Lemmy sometimes feels like one big ball of barely seething social outrage.
Comment on Is this a rope hanging under a helicopter?
Djehngo@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI hate this so much,
Someone is mentioned on Lemmy and there is always a drive by comment saying don’t support X or X is a bad person with no context whatsoever. No mention of what specifically they are accused of doing/saying, no way to figure out if that clashes with your values or not, no documentation etc.
And subjectively it feels like half the time I research why this might be true it’s debatable at best, I assume because if there was compelling evidence the person doing the drive by would have linked it.

So many didn’t grow out of their “I’m so special and unique, I don’t follow the mainstream” teenage phase and it really shows.

I should start replying to random shit with "don't support X" with no context or followup

Also, create a thousand accounts in advance at random days, never use them and make this comment their only, but when account is not fresh. That way it would look like it’s a legitimate reader that was just once so outraged they decided to comment and then shut up forever
