I'm serious. Specially, the community - you folks, no matter the instance, you rock. You're amazing.
In Reddit it's always a struggle to word your posts/comments in a way that it won't trigger
- unwarranted assumptions popping out of nowhere
- "I dun unrurrstand" meaning "I disagree but I'm pretending that you aren't following any logic"
- "You're saying that because..." [insert insane troll logic] everywhere
- "U think dat 50 is not 100? Than u think 50 is 0! Dats stupid lol" tier oversimplifications all the fucking time.
- insert random distortion of what you said, either due to malice or stupidity
Here though? People actually disagree with each other on rational = human grounds. They aren't attacking each other, they're agreeing or disagreeing with what is said!
It's specially noteworthy that even Lemmygrad's community specifically tailored for Leftist infighting is more wholesome than non-discussion subreddits. Like, it's a server made for people with strong political opinions, a community made to let them fight, and yet they can reason better than Reddit.
Please keep being awesome.
By "that", do you mean the struggle to work around disingenuous/dumb posters, or do you mean polite disagreements?
Mainly the "unwarranted assumptions" bullet point. I mentioned in a comment here how reddit helped pull me to the left, politically, and someone responded with something like "so if it weren't for a reddit you'd be a nazi?"
