The Space Program is built off of rockets that were used to kill people, so fuck the Saturn V, right?
I’m guessing no to all of those because you’ve got little arguments built up for each one, but here’s the problem. You have to make arguments for each one because your entire stance is nonsense. It’s just “I before E comes after C.” Is it accurate for some things? Yes. Is it accurate for the majority? Absolutely not.
So, yes really. It is a truly insane way to live that is reductive, immature and just openly ignorant about how the world works.
The person you are replying to is talking about pink sky being built on bluesky, and you equate that to Lemmy being based on Reddit. One is a hard technical dependency, and the other is a conceptual inspiration.
You are engaging in an equivocation fallacy, and it’s super dishonest.
No. I’m using them interchangably here because they are interchangable here. It is as simple as that. If you want to invent a more convoluted train of thought that you want to ascribe to me (because you, of course, know what happens in my head better than I do), by all means, but it won’t change what I meant. Nor will it get me to engage. You already spent every ounce of good will by inventing your own narrative. I’m not going to be a part of it.
