I think the xkcd referenced above is relevant to your post.
Above my post? I don't get it. My post is a top-level comment to the main submission. The post above mine is dependent on your client and your sorting selection / preferences, so it'll be different depending on who views this and when.
This is the xkcd they were referring to.

Seems like maybe they assumed that everyone uses the same comment sorting settings that they do.
You have to scroll up from this post, because that one is witty and reverent, and yours is down voted to the bottom of the page because it's, well neither of the adjectives that were used prior.
They were just adding their personal anecdote, while also highlighting unequivocally that they are not trying to deny climate change is a thing. It's kinda messed up to put someone down like that just for sharing their thoughts...
So you're saying it's in a different post altogether? I'm super confused. Do all posts and comments have to be reverent? I'm new to Lemmy, didn't realize that was a precondition to posting.
