I'm giving the name of a process. When someone asks for the title of a book, I don't start with Guttenberg's printing press.

You weren't asked for anything, and this certainly isn't the equivalent of book titles and the tools to make them.

It's more like interrupting a discussion about someone who was just shot dead by police to say, "yeah, it's called being shot", then getting all pissy when someone tells you that actually, the broader issue is police brutality in general.

Do you commonly criticize comments that don't issue a historical paper on the background of a meme?

Do you commonly interpret criticism as a request for a thorough academic study?

[-] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net -2 points 2 months ago

Only if it's that kind of smartypants criticism.

If that seems "smartypants" to you, your intellectual standards are set pretty damn low.

Mixing up cause and effect isn't some minor goof. It's the difference between eating bread and eating fire.

I'd appreciate it if you didn't insult me. The smartypants part was that you "um-actually"d me. Not that you stated something too "intellectual".

I never said "that's because of enshittification". I said "that's enshittification". My statement didn't contain any description of causal effects.
