I became so exhausted from the toxicity on Lemmy that I began searching for alternatives, and I stopped trying to argue in the comments. This leads me to wonder: am I the only one who is feeling this way?

    This just popped up on my feed and I was like “Wait didn’t I just see you over there?” Yup, this is the same person who posted in !unpopularopinion@lemmy.world and now is upset that their opinion is… unpopular.

    They may even be talking about my comment, who knows. They very glibly gave the (unpopular) opinion that Most people in the modern age can live without a car, but they are too lazy to do it. and are now upset that people (like me) are saying there may be some nuance to that and maybe it’s not so simple. Most people didn’t even disagree, but said that there is more too it than just “laziness”. Maybe, OP, just hear me out, but maybe our points are worth listening to rather than just saying we’re being toxic?

      Nuance? Meaning not 0 or 1, dark or light, good or evil? Nuance? How DARE you? Just who do you…

      You know what…that’s as much sarcastic indignation as I can muster, have a good one neighbor.
