Their belief is that Marxists are hypocritical for wanting public ownership of property and believing a government necessary for that, as they are of the belief that government and the state are the same for Marx, and rather than the "Administration of Things" that Engels speaks of, there would be a structure closer to Anarchism.

I'm aware they're at least somewhat disingenuous. I'm trying to get them to spell out their beliefs and assumptions despite that.

So you're saying if the admins ban me, they'd be giving me exactly what I want, and therefore they shouldn't?

I'm okay with you believing that. Even if you are choosing to reduce my entire personality to one event, weeks ago, which I'd mostly forgotten.

I'm not really saying much of anything beyond that you have a bone to pick with the mods, and that is the clearest explanation for why you made your original comment. I'm not trying to reduce you to anything, just draw on a similar situation from a few weeks ago.

The mods have never treated me unfairly, I have no problem with them.

Mods or admins, doesn't make too much of a difference, your issue I presume is with the people running Lemmy.ml.

I don't care that you have only a flimsy grasp of Marxism at best, or are a bad faith troll, we get those all the time. You're not even fun just repetitive and boring. I would ban you just for being a smug little shit.
