I mean I kept engaging purely out of curiosity and intrigue. I still haven’t figured out if it’s a bot or some weird social experiment, possibly both? I’m nuerodivergent myself, so I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt.

I want to clarify that I was not being facetious with you, I truly wish you have a good day. I’d also love to discuss these topics with you further, but I think there’s a breakdown in our communication styles that would unfortunately make doing so fruitless or unenjoyable for either/both of us. I want to understand your message, it’s just not happening like this.

I do appreciate some of those links though, some good stuff in them. I also appreciate many of your arguments, even if I might not understand their relevance to our discussion.

Take care.

Thanks for the discussion. Have a good day ☺️

My first comment was absolutely an attack at the content of your post and the generalization made (specifically the image description).

I don’t give a flying fuck about your personal identity. Literally couldn’t care less who you are, your name, your age - any personal details about you are completely irrelevant at this point in time.

One-line insults? Friend, you’ve suggested I had media literacy issues and vaguely malignant fixations in multiple comments. Is that not insulting?

I made a single comment that could, by the most generous of measures, be considered insulting because of how sarcastic it was. I used clinical language purposefully in an attempt to avoid anything that could be considered insulting. Hence anemic, in the context, meaning the forum you linked was rather small or inactive.

I’m not going to reveal any PII to you or anyone else here for any reasons. I want to discuss ideas and explore their merit, personal information is irrelevant.

So you’re just taking the piss. Got it. Thanks for wasting my time.

You’ve sited a single article and an anemic forum. I’m here to discuss things with other people, I don’t have a fixation on your or anyone’s personal language. Suggesting otherwise is absurd.

Interesting suggestion, I’ll have to check it out when I get some time.

So if my post was a “react-comment,” the implication being my lacking of media literacy has caused me to misunderstand you, can you at least do me the favor of clarifying your meaning? I asked some questions, answering those might help.

I’m trying to discuss this in good faith with you, but I truly do not think that’s being reciprocated.

Your read is way way way fucking off base. Might be my fault, I thought I was clear but I suppose I understand how one might not think so.

I do not find anything about this administration or their actions to be funny or amusing. I find the people and policies that makeup MAGA to be abhorrent. To be honest, I think you and I can probably agree politically on a lot of topics.

What I was commenting on, through sarcasm (my bad for not including the /s I guess), was your sweeping generalization. Those only serve to divide, further pushing members of the working class to splinter off into smaller groups to be more easily exploited and controlled by the ownership class.

Maybe its hyperbole and I missed it? Maybe not, perhaps you truly believe everyone in the US deserves, wanted, and supports what our government is doing. Perhaps you think we aren’t doing enough to resist? I can agree to that, all the protests I’ve been to have been smaller than I had hoped. I’m also getting in touch with other orgs in my area to get more started, hopefully we can get something happening.

Idk what to tell you. Your post came off as very crass to me, and I responded with heavy sarcasm.

I know what will help! I’ll sow even MOAR division! Yes! People haven’t been divided enough by the billionaires and media owners on corpo social media, so I’m gonna bring division to the fediverse!
