And then “4” guy will get upset about being called on his shit, and say, “Actually, you are the dumb fuck.”

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 46 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Better yet he will ask you to produce the "source" showing that it is not 4

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 11 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

And then say that source is discredited, without providing a source for that claim.

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Many seem to trust only the sources that have lied to them over and over again.

The "4" guy is simping for billionaires, who will buy the forum and censor the other guy for calling him out as a "dumb fuck."

[–] musubibreakfast@lemm.ee 11 points 2 weeks ago

Also the 4 guy has a podcast and a social media presence and thousands of followers who are willing to back up his idiotic claims and silence anyone who disagrees.

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 weeks ago

The 4 guy is a lemmy.ml user and the dumb fuck guy has been banned for incivility

"Calling me a dumbfuck is infringing on my free speech"

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Not calling you a dumbfucks is infringing on my freedom of speech, and in tie breakers you defer to calling someone a dumbfuck. Source: 13 years practice in bird law

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Alternatively, "You're rude. That is why your side lost."

[–] TerranFenrir@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

Nah they'll say "your the dumb fuck"

[–] HowAbt2morrow@futurology.today 34 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Very funny. And true. And sad.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And annoying because everyone, regardless of their political belief, thinks they are the second person.

I miss the 1996 internet, when it was just us nerds arguing about Star Trek versus Star Wars. We never should’ve invited the rest into our space. That was the beginning of the end.

Guy on the right should be pointing at the dumb fuck

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

We could always argue how many days are in a week like on the bodybuilding forums

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I'm not naming any names today 🤭

[–] systemglitch@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I try real hard to say what I think without being purposely insulting. I do this, because as soon as someone resorts to insults or character attack, I stop reading or listening to them (even when they am not involved in the conversation).

Avoid personal attacks and name calling if you want your point to remain valid to the listener.

[–] Mickey7@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

People resort to name calling when they cannot debate factually

[–] Muaddib@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

People resort to name calling when they don't want to debate factually.

If someone gish gallops you, don't waste your time countering every point. Tell them to fuck off.

I remember somone calling my comment an ad hominem. Bitch, that was not an ad hominem, that was just a plain old insult.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

As someone who argues on the internet alot it's true, I'm part of the problem.

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

There are no undeniable facts. Science doesn't prove anything objectively, it merely provides evidence to support or reject certain ideas.

[–] Belgdore@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago (7 children)

This is true to the extent that science can only prove things through induction and induction is not as good as deduction for logical proofs. Which means that it is not “objective” in the logical senses as it relates to physical reality. But science is “objective” to the extent that experiments are repeatable by any any given person following the same methodology will be the same results.

However the meme image is about interpretation of glyphs used to represent numbers. And the left guy on the bottom is a dumb fuck for not using one of the possible agreed upon options for the interpretation of that glyph.

This is more about interpretation of language and communication than science. Which puts you somewhere between the “9” and “6” guys because you are at least keeping the conversation in the interpretation of data / epistemology arena.

The problem are the people who see this and call it woke or start rambling about a flat earth. Those are the real dumb fucks who aren’t talking about any reasonable interpretation of the thing that is clearly being discussed.

Post structuralism is a mental disorder

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago (10 children)

questions the objectivity or stability of the various interpretive structures that are posited by structuralism and considers them to be constituted by broader systems of power.

Calling people who disagree with you mentally ill is one of the reasons poststructuralists say you're oppressing them.
