Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I downvote jokes that punch down on marginalized groups for sure.
There's ways to shitpost that don't exclude everyone that isn't cis male and white.
Not at all what I was talking about.
Just having a conversation with you!
Yeah, sorry. Didn't mean to snap. There's a lot of people spewing hate and then hiding behind the "just a joke" excuse, and I didn't like what I saw as an implication that I'm one of those.
And looking at the timestamp, it was right between me waking up and before getting my first coffee - my most vulnerable time =D
Oh I totally get it! Yeah I was expanding on your comment, definitely not accusing you of being one of those shitheads who punch down :)
No worries at all
No, you're injecting your political agenda of oppressed vs oppressor into someone else's random comment that has nothing to do with that.
Yeah totally out of left field to have a conversation on an internet forum specifically for conversations and social interactions about specific topics.
I am the OP of this thread.
Well you answered your own question then. Delete the thread.
Klear and myself are allowed to have a conversation. We don’t need your permission.
I upvote many of your comments, but you are in fact often ~~cranky~~ touchy with people on here. This here is kind of a thin skinned comment you are making. No one has their fingers up your butt.
edited for accuracy
cranky is entirely subjective evaluation. that says more about your own feelings, than mine.
and you are welcome to interpret my words anyway you wish. and i'm welcome to think your interpretations are wrong.
from where i stand the comment i was replying to was the thin skinned ' i want to be offended' variety, but perhaps due to politics you don't see it that way. i am no ideological and i do not see any particular political ideology as 'correct' or 'good', which makes me inherently awful to those who think their ideology is the only valid one, regardless of what it even is.
i mean i get it, people just other people to validate them and agree with them and the hate anything that isn't that. but not all of us are wired that way or seeking that here. some of us understand people are different and that's OK and subjectivity is normal.
Ah, you are right, cranky is inaccurate. Corrected.
cool, keep interpreting me however you like. I'm not here to convince you, or anyone, of anything.
So your stance is to defend the oppressors. Bold move Cotton.
Are you that paranoid about women having conversations without your permission that you’re inventing alts for me? Jesus dude, touch grass.
You're all over this thread complaining about people being unnecessarily negative and you come into a conversation between myself and another person to scold ME?
You are the problem you are complaining about.
