Dude, it seems your need to win every debate you force yourself into has cause you to be incapable of letting this go. It was a joke. To some, a good one, to others a bad one. Yet it remains….
Sometimes, people just don’t want to hear what you have to say, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Know that unpopular opinions aren’t wrong opinions, it’s just that lemmy is a giant echo chamber of smaller sub-echo chambers. It’s impossible to make everyone like everthing you say, but hiding the bad doesn’t make it less bad.
And it should go without mentioning, downvotes don’t even mean anything. There is zero value in upvotes/downvotes. So just take them for what they are- useless internet points that can be exploited by basement-dwelling mouth-breathers when they dislike something said. Whether it be because you spoke the truth, or just an opinion they disagree with.
It’s a lot better than living in a false world where it appears as if everything you say is loved by everyone.
Personally, I think the entire upvote/downvote thing is the dumbest thing to come to Internet forums, but that’s just my unpopular opinion.
No, it’s time to admit that a lot of people on lemmy are uptight about being called out. You see, the joke was that everything bad that happened to Palestine is blamed on “the dems”.
That it’s downvoted doesn’t mean it’s a bad joke, it just means I unintentionally hit a nerve.
Honestly, maybe it’s time to admit it bothered you and move on. Because that’s a LOT of effort to let someone know you didn’t like their joke.
Meant to say the shill they were propping up. The guy they claim is anti-AI is an advocate for it. I fixed the original comment. Thanks for pointing out the bad link.
These look amazing! The makings of a superb deli sandwich!
