For example, if I talk about “magic”, most of you will tell me I’m wrong without even asking me what I mean. You might even insult me.

How common is this? How much of this conversation is actual communication vs just a string of triggering phrases that we react to?

How much of Lemmy is people just barking at their own echo?

    Looking at your post that started this, multiple people were asking you what you meant by it, and being perfectly patient with you.

    To quote purpleworm from that thread “Calling something natural “magic” with no further context to explain that it’s a metaphor is obscurantist.”
