    It’s fine, points and internet strangers don’t matter as much as they’d like too. We can still have a nuanced discussion, you just need to ignore the people who feed off their internet addiction to outrage and thinking clicking a thumbs down on a keyboard fulfills their social duties. I didn’t notice the underage part which is clearly problematic and changes the discussion and yes we need a society that discourages this type of behavior.

      That happens, not a big deal but you can’t really complain about internet outrage addicts and lack of nuance when you’re the one who rushed into a thread without even taking enough time to properly understand the headline let alone read the article and immediately tried to correct someone who was objectively right.

        Okay I’ll be more careful next time. I don’t spend a lot of time here and it’s usually on the fly. I don’t mind lurking more given how some people wrote like a five page rebuttal.

        Put the phone down, go do something for someone you love dammit.
