  • jesus

    that sounds awful.

    I love how teachers take it personally that you don't want to do mandatory work lol. anyway. glad you made it out of there.

  • I get the sword in the stone reference. If we hadn't met on the toxic polluted battlefield of Lemmy rhetoric we might have been friends

  • Thank you for sharing an opposing viewpoint respectfully. I'll check out your articles.

  • I did read it and I'm trying to understand, but as I said it's not clear what your issue is. I'm sorry but I don't have any more time to donate to you. You've strayed dangerously far from the original topic and my reply to it so I'll have to leave you here to figure out where you lost us. Good luck.

  • I was asking the guy above you (who are you btw lol) about his question to me, as he has waffled back and forth between use of language and my main point, which is the abuse of power. This is because it (abuse) directly relates to OP's concern, in case you forgot what post you were discussing, and the use of language does not. K? :)

  • You're arguing against my position by challenging the metaphor... by saying the two entities are not the same. Honey that's what metaphors are used for. To compare two different things. This is tragic.

  • I commend you for calling them out, even if they never learn their lesson. It's important to call out abuse of power wherever it occurs. I'm sorry you had to get this dirt all over you, it's not fair. But I'm glad you said something so we could see it. Carry on 💪

  • So wait are you asking me about my use of language or the actions of people? Your message seems really confused

  • I'm saying that Feddit.uk is NOT a smaller instance, even though it's smaller than .world. All instances are smaller than .world. You didn't read my last comment? Sorry but I don't have time for trolling so I'm going to block you without reading your next comment to make sure you've read this one. Have a day. 👋

  • This person is suggesting that if we abolish the fire that's burning the house down, we won't be able to heat up food or stay warm in winter.

    ... Which is the entire point of the post. It is literally a parody of this style of rhetoric, in which the subject of abolition is compared to something strictly necessary, and shown to be not necessary, and often harmful. I don't know if this person struggles with reading comprehension, but they read and recited the metaphor without any comprehension of its meaning. Stay in school kids

  • Lol?? You did backpedal, you literally reduced your qualifying metric within one response my guy, I'm sorry but your credibility is gone lmaoooo and furthermore you think instances are small if they're not the same size as .world??? It's the largest instance by over 100 thousand users LMAO every instance would be small by your (new :/) definition! Ha ha ha this has been fun

  • Incorrect use of metaphor, but ignoring that, how do you feel about the comparison to rampant police/prison abuse?

  • You should ask OP, not me lmaoooo I'm responding to him about his topic

  • I'm talking about the topic OP mentioned, scroll up ^^^

  • I don't have an issue?? LOL Ummmm... you're the one countering my top level comment with "smaller instance" then backpedaling when I point out the stats.. lol.. figure it out friendo then let us know

  • feddid.uk ? it has 3.5k users.... and he's posting to lemmy.world? ummmmmm

  • You will never get an answer from the mods of that instance.

    You will never convince them to change anything.

    No amount of public humiliation will make them adhere to their own policies.

    I recommend creating accounts on smaller instances instead. I created my own instance for this reason.

  • Jesus christ I am so sorry.

    Dodged a bullet
