Everybody privately shit-talks everybody. The phone always listens to it and records it. A viral hack that turns all this shit-talking into texts. Everybody in the world suddenly gets a thousand shit-talking texts from their family, friends and associates. Society dissolves.

    Your criticisms are very weak. Sorry.

    Instead of looking for ways to defeat me you should just go with it. For example you could consider what the societal upheaval would look like. How would we recover. What growth would it inspire etc.

    I mean, really. What difference to my point would 99% shit-talkers vs 100% make?

      No one is looking to “defeat” you.

      Accepting and internalising it when someone explains you’re wrong about something, results in two people being right about something, not a “winner” and a “loser”.

      Changing your mind is not losing.

      We can still have a discussion about your hypothetical, after.

      But you’ve walked in with a bunch of fallacies and in response to having them corrected, turned so abrasive, that your behaviour and world view is now the only thing anyone is interested in talking about.

        Look how you’ve sweetened. A minute ago it was accusations of edgelordyness, antisocialness and unethicality. Hot and cold.

        What is your point, in a nutshell?

          Or… two clearly different people?

          You’re not very smart, are you? 😂

          Your shower thought is edgelord cringe and the fact that you can’t swallow that hit to your ego is, well, yeah. We see you.

                  Yeah, I use it as a sort of block filter staging area.

                  A reminder of why I should block them if they match their label later.

                  Or, to keep things not negative all the time, I have a ton of users tagged simply “yes” if they were funny, provided good help, or were generally pleasant to interact with :)
