  • Yeah, it's somehow a rarely acknowledged truth than more than one fact can exist.

  • I appreciate that suggestion. That is probably the exact way for me to think of it. Now if I can break this pattern...

    It's comments like yours that give me faith in Lemmy honestly. They do a lot to cancel out the judgy and angry ones.

  • It's unclear to me -- does it have any kind of wine or proton integration?

  • I was about to say, that sounds just like libation! Turns out it is the same. Either "liberate" was a typo (no shade, just noticing) or they changed the name?

    In any case that app is fuckin awesome. It makes short work of freeing your entire audible library of drm.

  • God forbid you consider the real reason you're being downvoted. But you won't get anymore downvotes from me since I won't be seeing any more of your shitty comments or posts.

  • ... Downvoting this shitty comment is what oppression looks like to you...?

  • I actually usually admit if I'm wrong, but I think I don't if it's a thing where it's obvious I was wrong and the other party is holding it over my head. It's a character flaw but also I don't really know how to deal with that situation because admitting I'm wrong to a person doing that, in my mind, gives them permission to blame me for anything else adjacent to the situation, which is usually unfair.

  • So you've noticed this user lurking a lot and also making lots of claims? Indeed, up === down.

  • There's also the phenomenon where if you say anything remotely negative online about a thing, people think you're the most enraged person ever, even if you're just mildly annoyed. A lot of assumptions are made on the Internet, that's for sure.

  • What a disturbing way to draw humans

  • Sure, but if you're doing it online and trying to hide that you're doing it, I'm gonna say 90% of the time or more, the intention is to irritate.

  • I don't know anything about the first or last items in this list, but I don't see anything else crazy on there. "Conspiracy theory" strictly would refer to any of your list when unproven, however if you look at the use of that term in reality, it's far more often used to describe an apeshit theory like the us government planning 9/11 or the earth being flat. Something like those, you need to ignore several obvious basic arguments against them to even entertain them.

    Edit: rereading your original comment, it sounds like we are both saying the same thing really.

  • Right, that's also how I think of it
