So maybe consider channeling that boredom into something productive instead of tearing down something you don't like, that has zero tangible impact on your life.

Anyway, you're right this is not a great interaction, so take 'er easy.

And my level of investment automatically invalidates any point I make right?

You’re acting like their response was ever intended to be a thorough breakdown of your argument and why it’s wrong lol.

All they said was an exaggerated paraphrase of your comment for comedic effect and then wondered how you could get so worked up over this.

Yeah boredom on a slow day at work can't exist.

I totally understand this. Putting way more effort into a comment than I need to because of a slow day at work is exactly what I’m doing rn lol.

But that’s not what’s indicative of you getting worked up. It’s the defensiveness and comments that read as bitterly aggressive.

I'll take my downvotes, but while I agree with the sentiment in this particular comic I have no fucking interest in seeing shitty pizzacake and her no-punchline comics or her army of sycophants here on Lemmy.

I will never understand why some of you insist on bringing the garbage we left Reddit to escape over here to Lemmy. Let pizzacake have her tiny window of microcelebrity on reddit and please spare the rest of us this bullshit.

I’ll raise you one better and do a revision of your original comment.

I’ll take my downvotes… wait no, I probably shouldn’t start a comment off like this because it only shows I’m bitter that people don’t agree with me, let me start again.

While I disagree with the sentiment of @Vespair@lemm.ee’s original comment, I do think that there’s one thing we should be not be bringing over from Reddit. Gatekeeping.

I will never understand why some of you insist on bringing the garbage we left Reddit to escape over here to Lemmy. Let holier-than-thou gatekeeping stay on Reddit. Most if not all of us moved to this platform for its freedom from ads, algorithm manipulations and for more meaningful curation of our online interactions.

We should want this for all people, and that includes the people who post stuff we don’t like. Those people aren’t ruining Lemmy, they’re keeping it diverse, and exercising their right to use a platform that isn’t controlled by a company who is selling their data and manipulating their world view in the interest of those who care about nothing more than consolidating more wealth and power, at the expense of their users. In some cases at the expense of geopolitical stability and people’s actual lives.
