Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

@aiccount This is one of those cases where even if you're right, you're being kind of a dick about it, and that by itself is enough for many people (maybe most) to reject the rest, just because no one wants to agree with a dick.
Your claims may be true, but they're here unfounded, which for most others is indistinguishable from just making shit up to try to support a flimsy thesis. Paired with your dickish tone, it will sound like bullshit to many people.
Unless that was your goal, this fails.
I responded to dickish tones with dickish tone. If that is the only tone some people can understand, then that's what I'll try giving them. It should be made abundantly clear that people who constantly use technology in every aspect of their life being openly anti-technology are fools. It shouldn't be somehow accepted that living in blatant hypocrisy is cool.
@aiccount Then you need to grow up.
Some lessons need to be learned the hard way, and this is an example.
Right now, today, I am blocking you -- forever. I will never see or hear anything you have to say, about anything, ever again, because I don't consider it worth the irritation. Nothing you say is unique, and it's needlessly abrasive.
You cannot change this result. But you can prevent it from happening to you again, by changing your ways.
The choice is yours. Good luck. And goodbye.
Yeah, just what you need, an even more closed of echo chamber always telling you that you are a genius for being willfully ignorant. You are just increasing your problem.
