  • I'll validate you here. You made a good point and you were wrong about nothing that mattered, if anything at all. Yet this dude slid in, in classic online asshole style, to redefine the conversation and cherry pick what it's about and what would matter or not and even went so far to correct you "no, the point was [what I said, because you don't matter]."

    I don't know what the fuck is wrong with people who do this. What is the fucking point of attempting to reframe a discussion you didn't start and die on the hill of "that other person sucks because they said something I argue is technically inaccurate and has little or nothing to do with a valid point they're making". I keep saying to myself I have to quit Lemmy, and it's primarily that exact type of asshole behavior that causes me to think that way.

  • Trim has catastrophically failed in delivering every single promise he made to the working class MAGA cunts who voted for him

    He delivered 100% on being a Nazi, and that's the only one that really matters to them. They'll sacrifice themselves to hurt minorities. They've practically told us this and now they're proving it

  • Well said

  • I agree. It's obvious to me that it will never be a tidy "it's just them to blame" scenario but people really want it to be, regardless. I suspect the downvote crew will show up soon...

  • Godammit. I've boycotted Exxon and BP, for their negligence that led to spills, for a long time. I knew shell probably wasn't much better but I've preferred them anyhow. Turns out I was helping the worst offender. Awesome.

    Anyone else dealing with this lately?

  • I'm guessing it's a new default that came with an update. The way android updates apps automatically these days feels extremely random and somewhat infrequent imo

  • That was kinda the entire point I was making actually

  • How dare you dispute the genuine value of this conversation that literally has never happened!? We need to other anyone who disagrees with us by way of making a ridiculous and disingenuous caricature of their viewpoint! /s

  • The thing about words is that they can mean many things. Your choice to read them as uncharitably as you can imagine is not damning evidence.

  • Yes your refusal to admit that you making shit up in your head not being objective reality is what I'm talking about

  • No, I don't think I will renew

  • How is it a thing that someone is belittled for saying something likely true and makes no implications unless you invent them? No one is saying it's the customers fault or that insurance companies would be angels if we forced them to.

  • No, I don't think I will renew

    Jump

  • No one is saying they'd clean up their act. But yes if they were constantly losing customers they'd obviously lower prices a bit. Keep in mind this is not blaming customers.

  • No, I don't think I will renew

  • I think they are "gullible enough" to believe that losing business is the only thing that would keep corporations from being shitty.

  • That shit keeps happening to me. It's a new scam they're running. I know because I keep changing companies due to it. Each time they pretend that's just how much insurance costs now, or try to blame it on me moving (each time to a lower crime area). Then I find another company that's offering me slightly more than I paid last term- the kind of increase you (unfortunately) expect from these vultures. But now those old standard increases have become not enough. Seriously had these sons of bitches try to raise my insurance rates 50-200% multiple times in a row, multiple companies doing the same shit. This ought to be investigated by a government agency and multibillion dollar fines issued. Instead, it's just "how it is" now in America.
