> Those are some amazingly spammy "Top Posts" at the bottom of the page. From the same blog, I thought at first that the "left-pad as a service" [0] was a parody, but the whole collection of Online Tools websites is so elaborate that it might truly be in earnest.
If you don’t see the hate in statements like that, I question your empathy. What would be wrong with talking about the actual content in the article?
For all you know, the author downloaded a theme and doesn’t care in the slightest. But you don’t have enough empathy to consider that so you’ll close your mind to what could potentially help you think differently.
Hate over stupid things is remarkably boring. Deal with facts - they’re helpful.
- gjm11 2y agoI do, in fact, know that the author didn't "download a theme", because all those spammy "Top Posts" link to things advertising the author's products. I am curious as to whether you truly think that > Those are some amazingly spammy "Top Posts" at the bottom of the page. shows more hate and less empathy than > But you don't have enough empathy to consider that so you'll close your mind to what could potentially help you think differently. It seems the other way around to me, though of course my opinion will be biased by the fact that one of them is being negative about me and the other about the maker of some random blog on the interwebs. (Though ... I tend to think that any given negative remark shows more hate and less empathy when it's made directly to the person it's about. Compare "X isn't terribly bright" with "You aren't terribly bright".)
