I can’t act like I do irl on this site because everyone hates it. Like, even when I’m asking for clarification, people think i’m trying to start a flame war.

I’m just a curious person, and when something seems weird or off, I call it out. Is that not allowed?

Yea, I hope people in general understand that

There is just this idea that traditional arguments have any value, which in most cases, they don’t. Both sides are just barking at each other and both sides are afraid of being wrong, so they never surrender. You can’t convince someone they’re wrong, you can only persuade them to accept that you’re right. But that’s their choice. And placing significance in what others do rather than what you have control over ends up with frustration.

I disengage from any places that I don’t have any real power in, because it’s fruitless to indulge in something I have no control over.
