So much here that I need to do it bit by bit.
would you speak to people at work that way? telling someone to "Grow the fuck up" and calling them a cuck or whatever slanderous term is indeed attacking that person,
Perhaps I did need to explain after all.
"Grow the fuck up" means "You're bringing this up here like some child who is parroting what he's heard elsewhere without understanding when or why". It's addressing the validity of the idea, not the person.
"You're cucked by CEOs" means "You're placing blame in the wrong place here and ignoring where blame belongs because what you're blaming is entirely irrelevant". Again, addressing the validity of the idea, not the person.
I'll say it
again because I'm not just saying it for the fun of it: FunkMiller didn't say to never say it, he said to save it for when it was actually relevant. You keep ignoring that point and it's the point that sums up the entire post.
even if it is "their argument" Why could they not simply disagree, I'm sorry but what you are defending isn't even how friends and family talk to each other,
lmao what the fuck, duck? They're neither friends nor family, mate. This isn't Christmas dinner. I used the term "Public forum" for a reason.
you are defending it purely because you don't want people to say something is woke,
Jesus fuck you just don't read my posts, do you? Don't say you want adult discourse then tap tap tap the keyboard without reading what you're replying to. Civil adult discourse doesn't usually involve telling people what they believe either, especially when it's unfounded. That's pulling ideas out of your arse and will get you nowhere.
if he thinks shoes that are green are woke then who the fuck cares, it's his opinion? He could literally think everything is woke and you'd live to see another day i promise.
And if he continually asserts that green shoes are woke all over the place I guarantee the following will happen:
1. People will think it's a joke because it's ridiculous
2. People will get sick of seeing it
3. People will tell him to shut the fuck up
well if you don't believe it would of been derailed then why didn't you and others respond in a manner in order to get the user to clarify? instead we resort to childish name calling and anger? is that really how we want things to divolve on here?
I didn't do it at the time because I wasn't in the thread at the time. What the fuck do you want from me? I responded to him at the same time I responded to you. Again, you seem to be unwilling or unable to read my posts because if you did read them you'd have answers to every question you asked here.
i never said the mods are the only ones who can say anything
Don't bring up mods as the sole arbiters then.
and why are you taking some form of defense , there's no arguments it's just simple logic, the moderators moderate the forum, you can report something you don't like and the moderators will either moderate or leave it be, this isn't some argument, this is just literally what happens.
And as I
just told you, there is more to both forums and societies than the binary sort of rule breaking and not. This is comment #3 that makes me think you're unwilling or unable to read what I'm saying.
if you don't like that is what happens on a forum then i have some bad news for you.
Stuey, if you don't like what happens on a forum sometimes, or in life for that matter, then I have some bad news for you.
the matter of fact is that the response to a stupid throw away comment was a bit ridiculous. just simply say you disagree or ignore the person,
You could have also just ignored the person, but
you chose not to. Whatever brain events caused you to not ignore it are the same brain events that made others not ignore it. Do you not see the irony in what you're saying?
that's how adults navigate the world.
I don't know which adults you know, but believe you me that's not how the world works.
