Comment on Inconceivable Horror
DarkCloud@lemmy.world 3 months agoI don’t think you should be so offended or angry that someone dislikes Musk/Twitter and leaves a teo word comment.
It’s Musk’s controversial politics that makes people react to him with negative comments at anything even vaguely associated with him. I wouldn’t adopt his problems as your own, and I think it would be healthier to just go “yeah, his criticized everywhere because of the dumb shit he says on his main account, that makes sense” (and on that other account where he pretended to be a little kid, which was weird).
But it makes sense people object to the objectionable.
I’m just saying don’t let him take up too much of your life if it’s his objectionable nature that causes people to react even when/where you don’t personally see it as being relevant enough to warrant it.

The closest “his problems” have to do with me is I’m sick of hearing every other human on earth be obsessed with him, love him or hate him they can’t not talk about him. I’ve never had a twitter, I’ve never had a Tesla, I’ve never ridden a Spacex rocket, I’m sick of hearing about it.
I do like cool octopi though, but I can’t even escape hearing about him even on a post about cool octopi. I’ve probably been boycotting twitter longer than you crusaders by virtue of literally never signing up for one, and yet I’m granted no respite from the crusade that can’t just let people enjoy things because “it was posted
in the wrong neighborhoodto the wrong website god knows how long ago, gotta evangelize my disdain for some rich african schmuck!”Sure criticize him for his posts because of his main acct, ok, and I’m then to assume this is Elon posting directly through one of his known alts, that’s how he’s at all relevant to this cool ass octopus? If so, sure, my mistake. If not, I’m still of the opinion both that he’s not relevant, and that said irrelevance might be the cause of some of them there downvotes, to bring it back to my original hypothesis.
Anger nothing, annoyance at best, like an overplayed song you never even liked that you’re sick of hearing again. He takes up none of my life, if all of a sudden everyone just stopped constantly playing the song I’d forget it existed in a week. It takes more of my life having to see yet another post praising or hating or even just fucking acknowledging him, and even that only takes a little bit of joy as I’m reminded I can’t do fucking anything without someone referencing him every 45min.
To be clear this is the same exact feeling I have everytime I hear Tommy Twotone’s 867-5309 playing in some store, it’s enough with that shit already!

You’re doing the same thing by perpetuating a conversation about him, and demanding comments that show a dislike of him be downvoted.
Be mature and move on with your life man, rather than making a conversation about him the centre of your existence. It’s embarassing.
You want negative mention of him downvoted because you’re upset to see his name. Sounds like he lives pretty rent free in your head.
Try not to think of the Musk octopus creeping into your dreams you damaged crustacean.

It was thrust upon me by the comment I replied to before I said anything, I did not bring him up, so, “nuh uh.”
Furthermore I demanded nothing, I believe you’ll find I merely proposed a hypothesis as to why the downvotes, which had previously been asked about, were present.
You be mature and move on, why are you arguing with my hypothesis, take your own advice then, dingus.

I don’t care about that being the topic, you claim to be trying to avoid it, but back you came anyways!
