I’ve run into some pretty fucking stupid people here
I’d much rather have /s than comments that start with, or just say:
This.
Absolutely annihilates my patience towards humanity.
This.
This.
Well, we certainly didn’t leave that signature sense of superiority behind.
Honestly, that’s so much worse here… The atheist posts are making me cringe pretty hard. I’m am atheist, so that’s saying something.
It’s like we got the best, and the worst, from Reddit.
People who need tone indicators aren’t stupid
Correct. They’re merely cognitively insufficient to successfully model the minds of the people they talk to.
Neurodivergent people exist, and they deserve respect too.
Not only neurodivergent people need the “/s”. Not all subtle speech cues are easily transmitted through text.
This is some solid grade A pandering. You’re aware there’s no karma to farm, right?
“This website that I and others like me decided to migrate to is much better than the place I left. That must mean everyone who decided to come here is super smart!”
Don’t get so full of yourself that you burst.
I find /s helpful :(
In a world where the most outlandish opinions are often genuine, it definitely helps to have a sarcasm indicator.
