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 !uspolitics@lemmy.world
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.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

To paraphrase:
then literal quote:
...No positive intentions detected. Maybe something was buried in this drivel somewhere but it's overridden entirely by everything else you wrote. You cannot expect anyone to actually read that shit. You may has well as wrote above it "judgemental uninformed bullshit ahead! do not read this!".
The judgement and self righteousness is off the charts in your comments. You are the one who needs to keep in mind you're wrong.
Maybe I was a bit abrasive, but not from the get go, and I've certainly been more polite and less personally insulting than you. You just feel like your reaction is warranted because you feel personally called out, but (besides personal comparisons like "I'm guessing I have experienced more diverse things than you"... but I even said you have a brain, come on now) I didn't do that, I spoke in general terms. Avoid alcohol, and other intoxicants for they dull your mind and impair your judgement, and if they become a habit, they'll impede your development and corrupt your character. And this goes for everyone, myself included. Whether we succeed at it or not is a different conversation that has everything to do with individual skill and nothing to do with the positive and negative aspects of booze/intoxicants. That's all. ✌️
Because I read enough of what you wrote to see it fits a larger pattern of toxic ideology. Not because I "feel personally called out". Do you really think I care about what some single weirdo thinks about me drinking a beer? The part everyone takes issue with is that other psychopaths think like you do and it needs to stop. Talk about the health risks of alcohol, no one is going to get annoyed. Moralize like a shithead, 99% of people will hate you and your "message" changes into "yep another crazy person thinks like this 🤦 ".
Like I said earlier ITT, (paraphrasing but I think it's my first reply to the alcohol comment) "if you don't talk about cirrhosis they won't change their ways, because they don't believe in social responsibility". But that's not enough for me, people need to remember it comes with social risks (not just personal health ones) and when you engage in it you're welcoming them, and that's a personal decision that has to be judged (if not by them, by someone who's sane and sees things for what they are regardless of how they feel about it).
And regarding the "moralising": be glad someone does it regardless of (and somewhat motivated by) the negativity. We both know morals are sorely forgotten in many communities.
lol dude. The fact that you put moralizing in quotes as if it's not even a real thing is 🤌
If everyone hates your delivery, you can be rest assured you're not reaching anyone. Which I suspect is the last thing you want to do. ALL of this is about making yourself feel righteous. Too bad you'll be "righteous" but also unrelatable and alone.
You seemed engaged enough. I'll see you around, detective. 😉
Doesn't take an investigation to spot an uninformed judgemental hypocrite.
