So I guess you are.

This is boring. You are boring. Feel free to have the last word, I’m sure it’s very important to you.

Not to be too “WELL AKSHOOOALEEE” I just think people - myself included - got used to how relatively quiet things felt in the mid 2010’s and didn’t realize this shift was happening.

Oh please are you seriously pretending that was meant to be informative? It was 100% snark and meant to be retaliatory. Don’t play dumb to score magic internet points. You’re not dumb. I know you aren’t.

The internet just isn’t fun anymore. Right wing bigots are stomping around and the best communities are all either crumbling or raising their bridges and filling their motes so AI can’t scrape them and these asshats can’t get in, killing the ability for new people to find them. And who can blame them? They want to protect their communities from very real threats.

The internet is Balkanizing and it’s to our collective detriment.

It’s less a resurgence and more that they’ve transitioned from AM talk radio/cable news to youtube, podcast platforms, and social media.

Whatever dude I really don’t care anymore

Yes literally always? Doing something wrong because someone does something wrong doesn’t make your wrong action morally right. They don’t cancel into a positive.

We can understand why people do wrong things, been be sympathetic, but it doesn’t make the action good.

Fair point

I don’t think you know what that word means but go off

Did we not learn “two wrongs don’t make a right” in kindergarten or something?

ok 👍

Yeah that basically sums it up. Whatever it’s all magic internet points lol

I know you know the answer to this but yall are having too much fun dogpiling as you play dumb, so go ahead and enjoy yourself 👍

More substantive than the alternative

As I said in another comment that’s just rolling in the mud with pigs. Hit them back with information or if you want to be petty but not the same, just make it a point to call out their ignorance.

Just call them on their shit in a real way. Why play in the mud with a pig? Point out they simply aren’t learned enough, that’s plenty lol

Both are. The first is obviously worse of course lol. Man didn’t realize this would upset so many people. Clearly the first person is worse. The response is also just kind of snarky and annoying.

wat

I mean it is an obnoxious thing to say lol
