My point is that you should've edited the title if you saw that the content of the article is interesting, but its headline is clearly antagonistic. There is no reason to adopt the author's callousness.

How you believe that starting off a conversation by implying that people who disagree with you are "nuts", even if it's the authors words, won't lead to people taking issue with it, as they should, is odd.

Why not simply acknowledge that there is a better way to have these conversations, that we could all learn and move forward and stop antagonising each other instead of doubling down on defending this?

What you are currently doing to Yogthos is a known nasty troll tactic called tone policing.

For clarity for the rest of the people in thread, Tone policing is a tactic to dismiss the ideas being communicated and is aimed at the tone of a disagreement, instead of looking at the facts or logic of the content.

Do better, NotMushroomForDebate.

Tone policing is something that is applicable to certain contexts where it is used to suppress criticisms of oppressive systems. I am more than familiar with tone policing, coming from a marginalised community myself. Applying the term to something like the conversation here does nothing but dilute its meaning.

I doubt you are familiar with this. Otherwise, you will know full well how annoyingly painful is for chuds/liberals to dismiss your main arguments and go for "Awww YoUr X words Offend mE". Also, it is ironic that you are doing it to others when you "say" that you are from a marginalized community.

Applying the term to something like the conversation here does nothing but dilute its meaning.

On the contrary, it applies perfectly to this context without any dilution. Well, just like the saying goes, when education is not liberating the dream of the oppressed is to be the oppressor. This phrase fits you perfectly.

If you're going to be doubting someone's experience, assuming intentions, and implying that conversations surrounding oppression and disagreements over technological implementations are comparable in this sense, then there is no room for conversation here.

You expressed yourself so clearly throughout this thread that your intent is to be a manipulative troll that loves being dismissive and I called you out for it. You could have actually produce a better conversation throughout this thread but chose to resort to some petty trolling. Shameful...
