  • I’ll try to be civil and will ask clarifying questions.

    However, as soon as I see someone both-sides-ing, I block them.
    Ain’t got no time for their “can’t we all just get along, kumbaya” centrist bullshit anymore. No we can’t “just get along”, the overton window has gone too far to the right for that.
    You have actual Nazis running shit now, or attempting to run things in other nations.

    We need to fight them, the time for “understanding” is over.


  • I knew I should have added “Scientific consensus” because sure, if you follow the neighbour down the street into his or her conspiracy rabbit hole, you’ll end up believing that climate change is a hoax invented by “the Jews” to hide the “fact” that the earth is flat, and that we never went to the moon, and that Bush did 9/11.

    If you don’t have knowledge, and don’t know where to start, then it’s not your place to convince someone else. All you can say is then “I don’t know either”, which is a full sentence.





  • If they’re saying “No one else is telling you this”, they’re not an expert. But you’re right, it’s not easy.

    I should’ve said “go where the consensus is”, especially if you don’t have any knowledge on this yourself.

    Don’t think you know better than anyone else, because you heard one person say that things are different than what “tHe MaIn StReAm TeLlS yOu”
