There are a few subreddits I check out from time to time because Lemmy doesn’t have the volume of users required to keep those niche conversations active.

Wow, what a pain! There’s so much hostility and byzantine rules. It’s just not worth it.

      I’m not even talking about political stuff. I’m talking about how people make all kinds of false assumptions about you and accuse you of things when you’re just trying to have a normal human conversation.

        The Reddit psychologists always made me laugh. “Hey, you disagree with me. I really think you need to seek professional help for your problems.”

        Yes, because I don’t like Gale in BG3 and prefer Karlach, I need professional help. Thank you.

          What, why would someone say that. Gale is irritating. If it wasn’t for his ability to have two high level summons and fireballs he’d absolutely be benched for me.

            The BG3 subreddit is weirdly pro-Gale. As in if you talk against you are downvoted and reported.

        I was “YTA” because I let my friend’s dog into my room while he was whining outside my door at like 2am when my friend was away.
        Context: I was letting my friend live with me rent-free for some months with me because he was in-between moving and at one point he asked me to not let his dog into the bedrooms because he ate cheeseburger from my other friend’s room one time. Everyone in the comments was essentially “his dog, his rules”. I deleted my Reddit account after that because I just could not reason with anyone.

        For many people - in the USA most conservatives seem to be adopting this mindset, see e.g. Elon Musk’s vision for “X” - such forms of argumentation is not a negative, it is the point.

        Just like talking with toddlers (b/c it relates to both a capacity, and in a sense also their past choices as to how they want to live their lives, and yet at some point those choices become instantiated into their day-to-day activities to the point where the choice no longer presents itself, much like an addiction where you once chose it, but now it chooses you), your only choice is to put up with it or leave. You cannot have a “human” conversation with people who are not humane (either b/c they cannot or will not be thus, the difference arguably becomes moot when there is no functional distinction b/t them).

      Funny, I haven’t seen a single “commie” advocating for violence or racism. It’s always the republicans.

          “Commies” tend to be progressive who also tend not to be bigots. Sling your shit all you want. Common sense defies redneck logic. I forgot, you’re here for the specific communities yet here you are. Go back to TheDonald

      Just a reminder, encouraging people to be armed is not encouraging violence.

      Work towards peace, prepare for the inevitable.

      By all means, please show us your proof, otherwise you’re just another anti lemmy reddit schill.
