    Where did I shame anyone? I’ve been trying to be polite, I haven’t thrown an insult once. I’ve extended more civility than has been granted to me. Though half of it seems to be residual anger at Reddit.

      You’re asking people to vote for a genocidal warmonger, lmao that’s the insult genius, and it’s beyond a breach of basic civility

        Oh. “Chapo Trap House is aligned with the dirtbag left, a style of contentious left-wing political discourse that eschews civility in favor of casual, blunt, often vulgar expression.”

        Guess I gotta get used to looking all this shit up while browsing. No more browsing Lemmy on my phone. No wonder Egon thought I was doing a bit.

          Civility was invented by The West Wing tv series. Abe Lincoln used to bully his opponents to tears in debates.

      If you asked any of us to vote for genocide in person you would likely end up with spit on your face and maybe a fight on your hands. Don’t ask people to vote for mass murder if you want people to like you.
