  • My point is mostly this: are we here to discuss and provide information or throw paper at each other. The comment you responded to wasn’t one I agreed with either ,but it was based on their opinion and (imo) not worth arguing because opinions are subjective. It is worth considering becasue they are telling you about their personal, if ancesdotal, experience.

    So when people completely miss the opportunity for conversation about something that appears controversial, and rather pile on because they are daring to have an opinion… well ya , I say something.

    I’ve been around long enough to see institutional thinking crush community and conversation and I don’t like it. So there is my subjective opinion and feedback.




  • Knowing that something failed you and stating it does not call for being preached to by someone who the system obviously worked for. This is just the flip side of the “I know better than you” coin.

    This type of educated bullying is also not the answer, or response that gains results.

    People have opinions and experiences with out having to back them up with studies and papers . Your response is maddening in the way that it only serves a cooling effect on actual sharing of experience and input… which cools all that lovely diverse , straggler input.

    You sound like you’re hiding feelings behind papers and studies.

    What is so hard about using what you learned without quoting all you know?













  • I wasn’t serious when I said I’d fall in line behind you. Emojis on are a world wide phenomenon. If it doesn’t appeal to you then move on. Are you this controlling and intolerant irl? Or are you just petty online? Since you seem to lack social nuance, I’ll be clear, I don’t really care by asking these questions. I am asking you to ask yourself. Pettiness and coercion are also a social cancer


  • I’ve loved the thoughtful discourse on Lemmy, I’ve grown weary of seeing news about reddit in the feed. Reddit died long before this last bit, becoming a haven for a particular, ill informed, consensus seeking group.

    Then tonight, I had a reddit moment here on Lemmy where some non socialized, rude, consensus seeking user wanted to snipe and sounded like an over protected , suburban, adolescent boy.

    I haven’t seen one of those here yet and they are the absolute plague of open discourse .

    Please Lemmy, don’t let it go on.
