  • This is an alert from the Summer's Eve Emergency Broadcast System. This is not a test. I repeat, this is not a test.

    Reddit has experienced a Level Spez douche release which impacted Lemmy.world approximately 96 hours ago. Lemmy users may observe increased douche activity, including but not limited to: unjustified smugness, irrelevant and erroreous corrections, bad arguments, ego fragility, unwarranted hostility, and assorted douchebaggery. Users are advised to remain calm, refrain from engaging encountered douches in serious conversation, and to liberally use the block feature.

  • You're being reductionist to the point of losing the actual point but, if we assume you're doing so in good faith, then yes. Without a doubt yes. Given a choice between a person's feelings being hurt and a person getting physically hurt, the latter should win, especially when the only reason those feelings are hurt is because the person refuses to try to understand why or is so fragile they're unable to handle criticism.

    Most men I know aren't made uncomfortable by this and, so far, the only ones who do have their feelings hurt are absolutely the ones women should choose the bear over. Not because they're bad people, but because an important point is being made and instead of trying to understand, they dig their heels in, refuse to understand, and now gripe about being victims because people are talking about things they don't want to think about.

  • You sure need a lot of straw men to make your point.

    Your entire string of arguments here is again proving why the bear is the right choice. You're so fragile, you can't even respond honestly to a hypothetical situation. I can only imagine how you'd respond in an actual crisis when faced with something your porcelain ego perceives as threatening.

  • Just FYI, this person is likely suffering from schizophrenia. Not just because of this comment, but dozens of comments about the many, many people that have tried to kill them in a variety of ways, some nonsensical, since their childhood, not to mention their "law enforcement ex boyfriend that causes planes to fly low over their home".

  • My wife and I have discussed a few. For her, anything that's terminal or results in such a significant decrease in quality of life that continued living is some degree of torture more than 50% of the time.

    My criteria are mostly the same, with added conditions for dementia, which seems to run in the family.
