You're entitled to your own opinion, but one of the few things you can do as an individual is choose carefully what you buy. I do care, and I understand why many people do care as well. But again, it's your right not to care.

  Depends. If it does harm you, in some way or another, it's not absurd to talk about it. You may not care, but everything we do is a statement about ourselves, consciously or not.

  That flavor of "illness" isn't special at all, it's very normal. Behold any boycott pretty much ever.

  And yet you felt the need to inject that viewpoint into a thread where everyone is pointing out their own personal preferences and not telling others what to buy.

  Yes sir, FirmwareBurner sir! What better person to take advice from than one who refers to his fellows as NPCs with special mental illnesses.

      That, or your incessant self-aggrandizing misantrophy rubs me the wrong way. In a flagged thread where you refer to others you don't agree with as having mental illnesses, you try to defend yourself by suggesting that I might have a reading disability.

        Here's what an impartial LLM has to say about your replies to my arguments using the reasoning deep thinking option: >Please read these comments below. Is fredrikholm correct or did he misinterpret what FirmwareBurner was saying? Would you say fredrikholm was arguing in good or in bad faith towards FirmwareBurner ? >Conclusion Fredrikholm misinterpreted what FirmwareBurner was saying. FirmwareBurner’s criticism was specific to people who judge others’ buying choices, not a blanket dismissal of everyone who cares about purchases. Fredrikholm’s sarcastic reply exaggerates and distorts this into a broader attack, missing the clarification FirmwareBurner provided in response to palata. Thus, fredrikholm did not correctly interpret FirmwareBurner’s intended meaning. Fredrikholm’s comment leans heavily toward bad faith. The sarcastic tone, misrepresentation of FirmwareBurner’s position, and reliance on a personal jab rather than substantive rebuttal indicate a lack of sincere engagement. While online miscommunication or emotional reactions could explain some of this, the overall approach—especially ignoring the clarification and contributing nothing constructive—suggests fredrikholm was not arguing in good faith toward FirmwareBurner. In other words, you've been caught acting as what youngsters refer to as "a roach bitch" in the comments mate.

        > caught ... roach bitch Do you not see the level of anti-social hatred you spew in response to all the people pushing back on your (flagged) comment? Of course I am not meeting your argument; I'm matching your level of acerbic tone to demonstrate just how bad it sounds. If there is one adult in this subthread, it's AnimalMuppet. I'm taking them up on their advice.

  If it harms others or me, I will tell you about it. You can ignore it from a distance, but if you tend to purchase those things, the illness is not in my head.

  > You need special flavor of mental illness to ... I did not downvote you before, because I believe it's your right not to care (even though I disagree). But being so far away from understanding why people may care as to say that they "need special flavor of mental illness"... you are the one who seemingly needs to learn about the world.

  Wow that's even more ignorant. Not bad not bad But you know at the end of the day we do life on the same planet. If your spending habit affects me, I do care. I care about CO2 / weather changes, toxin in earth and water, Nazis, genocide etc. You do understand that there are plenty of reasons that you do affect others?!

  > I do care about what I buy, I just don't care what others buy and what other people think about the things that I buy. Is that clear now? You need special flavor of mental illness to care and vocalize about the shit other people buy with their own money. Are you fine with someone buying a human slave, then?
