1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

This is most often used against people asking in good faith in my experience than those who just want to troll people. In this case, the sealion is actually being perfectly acceptable, the first person doesn't get to slander a group of people without defending their slander to said group of people.
I identify but I'd like to believe I'm not just 'barging into people's homes' and being disruptive since this is an online discussion space. 😅
You were asking a lot of questions in one comment. I think, just based on way too much experience as a shitposter, that you'll have better luck if you ask one or two, add some filler text to show investment, and then wait for an answer.
My fingers just type almost as fast as the thoughts come by, that's all. I wasn't really planning for anything besides giving an honest reply, lol.
Self-editing is other-care. Don't dump your adult-level responsibilities on the community. Do your own tailoring, admitted "argumentative" book club cultist. 🤌🏼 Now, fuck off.
Trust me, everything I said was what I meant and if I feel something needs correcting and I catch it I do it. And there's no need for this reaction...
