News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

ngl I'd like to see both sides of that conversation ๐

Ask and ye shall receive! ๐
Maybe I just come across really aggressively or something and I'm completely oblivious to it, somehow? ๐คทโโ๏ธ I dunno... I feel like any time I just try to participate in whatever random conversation I stumble across that interests me on here and have the audacity to disagree even slightly with someone, it's like they just suddenly go from 0 to absolute fucking bell end instantly.
I am genuinely trying to be as polite as possible, tried to demonstrate my willingness to acknowledge being wrong in the face of evidence if given some, and didn't even call his mom a cunt or anything (as far asI I'm aware lol)... I mean, shit, sometimes I just like playing Devil's advocate for the hell of it, regardless of whatever my personal feelings regarding "X topic" may be. Maybe that's why I don't get the whole sudden aggression when faced with even the smallest hint of dissension at all times!
You were definitely the aggressor in this situation, yes.
This was the instigating comment.
Have a read from the start until that comment, and I'm sure you can tell the mood switch you brought to the table with that comment.
I'm not blaming you. Sometimes we read into things. Interpret things that aren't being said. Maybe that's what happened to you here. Sometimes it happens.
โค๏ธ I'd go back and apologize to that person, for calling them illiterate and stupid etc.
Have a good one, buddy!
