Funny, because if I was trapped alone in a forest and had to chose between spending time with someone who posts shit like this and a bear in both cases Id probably run away screaming.

[–] Zacryon@lemmy.wtf 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Great idea! That way you are making it easy for the bear to find you, distracting from the other person and thereby helping them to get out. As a bonus, we will have one less human like you on the planet.

You know what, your wishing harm towards me and I havent had any messages from bears either!

Obvious ragebait is obvious.

Ironic, coming from someone who defends people who say that she should get raped.

I'm not wishing harm towards you. I am just happy if there are less people with mindsets like yours.

[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I never said that.

I pointed out that someone was making obviously exaggerated language to make a joke. In the same manner that the poster in the picture is fully aware that she cannot be messaged by actual bears.

It wasnt a terribly funny joke (either of them) but it was obviously a joke.

[–] Zacryon@lemmy.wtf 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

I never said that.

You did not say that she should get raped. That's correct. You misread my text, if that's what you understood. You are just defending people, who say that she should get raped. Isn't much better imo.

However, I replied to that in the other comment. Don't think it's funny. And regarding the one you're defending, it's not clear to me whether that's truly a "joke" given the context of the preceding text. Let's continue that there.

Edit: BTW, if you think both are jokes, then why are you getting so upset about it, that you say: "if I [...] had to chose between spending time with someone who posts shit like this and a bear in both cases Id probably run away screaming"?

Edit: Added a quote and said something about it.

You replied wishing them harm. You're the person we need less of.

Edit: They edited their post to reduce their hatespeech.

[–] Zacryon@lemmy.wtf 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

I did not wish them harm. I detailed how their behaviour could lead to a deadly end inflicted by the bear and noted that I am happy if there are less people with such mindsets. Whether they die or not is not important for the latter.

But I understand that my chosen words can make such a misleading impression as the important details are more fine-grained and left open for interpretation to the reader.

Sorry for that.

To clarify:
I don't really wish anyone harm. I am just sick of people who think there are justifications for raping people or doing some other unethical shit.
That's what formed the basis for my sarcastic comment.
This doesn't mean that anyone should get killed for thinking that way. But, I hope that such people will realize that this is not a reaction tolerable in a civilised and peaceful modern community, leading to a change in their mindset.

I don't know whether your "EDIT" note is about my comment or the other one from the othe person. In case it's about mine, I did not edit it, as should be visible depending on your Lemmy client.

BTW: I find it sad that you just criticise me for the impression I would wish someone harm, but not also the other one who wished for someone to get raped. Doesn't seem very consistent to me.

One would kill me

The other would drive me to kill myself
