That, but also- I don’t want to turn this into a giant political soapbox for people to air their grievances. The point is the lack of nuance, not let’s circlejerk about MAGA.
But yeah. It is a pretty good micro example.
That some people believe your bullshit doesn’t make it true. There are people that once believed smoking cigarettes was a good way to deal with asthma.
And what I am is of no relevance to this discussion- or your fucking business.
Lastly, I see the wind-up to one of your legendary “I’m a victim!” tantrums so I’m going to go ahead and end this here.
Fucking hilarious!
How convenient that you have your own clever definition of trolling and it amazingly happens to not involve the bullshit you do here!
What’s worse than the shit you pull here is that people actually believe it.
Again, nuance. There are people from ALL political affiliations, and all walks of life that do this- not just MAGA.
I’m not going to turn this into a political debate as it’s not a political post. The point is that people seem to be too quick to argue, and not quick enough to use rational and nuanced thought before arriving at their conclusions.
The problem goes a lot further than just MAGA. Again, nuance. This isn’t a one-sided issue. Frankly, I’m noticing it a lot more here on lemmy than I am elsewhere if I had to be honest.
Very few people are willing to discuss/debate topics without polarizing the issue, and then attacking someone for having said things they never said to begin with.
I see it every day.
Fair point.
Man… the future is going to be BLEAK.
I guess I just don’t see the point in saying shit at all. But that’s me. We’re all different and have different motivations.
Oh they’re a massive troll. And lemmy deserves their shit. It’s been known for a long time that they’re here to disrupt and troll and all admins allow it.
He even told someone to kill themselves if I remember correctly. Apparently, that’s all fine.
Everyone knows you’re a troll. The whole “drag” bit is just the “I identify as an attack helicopter” but just subtle enough so as to make it easy to pretend it’s real.
It’s absolutely amazing you’ve been able to keep this going for so long.
Yep. The one and the same. It’s unbelievable that they’re still around with the same username. The admins of their instance just don’t give a shit.
I guess I’m lucky that this is the first time I’ve ever heard the term, but as of the moment- I think it’s fucking hilarious!
Not so much the word itself, but that there are actual clowns out there that say this without even a trace of humor. It’s the duality of it all.
A ridiculous person, playing at total seriousness, while saying a monumentally ridiculous thing.
That’s a standing ovation level of dipshittery.
Bloodmouth Graveyard….
This needs to be a band, an album, a movie or a TV show!
Right. And the other comments where people say that even their kids have no idea what it means, they just say it to be funny….
They’re lying?
I mean, even in the show things are pretty bleak. There’s a bit where we see how earth is… not great unless you’re super wealthy.
Yeah? Okay. What does it mean then?
You think the Expanse is optimistic? Did you read it?
That’s exactly what happens to me! It’s as if people have no point to make until they rewrite yours.
If it’s purposeful. It’s a brilliant strategy. Keep people defending against shit they never said and not pressing them to back up their points? There’s no way to lose. And in their minds, that’s what conversation is- something to “win.”
And open AI violates human culture and creativity. It’s a fucking shame that there are laws against this because that fucker should be up against the wall.
