I never said I was going to feed the item to my cat. I said I was giving my aunt an item so she would be satisfied. Does that make sense?
stinky
you're too sensitive if people asking for help looks like trolling to you. It's kind of offensive, to be honest. I'm embarrassing myself by admitting that I don't know what this thing is, and asking strangers for help, and you're telling me I look like a troll? Trolls are someone who invite discussion to be hurtful. That's awful.
Your position is that Lemmy is immune to the following: company creates an account on Lemmy, spams communities with low effort content (possibly created by AI or automated processes), attracts viewers, then sells the account to another company as part of an advertising campaign. This position can be defeated if the above happens even one time. I'm refusing to debate you on this not because you're infallibly correct, but because it's not worth the investment of time. Any idiot can see it's an indefensible position. Have a day. 🫱
Thank you so much. People are so hurtful here. I appreciate the response, and I agree with you: "I'm helping" is an excuse that can be used to justify bad behavior, such as privacy violations (figuring out what someone else needs), forced compliance (give me something to make me happy or I'll argue at you) or short-term validation. It's a convenient flag to throw when someone gets hurt and you don't want to feel bad about it. I'm so tired.
