This is clearly fake. If it had really happened at least one person would have called them a slur and downvoted their entire post history, then they would have been permabanned from 7 different subreddits.

You're missing pulling something out of their comment history without any context.

Are we really going to listen to a guy who said this?

Neither the Orion Syndicate nor the Ferengi Alliance are members of the Federation.

Note: I literally picked one at random and feel like I got the best non-sequitur available.

Honestly, I can’t trust anyone who says:

Defaults to int if I'm not mistaken.

Can anyone in their right mind realy trust someone who said this:

Probably even brought out the fresh toilet paper for the loo’s.

[–] SteveXVII@pawb.social 1 points 1 year ago

You're the one to talk. How could I possibly trust someone who says this?

Everybody older than me is old and basicly dead,

[–] TheTetrapod@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This happens on Lemmy as well.

[–] hydrospanner@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Better yet: on Lemmy it doesn't matter if you're right or wrong, support yourself with facts or have someone else do it, admit mistake or not...if what you post isn't in alignment with the overall masses, it's ~~jail~~ downvotes.

You'd think this would only happen on political subjects. But nope, got downvoted today for commenting on Godzilla buoyancy.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, is he buoyant or not?

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Apparently. But the discussion was about how he achieves his buoyancy. But if you'd like to downvote my responses, feel free to pick any comment from my recent history.

If you are attached to whether you’re attracting downvotes or upvotes you are setting yourself for disappointment for no reason. Just say your thing.

[–] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

I agree with you 100%. Have a downvote.

[–] Whirlygirl9@kbin.melroy.org 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If I remember the ancient days correctly, you were supposed to downvote incorrect info so it wouldn't appear at the top? You weren't supposed to downvote if you disagreed but if it was wrong info? Am I hallucinating that?

Yep, it's one of the most annoying thing about the site.

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, good thing Lemmy is so much... better...

[–] Keeponstalin@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I think it is a little bit. People who own up and admit to their mistake shouldn't be downvoted. Everyone makes mistakes, but it's not always easy to admit. That's why sharing sources is important too

Anyone still check on Reddit? It's getting pretty conservative over there.

[–] PopOfAfrica@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Heck, I often find Lemmy too conservative but its nothing as bad as reddit.

[–] TopRamenBinLaden@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have not seen one conservative take on Lemmy that wasn't down voted into oblivion. Lemmy has got some libs and some actual leftists, but I imagine most of the conservative servers have defederated by now.

[–] PopOfAfrica@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Go to literally any politcal subs here. Its just tons of genocide approval and conservative economics
