This is further proof that for every statement made, no matter how whimsical, there exists at least one person online who will tell you that you're wrong.
-The Earth revolves around the sun.
-Ackchyually, they all revolve around the galactic center...
-Godzilla floats by increasing his volume.
-Ackchyualllllly, his volume doesn't increase because lungs are on the outside... (Wtf?!)
-Cotton candy is my favorite fair food.
-Ackkkkkkchyualllllllllly, my review of the last three years of your comment history proves your favorite fair food is not, in fact, cotton candy. I have gathered and will prove this with ten points. Point one: your childhood experience with Geoffrey the Giraffe suggests...
Whimsical or not, there was a scientific misconception used in the statement, that I myself used to have as well. My only goal was to help dispel the misconception. Usually, Lemmy is quite welcoming to correction of scientific inconsistencies in sci-fi discussions. Idk what happened in this particular thread, but it went off the rails. All my statement got misconstrued and downvoted, despite me engaging in the discussion in good faith and being factually correct. Several people showed up, making incorrect or irrelevant statements and got upvoted.
Like your "lungs are on the outside" comment. Maybe you can explain to me, why am I being antagonized and intentionally misunderstood? Obviously I didn't mean that lungs are on the outside, context matters. And I explained the context in another comment.
