yeah and it’s working fuck you
I feel that of someone gets all emotional and veers away from reality, it’s best to give them an out and then leave them alone.
They may be able to get over it, or maybe not, but nothing else is getting accomplished and all of us are going to die wrong about something.
I have a genuine appreciation for people willing to argue, but it ain’t me unless I’m getting paid.
Say your piece, then peace out.
Piece
Decades of arguing on the internet has mellowed me out some. At this point if someone is hostile without adding anything meaningful to the thread, I ignore them.
If they’re being a dick but made a point that might be seen as valid, I’ll talk to the lurker who’s reading the thread.
I feel the most useful when I can link to content that is informative, say a deep dive or a source that has academic or press chops. This is even useful if I agree with the other correspondents because then it’s no longer just the hearsay of a bunch of dudes on the internet.
Here’s a hug for you 🤗
Gotta admire the dedication.
That guy is a master debater.
A Cunning Linguist if you will
“Who is this guy and why is he relevant? Oh, someone posted a video! … Well, that was no help at all.”

Long tap -> save picture
Well 5 minutes before I was just too far lost in my derailed thoughts to realize
so many users on lemmy
Younger brother tries to ragebait me with obtuse wrongness thinking he is being clever.
Pull uno reverse card on him with acute correctness and sociopathic level of patience.
It works and now he is insanely angry that he can’t make me mad.
Continue to make him so angry he can’t form coherent sentences.
He starts yelling at me and demands that I apologize
Tell him I’m sorry that he is an idiot and wish he hadn’t wasted so much of our time doing idiot things.
He kicks me out of the house and I’m uninvited to Christmas
Sucks being correct sometimes.
