the original commenter is correct in that at the time of commenting he was downvoted without a valid argument transaction having completed. i dont believe that tone policing has any effect in this instance, outside of virtue signalling
- whatisthiseven 6mo agoA transaction can't complete if one were never opened. I am wrapping this comment thread in a finally and returning.
- thin_carapace 6mo agoits not clear whether youre ramping up the virtue signalling, being polite, or trying to be the argumentative strongman. if you care about the way you look to me, the former and latter would probably be my perception of you. out of good faith i shall follow the middle option and execute the jump instruction myself.
- FrustratedMonky 6mo agoIt is not just 'tone police', or signaling. I have watched a enough of Fox News to know they are not reporting, on a number of subjects. And so people that only consume right wing news, are in a bubble, and their arguments do follow similar patterns based on that ignorance. My response was what it was, just seeing the pattern presenting itself early. Why waste more time on engaging with BS? Arguing with True Believers with facts and citations, goes nowhere.
- thin_carapace 6mo agoto me it sounds like youre too weak of an argumenter to crack deep programming, and would rather throw the towel in early than have an attempt. sure man, that's your call. just saying it looks super weak to throw the towel in, may as well not get in the ring.
