Which, fair enough. It definitely was sarcastic, low-effort, and unlikely to generate conversation. But just say that instead of lecturing me about fallacies, you know? Lol
damn this is the longest comment chain on this post. thanks for starting the conversation with your mediocre comment :)
In the spirit of longwindedness... I'm reading my comment back a day later, and I apologize for being lecturey. I stand by my point that your comment was defeatist and unproductive, but there are other ways I could have said that. That said, I don't agree with the assumption that your comment was criticizing corporations. It could read that way, but why not just say what you mean?
Some of my most upvoted reddit comments were things like, "Billionaires gonna billionaire" and I realized at some point that was cheap and unoriginal. It's depressing to open a comment thread and find that the top 10-15 comments are jokes and memes.
Anyway, thanks for being open to a dialogue. This is why I feel that Lemmy (for now) is a different experience.
