Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

MODERATORS
Alternate take: mental illness continues to be widely misunderstood.
I do agree. Are my words somehow offensive or dismissive?
Thanks for asking. Not offensive to me personally just felt like it didn't quite capture what what's going on in my view.
Idk, when I was growing up, add/adhd, dyslexia, asd were unidentified, so I’m trying to learn because i feel I’ve two of the three conditions. I muddle through as best I can.
Same. Autism was only for the most extreme cases as far as I knew and ADHD wasn't diagnosed often. I didn't get diagnosed until I was 40.
Wow. Have things improved since?
Absolutely. Between therapy and meds it has definitely helped me in pretty much every area of my life. It's still challenging but less so.
I’m so happy you got treatment that works for you; in a just society, everyone could.
Too true. Healthcare including mental health care is a right. Nobody should suffer because they lack funds.
When we stop funding death, destruction and climate extinction, we can fund life more abundantly. Yes, I’ma dreamer; it mitigates the nightmare our societies currently fund.
