“Win an argument online”
The edible paste market must be booming.
The only arguments you win are the ones you don’t participate in. Internet arguments are a race to the bottom of who can waste the least time.
Look at this someone who thinks you can win an argument on the internet.
I think i win when the other person starts resorting to insults at least

Bell end.
On the right
I suppose a subjective win is still a win, I suppose.
Ooh, looks like someone lost an argument and is now downvoting me for it…
Now you have bragging rights
It worked for the Vietnam war and all other U.S. wars since, why can’t we use the same strategy online?
Thats right just keep telling yourself that ;)
More often than not, both feel they won
Yeah exactly, if you are talking about winning an online argument you’ve already lost in many ways
Hey tankies gonna be tankies.
I’m glad we all get the message
I’m reminded of a meme from the early 2000s. keep in mind it was a completely different time.
arguing with someone online is like the special Olympics. you may win but everyone looks retarded.
Tankies announcing they won an argument after they finished making claims without evidence and then deleting the comments of the other person.
How do you delete someone else’s comments? Were you arguing with an admin?
Check the Lemmy.ml mod log…
I remember when the queen came round to congratulate me on my upvote score, and it added £1000 to my bank account and everyone went around saying “look there they are, wow”. But it was all ruined the day the Fire nation attacked.
You’re really gonna let the world make you care about grumpy little arrow clicks? It diminishes us to even think about it. Each person is a being of pure chaos at the infinite center of creation. You are cosmic, made of stardust and in ways beyond words profound.
Besides, there’s no user karma on this site.
I love the downvote you got for that. The one lonely little downvote. There’s something poetic about it.
Now it’s gone…
At last, 🧑🔬 funny haters
It’s not that i care. It’s just weird randomly seeing a lot of my benign comments at 0 upvotes. I can only then wonder how petty one must be to take their time to go through the effort
i never look at the total score, one of the many horrible reddit features, plus i remove my automatic upvote
Really depends on what they use and how far back they went on you
Like I’ve said elsewhere I do this to people posting insane or false bullshit that are clearly spamming it, if you’re taking a shit or whatever and on Voyager you can click someone’s name and swipe slightly to downvote, can get through over a hundred comments in one shit if you don’t pay any attention to the content and just swipe, I bet
I’m on voyager and i have an irrational fear of downvoting something when I swipe to go back out of a comments section
I love it when i see a bunch of new downvotes in my history after an argument because i count every single one is a tear shed by my opponent
But why even look at that? Who cares?
Well the way i navigate thru conversations I’m having currently brings me to my history since i’m usually having more than one at a time an i need to know who’s replying to what. When one of those is an argument, noticing a bunch of single downvotes while passing thru my history causes air to erupt from my nose because it proves to me that someone I’ve got beef with is definitely malding.
The points don’t matter but the impotent effort they put in does, get me? It feels as close to a win as you’ll ever get on the 'net
Ah got it, thanks. I have never seen something like that for me and do not care, so would never look for it.
Yes, downvote my month old Star Trek joke. Cry harder.
I mentally multiply all votes by ℹ anyway.
Me here down voting your histo because I don’t like your user name.
Watch it buddy. I don’t fuck around. If i catch you making any spelling mistakes, it’s straight to the slammer right after i brutally shove you to the ground making you struggle for air
Kinna off topic but do you get corrected on your grammar often with that username?
I never make grammar mistakes
Super bold, i think i love you now.
2/2 of your comments ITT are missing periods.
I only enforce the rules not follow them👮😎
Rules for thee
just imagine they’re learning dvorak
Watch it buddy. I don’t fuck around. If i catch you making any spelling mistakes, it’s straight to the slammer right after i brutally shove you to the ground making you struggle for air
As you fail to capitalize two I’s and neglected a period at the end of your statement.
He’s a cop: don’t expect him to actually follow the rules he enforces.
The nice thing about YouTube is that that isn’t possible.
It’s a dumb feature that should be opt-in.
Honestly that just means you won twice
Better than them going through it trying to figure out where you live and what your identity is.
I love it when failed stand up commedians try to troll you, fail, and cry to moderators when you guess who they are irl.
Then they get their podcast cohost to troll you and theu fail even worse.
Imma need more of this story please!
cohost??? the (unfortunately dead) website???
win lol. discourse is about discovery and the search for truth. The most valuable arguments for me are when someone genuinely changes my mind.
Maybe win isn’t the right word. Although you get the point
oh yeah. I only downvote to straight out spam after I report. like buy xyz drugs someplace or shit like that. (kbin had a bad ending)
