Remember on the internet

Everyone else on the internet is just pretending to be smart in real life, you are the only smart one. The point of online discussion it to feel better calling other people stupid for the straw man you placed on them.

I generally assume everyone I meet, even on the internet, knows something I don’t, is an expert on something.

Me too as I love learning. But then when I go on the internet, the above ensues@Tsondru

No. Not all people are like that.

Lots though. Never seen a disagreement online without at least one person assuming the other is stupid or evil@littlepuppywantanewlife

@lynncelestial why would you think that?

lynncelestial · 31-35, F

Because of what I literally said, a day has not gone by in which I see an online disagreement immediately turn into name calling, strawmanning etc. and the odd time two people do have a debate with facts and no name calling
, there will be some intellectually underdeveloped trouble causer referring to the polite discussion as ‘ranting’ or ‘arguing’ @littlepuppywantanewlife
