  I feel this, but more along the line of chosen ignorance rather than actual stupidity. Either a new topic us overwhelming or they worry\fear they’ll get it “wrong”. Also, being from the south, where so much has been politicized, they fear the tribal back lash of thinking for themselves. I don’t know what’s wrong with me, I was never the type to “go with it”.

  All my adult life, his books have been a refuge from (in order of era)

  Conspicuous consumption

  Boomer narcissism

  Yuppies

  Reaganomics …

  Fundamentalism , extreme Christianity

  Class warfare

  White supremacy

  …

  More recently he has laser focused on

  Societal roles

  Nuerodivergence

  Scalding the hell out of Trump and maggats

  He’s literally a moral and ethical compass for many and can reach us when we are young.

  As he and I have aged, he’s literally been a comfort in the way he writes about our actual ghosts snd what haunts us.

  He’s brilliant ,I’m a huge fan can you tell? Cheers

  I’ve loved the thoughtful discourse on Lemmy, I’ve grown weary of seeing news about reddit in the feed. Reddit died long before this last bit, becoming a haven for a particular, ill informed, consensus seeking group.

  Then tonight, I had a reddit moment here on Lemmy where some non socialized, rude, consensus seeking user wanted to snipe and sounded like an over protected , suburban, adolescent boy.

  I haven’t seen one of those here yet and they are the absolute plague of open discourse .

  Please Lemmy, don’t let it go on.

  Maybe we can get the gd bailout for once? Call it payback on their overdue loans?

  This is the issue that’s so hard to see until it is explicit like your example. The time wasted, not spent on things of value is where this type of trolling costs us the most. In world news there were well thought out answers to some asshole who was just giving low quality taunts
