Except I am careful with this. It would be a valid criticism if the opinion I don't like wasn't "lol at rational lib". That is fairly described as an NPC opinion, unless you care to help justify it as something deeper. Rationality is not concession, bad opinions should be called out as such. And by the way, it's not just people I disagree with - after all, this whole thread is me criticizing people who agree with me that billionaire wealth is out of control for choosing shitty argument tactics.
The only people who use the term “NPC” or “normie” are those who realize they aren’t special, and detest that fact. That you’ve used those terms, and have called yourself “rational lib”, tells me you’re male, lonely, and dealing with subconscious feelings of inadequacy that you can only deal with by dehumanizing other people.
I’m sorry I made fun of you, and I hope you end up getting help.
Don't be sorry, be self-aware. You can look up my comment history, I don't use this kind of language with everyone, but when in Trollistan, I speak troll.
As far as the Dr. Phil stuff, you're describing a typical Lemmy user. Of course I'm male, only had about 98% odds with that one. Am I lonely? Occasionally, but less than most. Not that there's anything wrong with being lonely, which is a very common emotion even among popular people. Subconscious feelings of inadequacy are references to psychoanalytic concepts that have long since been debunked. Dehumanizing? Quite the opposite. I'm trying to persuade the online masses to free themselves from the automated thought process of ideology.
All I have to say is yikes, dude. Just... yikes.
This whole conversation in a nutshell
"I'm very careful about who I dehumanize so it's okay."
The who pronoun is entirely inappropriate here
