Sorry was out cutting my grass.

I find that when I find myself getting upset online, I generally need to take a step back and relook at things from a angle of 'generosity' (or whatever you want to think of it as, it is from a book 'braving wilderness'), and think of the most positive way someone could have meant something, and not take it from a knee jerk offended position (unless you know they are a full on propaganda troll, then it is just them trying to rattle me, which I find utterly hilarious).

I didn't mean anything about you at all, nor a handful of posters in that thread.

Im literally just pointing out what I have noticed is a trend here (and any other website with chat feature)

Another way that I might think about looking at what I am saying is consider how many people just browse the thread page (or even just look at the main page feed) that would see this title, vs those that would really jump into a thread and do a deep dive into the individual posts in it. That message that is a lie (as in the propaganda thread misleading people about what that paper found with vaccinated people and the length of time to get over the virus) is in the thread name itself, so if that flashes at the top of the page x number of times, how many people would likely see it, kind of thing.

Hope that makes sense. Anyway you look at it, I am not shitting on you, it is more of a 'the more you know' deal.

No worries man, we are in a very weird time in the internet programming and like that 'bah fah' video shows as clearly as anything I have ever seen, our brains are completely programmable to believe shit we see enough even when we KNOW it is false.

While the generosity (good term imo) is a two-way street, I’m gonna try to plus my end of it. It sucks encountering internal maladaptive scripts, a bit like the flavor of a 9V battery.

My favorite question in troll threads is the 'are you better off now than you were prior to 2020'.

lmao first off, yes.

Second off, this stupid question relies on people to completely forget all of 2020 when Trump ruined the economy with his shit handling of the pandemic (doing stupid shit like ending our national response teams that would have been on the ground day one to find out what was up so we would not have been left guessing for months), and fostering the environment for year long protests (that white nationalist goons used to attack our society) that he thought would help him to get re-elected.
