MODERATORS
Bro I live in America and your vague-ass post is the first I've heard of this. I guess I live under a rock, idk, but you don't have to act like an asshole to people who have no idea what you're talking about.
I’m not acting like an asshike. I’m just tired of hiding peoples hands and guiding them to a point. For fucks sake. If they don’t know what’s happening or what the pair is about, they can move on. I don’t go making fun of people and being an asshole to others when they pair shit I don’t understand.
Believe it or not, complaining about "handholding" people who just haven't looked at the news yet today and happened to stumble across your post first, sounds a lot like being an asshole.
Yet it’s not being an asshole to comment on a post complaining that you don’t understand it?
There a fuckton of shit posted on lemmy I don’t understand. Linux shit. Cybersecurity shit. Anime shit…. You’ve know what I do?
I move past it. It’s not for me. I don’t need to understand it and indont act like an asshole to the authors of these posts that I don’t get it.
I’m not entitled to understand everything I consume. So how about you go complain to the kids that believe energy. They read needs to be undershot and direly written and formatted for their abject understanding.
You can bet I won’t ever post to this community again though. So congrats- touve helped to curate the content in your little walled garden.
