Or when they say something you agree with for 80% of their comment and then at the very end take a hard turn into something distasteful. You were so close!
Best one I heard was a guy explaining all the bargain basement things the government does wrong, how to fight bad policy via local elections, supporting quality changes and movementd, and then ending it on flat earth because the government made up round earth too lol.
God, I hate when someone has the exact same opinion as me but they express it in such an annoying and obnoxious way that I lowkey don’t want to agree. Everyone is dumber than me, and that’s why they’re stupid enough to do that. Frankly, they’re just copying my opinions.
You’re right. I, as the most superior person in this thread, have a duty to set a good example by keeping a respectful tone. I 100% agree with exactly what you said.
Bruh! Im with you on this for sure! Its that weird feeling when someone ridin the exact same wave as you, but they’re just flappin around on their board.
Its like Im ridin this clean, glassy idea-barrel, feelin all enlightened and tubular, and suddenly this dude drops in behind me on their moms foam board and suddenly starts shouting the same thing, but in the like most uncoolest way possible. And Im just sittin there like, “Dude… why you gotta make our shared thought like that?”
Honestly, it does feel like they just catchin my swell instead of finding their own. Whole thing just tastes like sunscreen and feels like sand in the wetsuit, right my man.
Nietzsche wrote, “We often refuse to accept an idea merely because the way in which it has been expressed is unsympathetic to us.” - Human, All Too Human
While this quote can be found all over the internet, attributed to Nietzsche, I’m unable to find even a single source reference, no mention anywhere of from where it originates. Do you know for certain that it’s from Nietzsche? I’m starting to get the feeling that it has been misattributed to him.
I actually feel like that’s the opposite, where someone you usually can’t stand makes a very well articulated and reasonable point. I enjoy those moments because it showcases dynamic character, “This person you dislike is still capable of critical thinking and worth engaging with from time to time.” That tends to restore my faith in humanity a lot lol
Me with nuclear power. It is probably a good option at the moment, but some people are just so braindead about insisting it’s the best possible source of energy with no downsides
Cooling rods are just like limiting its power potential bro, did you know Ai only uses 10% of its brain? im removing them to fully unlock its potential.
I will defend someone who says something I don’t agree with, if they’re being respectful and willing to admit they are wrong or open to changing their mind.
I won’t defend someone saying something I think is right or I totally agree with, if they’re being a jackass about it.
I’ve seen threads where both things happen consecutively, and they both get downvoted anyway 😅.
Maybe you can just agree to disagree expecting people to just admit their wrong and agree with you is… going to cause you a lot of trouble in life. Especially if it’s about opinions, opinions aren’t actually objective. Unless the person is way out in left field just agree to disagree, even then you’re probably better off just walking away from the conversation
Yeah absolutely there’s a lot of topics and subjective stuff where agreement to disagree can happen. Being capable of admitting wrong is different than readily admitting wrong at the first disagreement and I do not expect that, but there’s a stubborn kind of tone that I can tell someone will not consider any contrary evidence, which lessens the need to continue the conversation.
I don’t care if someone is rude. I care if they’re willing to discuss in good faith.
Someone being nice to me on here but seems to be manipulative is far worse in my view than someone who is aggressive and nasty but intellectually honest.
I can understand that, but to me they are at least loosely linked. Poor tone clouds a good argument and often is an indicator of a discussion in bad faith.
I will admit I have seen a handful of counter-examples over 3 years on Lemmy, where one or two commentors came out of the gate with an angry and accusatory stance, but both were able to reconcile with each other in later replies with cooler heads. I have more often seen much longer threads where flamebait begets a flamewar without going anywhere useful.
I’ve been in both. I tend to be pretty impatient and want to get to the crux of a core philosophical disagreement rather than waste time on reading people post 101 stuff at me though.
Also, sometimes I’ll see comments about things that I had no opinion on that just seemed so obnoxious or annoying that they made me want to research the subject a bit just to see if I want to disagree.
I be out here defending Harry Potter simply because the anti-HP crowd in queer spaces have become so toxic they’re turning the concept of having read a book 15 years ago into some sort of puritan test of thoughtcrime.
It is okay if you liked the story. It does not make you a lizardperson antichrist lol
I literally wouldn’t even know an HBO show was happening if people hadn’t been rageposting about it round the clock. Every single JK Rowling update I have ever received has been from left and queer sources. I just don’t understand how anyone can follow all the trivial social media accounts of a vocal fascist who they claim to hate. It’s one thing when it’s a politician and keeping an eye out is for the sake of your own wellbeing, but she’s literally just some washed up has-been celeb. Block that shit and stop giving her new projects free advertizing, please.
Some people spend too much time online and it shows. There are some very drama filled spaces where it seems like people purposely follow things that make them angry and assume everyone else should be as angry as they are.
I know the algorithms encourage it, but people need to just disengage and stop giving bandwidth to the rage bait stuff.
For me it was mostly Dark Souls 2 critique, but I got the feeling other people also disliked his attitude in other videos, at least the game related ones.
He’s opinionated on Fallout games too, but I agree with most of what he says. I watched an interview with him recently and he’s very well-spoken when not purposely acting crazy.
Yeah I think he misses that at least Fallout 3 and Skyrim are basically proto-sandbox games before sandbox games were really codified as a concept. Fallout 4 and Starfield can go fuck themselves though, Fallout 76 is mid but still better than both Fallout 4 and Starfield in my opinion.

