It sounds like an anecdotal experience with a single person has shaped your opinion on millions of people you have yet to encounter into a brutally negative one. Your flags are much redder than you may realize.

Jax@sh.itjust.works 9 months agoIdk man, I knew a girl who fits 2 out of the 3 descriptors her (she didn’t tell me about any voices if she heard them).
She was a terrible fucking person. “Spiritual” has seemed like a synonym for self-centered ever since.

Yes, because I’ve never met another person obsessed with similar things that I’ve also disliked.
Again, we’ve got some brilliant fucking detectives on Lemmy. Shaping up to be Reddit 2.0. All we need is for you guys to start a witch hunt.

Give the guy with the incel comment a break… this is shitposting after all 😉.

We’re all guilty of doing that at some point. Does it make it ok if we say all conservatives are shitty? (Most of us will say: They are until proven otherwise)
Jax@sh.itjust.works 9 months ago
Yes, I can safely say beyond a shadow of doubt that conservatives are shitty people. All of them.

But your analysis is lacking nuance. You shouldn’t extend the same analysis to others.

Sample size of 1. Thus all women are the same

Yep and this is the guy sarcastically going, “Great detective work!” to everyone else lmao.

The reading comprehension devil strikes again, or maybe it’s the cherrypicking devil
lennybird@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Nah, just a blanket generalization from an anecdotal sample of one. But keep going with your great detective work about, “knowing a girl.”
