I go there to find things to complain about and report back here so we can rub each other off while we talk about it.

Not necessarily referring to visiting those sites specifically. Just the overall culture that seems to have spread outside Reddit.

Turns out they were female children.

I think many people in the media and celebrities make this same mistake on Twitter. They think other adults are on twitter and they aren't.

That's where "cancel culture" comes from.

There was an actor on Flash that got fired for a joke he made ten years ago. Some "woman" went through his twitter for a decade of posts and found it.

No adult woman has time for that sh!t.

You have to think that maybe you're talking to a 12 year old on these sites.

Me, personally I just let the conversation trail off. Life's too short to try to relate to people who aren't receptive.

If they're engaged and discussing rationally and you can come to an actual common ground then it's good.

I actually made a thread about it recently and was given the same advice I'm giving you now.
Haha! Always been the argumentative type I guess.

Agree though, saying 'right', ' is that so' ,'true' in a non smart alecy way might be the right way to go. At least when you're in the minority, not in a mood to debate, or the other party just won't understand.

Yeah it lures you into "discussions" with people who you'd just laugh at in real life.

It's easy to just say "be yourself" and stick to your values. That is if you have nothing to lose.

My ex-navy vet friend who has his own business can argue and rile up sh-t whenever he wants at the bars we go to. Sometimes a group of hyper libtard peeps would get super mad after overhearing us talk about something political and he'll stand his ground and argue (never physically - but simps have tried to punch him, he just de-escalates or tells them to just fu-k off).

If I'm out with a large group of cnn/liberal morons from work, I dont get involved in political talk because they'll just make my life hell. Its sad.
