username is nice, but you don't have to throw in a disclaimer about political alignment. I don't think any of your hexbear friends, if they're reasonable, would call you a lib because you complimented the username of a guy whose instance is populated by libs.

I didn't "disclaim" anything, I accurately stated something about the instancw being full of liberalism and then Miles O Liberalism immediately went off about "dictator states" like a good lib would

Well to be fair, that wasn't until 6 hours after my comment and 9 hours after yours, so neither of us could have known for sure.

The political alignment is entirely relevant to Miles O'Brien.
