    This is going to sound incredibly facetious, but I’ve had multiple dozens of people directly thank me for reaching them. I can’t reach everyone, of course, but I know for a fact that I do reach many people, so your assertion that because I can’t seem to reach you that I must not be able to reach anyone is just not true.

    I could absolutely be better at reaching people, of course I could, but I also know that different strategies work for different people, and some people simply don’t want to be reached to begin with.

        If you want to disengage with someone, the polite way is to just write “disengage,” not to try to throw in a last second snide remark.

              you deserve it.

              you’ve also convinced me that giving lemmy.ml a pass was a mistake. just no point talking to Leftists.

                I really don’t think I do deserve it, honestly. Despite your repeated insults, from the very beginning, no less, I replied patiently and honestly to everything and ignored the insults on the off-chance you turned your attitude around. Nevertheless, your insults still end up helping me rhetorically, as it’s useful for onlookers to see. Oh well.
