You’re wrongly interpreting the person you’re arguing with as saying something you disagree with.

But he admited he was being sarcastic in that part of this post. So in one post, he is sarcastic in the first part, not sarcastic in the last part. Is that really the way to do sarcasm?

So since he didn't but the "/s", which he admitted to, and was sarcastic in the first part, but not the second half, the is it so hard to understand that someone may not think he was being clear?

That doesn't make me "not arguing in good faith," It's me misunderstanding because of the we worded things--which he admitted to.

I haven't tried to "nail them to the wall" at all.

so I don't understand why you are going on and on. Move on already.

In fact, it’s so obvious that people probably think it’s more likely that you’re trolling

Let's fucking think about this: Would trolling really be me misunderstanding someones fucking sarcasm? Do you think that's the definition of trolling?! come on...

Because Lemmy doesn't care about the content of the article, they just care who's posting it. If they think that person is not "one of them," then they downvote it regardless of content. Often times, before reading an article, they'll click the users post history just to see if they should like the person or not.

Basically Lemmy doing exactly what they accuse Republicans of doing. lol

?

probably reflects the fact that onlookers don’t believe you are arguing in good faith.

That doesn't concern me. Just because Lemmy doesn't believe something I say, doesn't make it false.

i t should act as a wake-up call to you

Why don't you tell me what I have said that seems to be not in good faith that I should wake up to.

Yep.

Why not just have Mrs McMahon do it?

I'd totally pay to watch that!

because u got called out

yep

Correct. Information is key.

riiight.

Maybe it’s high time we try to get to their level to fight them using their same tactics?

Ok, so how would you feel if conservatives teamed up and started to take over lib communites. Would you be ok with that?

Cm0002 is doing you can always block his or her posts and move on with your life posting what YOU think should be posted

Oh I do. Just because I noted it, doesn't mean I am THAT bothered by it. I was just pointing out the hypocrisy of it. But I post to plenty of other places and will continue to do so. If he takes over the sub, then I'll just stop posting there and create other communites.

2 week old account. typical hypocrite.

So is there a time limit on when we should start posting? I didn't see that in any Lemmy TOS. You realize that everyone who just created a Lemmy account....just created a Lemmy account. Right?

And Trump is the US President, not a führer. Sad that you don't know what the difference is.

Good grief, I was not making fun of them

Ok, then clarify.

And tho you may really like to watch upvotes/downvotes, I don't care about them. So you were being "sarcastic" when talking about the people who are on social security, yet in the same comment you weren't being sarcastic when talking about current workers.

Is that what you are trying to get me to believe?

So were you or were you not making fun of people on social security? Who, by the way, aren't all old. Clarify.

because they couldn’t find a better job elsewhere? I guess just fuck them, or something.

But did you pretty much say "just fuck them," to a different group of people when you said, "Yeah, the people who are no longer working and who probably can’t find a job even if they wanted to should just establish their own retirement fund now. Presumably with all that money they pull from the magical money tree."

Sounds like you are all for certain groups of people getting fucked over, but not others.

How about NO ONE get fucked over. That'd be better.

Just like Luigi, what she did is wrong and she should face the full legal consequences. Luigi is no hero, and neither is she.

I planned ahead for layoffs for every fucking job I had, before I retired. I don't trust management from anywhere. I don't know why Fed workers would feel any different.

And I also don't feel any more sorry for them than anyone else. Non workers get laid off all the time and Lemmy doesn't seem to care that much about them.

Hmmm... maybe the fed workers can "learn to code."

Why the fuck haven’t people started learning to plan ahead yet?

What do you mean? Maybe you can clarify?

Trump had less than 20% of americans vote for him and his approval rating is constantly shit.

And yet he won. Hmmm...

Guess you don't know how American elections work since you aren't even American.

Sounds like you deserve downvotes

How so?

I think it’s best to place them where they are earned, not just blindly downvote every post based on the user.

Agreed.
