The [deleted] is my bad. I keep getting network errors whenever I post (this account is located on lemmy.world which has apparently been receiving some pretty bad network issues lately) and it seems like they go through multiple times or sometimes they do not go through at all. If you think I'm deleting my posts due to errors in my writing, ask yourself why I wouldn't simply just edit my post?
I'm not lecturing you at all. I'm giving my .02 just as you gave yours, I even say that we should just agree to disagree and yet you are trying to end the conversation on "your terms" to seem like "you're right". It is clear you didn't learn anything from this conversation whatsoever, I learned something and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I simply said that I'm going to continue to personally classify these substances based on how the rest of the (experienced) world sees them. No reason to throw a hissy fit.
I don't know what comes off as childish in anything I write as I have given clear and consice information that is accurate. The fact that you are making age such a big deal in this discussion leads me to believe that you are in fact very young considering the fact that children tend to hold age very highly when it comes to "who is right or wrong". Just because someone is in their 80's doesn't mean they know anything more than someone in their 30's (especially in a given topic), the only thing guaranteed is experience.
Admittedly my tone was harsh in the beginning but I lightened up as to ease the conversation, ironically you would benefit from following your own advice as you have kept a harsh tone throughout the conversation.
