Comment on This war shows just how broken social media has become — The global town square is in ruins
Steeve@lemmy.ca 1 year agoHaha what? You quoted my response to your Andrew Tate nonsense and asked who “they” was. There was no “they” in the part of my comment you quoted, so “they” is from your comment. But sure, I’ll be a clown here, why not lmao.

Whatever helps you self soothe kid.
But the funniest part of all of this, is that I wasn’t even talking about Andrew Tate supporters. They were an example of the embarrassingly stupid shit that people believe, despite your claims that the internet has made everybody better informed than pre-internet relics.
And I could pull out 100 more examples. They supported a president that suggested injecting bleach or “finding a way to get sunlight inside the body” as potential COVID cures both before and after. They’ve literally killed people based on the cold-reading of a shit-tier, 4chan Nostradamus. There are people who genuinely believe the earth is flat. There is a sitting politician that talks about “Jewish space lasers” and “peach tree dishes” and people donate money to help her keep her job.
But you can’t, because you don’t actually know shit about the world before the internet, the people who lived in it or if the claims about them you pulled from your ass will hold up to even the slightest scrutiny.

“Kid”? What is this, early 2000s internet? Do you want to threaten to beat me up irl too? Fuck off dude, you’re irrelevant, stop acting like the world is ending because you could never figure out how to turn on a printer. The world wasn’t better when you were young, your shitty attitude is evidence of that.

Wasn’t a thing on my 2000s internet. Maybe it’s just because you were 3?
I’m sure that would have really hurt my feelings if I knew absolutely nothing about myself.
Not a thing I actually claimed and not actually evidence of the thing I never claimed. Do you need me to put it in a Spongebob Squarepants meme for you?

Clearly your head is so far up your own ass that you don’t know anything about yourself. Do you really think I’m here to “hurt feelings”? Says more about you than it does about me doesn’t it.
