No man, all the og poster was saying was that the downvote strategy has no effect. That's all they said.

And the best you could come up with is

"hurr durr nazi".

And when multiple people tried to clarify to you how you missed the point you instead doubled down and started talking about logic and how arguments don't follow. Which brings me back to the first thing I wrote:

don't shoot the messenger. Shoot the message

This is like the third time I've explained this. I'm done. Bye.

You're really hung up on the debate bro argumentation and seem to be intentionally missing the point everyone is trying to convey to you.

Get over yourself man. No one is giving you a hand job for your superior intellectual acumen.

I don't even know what your point is.

There is no deep philosophy or logical argumentation going on here.

All we're telling you is someone pointed out why the strategy doesn't work to change minds and the only thing you can come up with is "hurr durr nazi".

You have some growing to do it seems.

That's.... not what they are saying. They are critiquing the strategy. If nazzis and I agree 1+1 makes 2 that doesn't mean we're all Nazzis.

I don't understand why so many struggle with addressing the message and are so eager to shoot the messenger. It's weird but really common on Lemmy.

Yea of course. As professionals our window to do tech support is limited.

Ok. I like the energy but where was all this fervor when it came time to vote? I don't understand. I mean I do. Kamala was boring af but come on. We already had one round of Trump. What did y'all expect?!?!

Worked out for Apple. Timmy Cook was able to get an exemption on the tariffs for cell phones.

Oh yes. I can't comment but I've heard that from other sources as well. Bummer

I'm curious how DaVinci resolve's fusion page compares?

You beat me to it. The moment someone makes a FOSS cad program where the ui doesn't suck a donkeys ball they will be the goat

It my personal experience I found it all extremely convoluted... And I like gdpr

Ok, but he's @satansmaggotycumfart is not totally wrong. People DID sit this out. However, the broader question I have is how fragile the US democratic experiment is. If all it takes for one election cycle for people to sit out, then the flame of democracy was never very strong to begin with. Checks and balances are all but gone at this point...

 

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.
