Abandoned this profile due to lemmy.world’s federation with Threads. I have moved onto feddit.de as they are the only instance I could find defederated from Threads, hexbear, and lemmygrad.
I’m happy with my new home.
Then you come out facts swinging, and despite possessing vastly more knowledge on the subject and presenting factual/cited corrections to their claims, you are the one downvoted because the userbase has already decided the false claim is more fun to believe.
Let them continue to devolve in their cesspool. They can have it… They deserve it…
If I see a comment with an emoji or two, I could care less. If I see a comment that is just agreement and emojis, I downvote the hell out of it.
Just upvote and move on. Don’t clutter up comments with useless emojis. That just suppresses relevant discussion. It’s as useless and dumb as the comments that simply say “This.”
That’s not to say I’m downvoting due to emojis, but rather due to irrelevant discussion. But I will admit if I see a comment that is filled with them (but still has relevant discussion) I downvote because I’d rather not have comments devolve into FB mom quality emoji-laden garbage.
Nothing like someone peaking over your shoulder and seeing you’re browsing r/AnimalPorn…

They are not considered admissible evidence in court (but the criminal justice system still use them to a degree…), and they can be interpreted with intentional bias, so I think it’s fine to share.
One of my psychology professors told me that if you hide something like a sewing needle in your shoe’s insole, you can ever so slightly apply pressure so that the poke causes a physiological spike. They monitor for movement, so it has to be very minute. The goal is to do this on every control question so that they cannot establish a baseline and have to give up.
