That’s… what everyone’s telling you to do…
Your premise is simply incorrect. Can’t you accept that?

It doesn’t matter if it’s 100%. Or 99%. Or even 90 or 30. It would still be quite the nuke.
I think this is dead obvious. And I mentioned that.
But you can’t get past that can you?
It’s like you have your eyeball pressed up against the bark of a tree, insisting that there is no forest.
(That’s what we call a “metaphor”.)

You said “everybody”.
rainrain@sh.itjust.works 4 weeks ago
That’s right. I did. And people who can’t see past that particular bit of treebark for the sake of discussing the forest are what we call… oh, something deeply derogatory. Use your imagination.

If this is the kind of stuff you say publicly, now wonder you thought the stuff you say in private would end the world.
Do better, man.

You do better. Return to discussing my point like you did ten replies back. Your shallow hackneyed handwaving just stinks up the thread.

In what way? Stop being one of the people who explains to someone why they’re being down-voted instead of piling on with insults?
Why should I engage with your chosen subject? I’m not interested. The only reason I even opened the post was because of the downvotes, not the premise or title.
And when I did, I found you, actively, either accidentally, or intentionally, pissing people off. You’re being abrasive and adversarial. You’re either trolling, or inadvertently turning everyone away from the thing you actually wanted to discuss.
I don’t care whether it’s deliberate, the explanation for why you should stop is the same.
Yet, you feel the need to continue to go “nu-uh, everyone else is the problem” even as the number of people telling you otherwise, and just the general disapproval, increases.
“Ground yourself in the observable.” How people react when you say and do things, is part of the observable, my friend.
If I succeed, I’ll have made you nicer to talk to. I’m a lot more invested in that. Probably not for me. You likely hate my guts about now, and wont admit it to me even if do make you rethink things.

Remember way back when I suggested that you return to discussing my point?
