If you like comfortable echo chambers and rigorous banning of people you don't agree with, why don't you just stay on reddit?
That's not a novel or interesting idea. Having low grade shit shoveled onto the platform has no impact on "echo chambers".
Why don't you make an actual argument instead of calling mine "low grade shit"?
Just because you found what I said offensive doesn't make it any less true.
Because your statement really is low grade shit and you're obviously not interested in an actual discussion or debate.
Lol, you're giving yourself too much credit. I doubt anyone is offended by your shitheel low effort trolling. Don't confuse people calling out your stupidity with people being offended by your stupidity. You're not that clever.
"women fought for the right to work" may be a factual statement on its own, but it's entirely irrelevant to the context of the OP.
“I called your argument shit because it IS shit.”
Yeah, sorry, I don’t buy that. That’s like telling a battered woman you beat her because she deserved it.
You’re just excusing your own verbal abuse on the grounds that it was necessary because what I said has upset you, but you’re unable to articulate why.
Why do you think you upset anyone? Your initial statement was irrelevant and ignorant, but it didn't upset me in the slightest. I CAN articulate my thoughts, but it's pointless because you're not having a discussion in good faith as demonstrated by your responses to others who DID articulate why you're talking out your ass.
Because if I didn’t, there’d be no point in so many people spending the time and effort they did to make sure I regret posting that.
Yet no one has managed to prove me wrong, at best they’ve managed to convince me it was inappropriate because the woman in the OP wasn’t blaming the patriarchy for her situation.
But I’m sure you could have articulated that if you had wanted to, you just didn’t because it’s easier to insult people you disagree with than to have an actual argument with them.
People can call you a dumbass without being upset.
Well, by that reasoning I can also criticize women without being a troll or a misogynist.
responds to a basic meme that happens to be a picture of a woman by making a completely irrelevant comment that specifically criticizes women.
"guys I'm totally not a troll or a misogynist".
Responds to a factual comment that happens to criticize women by making a completely irrelevant accusation of it being "nonsensical" and "low grade shit".
"guys I'm totally not upset"
