"OCD" refers to the medical condition known as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and its symptoms, and also anyone who gets annoyed by messiness or who double checks stuff. If you ever claim it only refers to that first thing, you are being prescriptivist, but also based.
a lot of hobbyist internet linguists still need to realize that "having opinions about how language should be used" and even "attempting to enforce those opinions" is not evil, you just can't conflate it with how language is used in reality. stop using the word "prescriptivism" like that.

it's kinda funny that our political climate has reached the point where if your public forum bans people for spreading blatant misinformation or hate, it's considered an echo chamber. basically for a space to uphold truth or human rights, it has to be insulated from reality. i mean yeah that's true.

I was skeptical of the drone reports at first.

I mocked people who reported them.

I laughed at them.

And then I saw one for myself and captured photographic evidence.

They’re real.
