    Ahh I see you don’t understand, I’ll explain. See an actual considerate human would just say “that’s actually not the base model” or whatever you were complaining about, instead you chose to be rude and top it off with a cringe ass “be better”, the go to response for someone who thinks they’ve got the moral high ground but don’t wanna put any sort of discussion into it.

    You’re like the 2024 version of man-bun yoga hipsters, be better

    No, kindly don’t tell me what I’m saying. I’m playing devil’s advocate to your comment which said “it actually doesn’t explain anything”, I’m saying why that statement has no weight behind it.

    And who’s deciding what’s too literal here? You? From where I’m standing it seems like you just didn’t like me disagreeing with you. If I’m being too literal may I suggest you’re possibly being too emotional and holistic?

    Perhaps separate your feelings on the woman and what she’s done and look at evidence for possibilities rather than lashing out with a simple absolute like “Sad reality is she is just a nasty, hateful person.”

    Devils advocate, ignoring possible outside factors for behavioural changes is also a disservice to acknowledging how prevalent bigotry is, black mould of course over long term exposure would most likely just cause confusion and memory loss, but lead? Lead will fuck your brain right up and send you down all sorts of nasty paths.

    Of course she may just be this way, but again, if there is even the possibility for an environmental factor causing degradation into this mindset for a large percentage of the population, it must be addressed or at least considered









  • So I think I know what you’re talking about, but I don’t think having hobbies is the issue here.

    You do see this a lot when guys are talking and someone brings up a sort of niche hobby (tech, fan bases, something that requires a lot of knowledge)

    Guys will all show interest but not want to be talked down to or mansplained to on a topic they’re passionate about (yes ladies we experience it too)so they overcorrect and try to prove their knowledge real fast.

    This sometimes leads to a sort of feedback loop where the other person thinks they’re trying to one up them and tries to be the more knowledgeable one and on and on, I’ve seen so many guys do this, that’s why I avoid talking about hobbies with IRL friends (looking at you RuneScape)