I love those. They always catch me off guard and I usually choke on whatever I was eating/drinking at the time lol

Might be a different translation

I think it might be a different translation. Should be Human, all too human: Book 6, Aphorism 303.
I found another translation from R.J. Hollingdale.
Edit: I found it! It’s Kaufmann’s Portable Nietzsche Page 58 Aphorism 303.
Additional edit: It’s not word for word.
That’s it! I finally found it now:

Me withholding an upvote when I go into the comment section and see the comment I was going to make.
I would’ve upvoted you, but …
That’s some “The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point” energy
I actually feel like that’s the opposite, where someone you usually can’t stand makes a very well articulated and reasonable point. I enjoy those moments because it showcases dynamic character, “This person you dislike is still capable of critical thinking and worth engaging with from time to time.” That tends to restore my faith in humanity a lot lol
To be clear, I was referencing this: https://clickhole.com/heartbreaking-the-worst-person-you-know-just-made-a-gr-1825121606/
It’s not the same thing as the post, but I think it’s pretty negative about that.
Me with nuclear power. It is probably a good option at the moment, but some people are just so braindead about insisting it’s the best possible source of energy with no downsides
“uhhh… Copilot says the cooling rods aren’t necessary.”
🚨🚨🚨
Cooling rods are just like limiting its power potential bro, did you know Ai only uses 10% of its brain? im removing them to fully unlock its potential.
Dude, I was still against it back when it was argued as “relatively safe” lol
You know, before AI.
Can you imagine a single one of these trained monkey CEOs being handed the keys to a shiny new nuclear power plant at this point?? Good god, hahaha
This is me and Michael Moore. He makes a lot of great points but holy fuck do I hate that bastard
He is hard to like.
Every liberal and socialist and left leaning individual in the world
Come on, that’s not fair. Only like 80%.
And seriously probably much fewer if you disregard online and late-stage teenagers.

Being into cars and video games, this happens so frequently. Especially because I enjoy both console and PC. Both sides make me hate both sides.
I forgive some of the console users. I do not forgive the console makers.
Consoles with their exclusivity and unique & DRM’d hardware are extremely bad for game preservation.
It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it and how it’s perceived.
That’s why we have the politics we have today. Ain’t it great to be picky about how something is said?
off topic, but what kind of stench is on Homelander? He wears the same suit every day and it doesn’t look like it breathes at all.
he never takes it off because the muscles are from the suit and not antony starr

Just one small problem, Ben. Sell their houses to who??
Fucken Aquæman?!
Wait what did Hbomb do
For me it was mostly Dark Souls 2 critique, but I got the feeling other people also disliked his attitude in other videos, at least the game related ones.
