Well this escalated. Umm so I kinda feel uncomfortable. Itâs a tough day but I didnât read anything nefarious in Bakuâs comment. Itâs a magpie, with a comment to say itâs to distract from the heavier stuff. No big deal. Thereâs plenty of other lighter posts here today for the same reason. Like you said, 17.

You can stop and think about the DTers in here who have stated they have family in the US, and are scared about a Fascist Dictator and his Tech Whore ruling the most powerful country on Earth for (at least) the next four years. Think about what that means for women, LGBTQ+, and POCs, and every person who didnât vote for Cheetolini.
Can you just stop for a second and fucking think about the people here? This place isnât just your echo chamber, itâs for everyone. And considering you havenât stated you have friends or family there that youâre scared for, maybe just wait until tomorrow to shit on US citizens ey?

I can still express my opinion on matters. This place isnât just your echo chamber, either. Diverse viewpoints arenât something that needs to be removed, like you seem to think. Iâll have my opinions, as you, and everybody else does, too. You donât need to like mine, as I donât need to like yours

Never said diverse viewpoints have to be removed, just that calling Seagoon defensive is out of line considering the context, which you seem to just gloss over in favour of being antagonistic towards her. Sheâs not being defensive, sheâs giving context ffs.
Have your opinion, didnât say you canât, but that perhaps you are being downvoted because you obviously lack the nuance and empathy that a day like today calls for.

Well, if thatâs how you feel, I can make sure there wonât be a repeat.
Though, I do wonder if you intentionally misunderstood my original comment, again, just for the sake of getting all uppity, as youâve done so many times in the past đ¤

No need to jump on the defensive again, seagoon. I was answering a question, not attacking your beliefs.
It just came across as patronising thatâs all. Listen, some people are really hurt by what trump has said today. Itâs just best to leave it and move on. Plus it was bloody hot and everybodyâs grumpy.

Oh fuck off with the self deprecating woe-is-me bullshit. Donât play dumb.
What the fuck does âI can make sure there wonât be a repeatâ mean? If your really going to threaten yourself over this, just forget it, Iâm out.

Iâm sorry, I know this is a serious convo but Tech Whore. đ
This needs to go into the next Collins Dictionary as word of the year.
