My experience on this platform has been mixed so far but one thing I’ve noticed the most is a significant contingent of the user base is really reactionary in their discourse.

This is a very typical exchange I have here :

User: I don’t like this color because it’s red.

Me: I don’t know, looks more like purple to me. What about red is bad?

User: Why don’t you fuck yourself in the face you fucking cuntfuck!

Me: OK…

Like, what gives? I don’t have this experience on other platforms. I have arguments but never this shutdown meccanism.

    I think a lot of it has to do with an* impending sense of anomie. Something someone said to me once that I’d have done well to heed earlier: Don’t take what people say personally, especially if they mean it personally. The idea being it’s probably more about themselves than you.
