Oh dude, this is actually really awesome. Thanks!

Good for you guys

How do you filter comments by instance on sync? Can it, for example, filter all comments by hexbear users on posts from any instance?

They'll have to time that right

I'm just saying to package the words in a way that is comprehensible to the person reading it, and likely that they will.

I honestly don't doubt that there was some good content in it. But the audience you are talking to doesn't want the communication you are giving in that format. It comes off as annoying, and therefore not effective in communicating the message you want to deliver.

I'm over here delivering free marketing lessons to tankies lol.

I'm gonna go touch grass now. Good luck with stuff

I'm putting time into supporting good communication. Telling someone you don't respect them or their time is also not an effective way to communicate either btw. Thanks for showing your cards though.

I get that the text might have some good and important meaning, but the format the meaning was delivered in spoils it.

Like, I would love it if someone gave me a million dollars. But do I want the million dollars in pennies? Not really lol

Was I deciding a topic just then?

That would be accepting it as good communication. My point is to not do that, because it is not good communication. I agree with you though, I could have.

Say what you want, 11 paragraphs is objectively longer than what most people want to read on social media. 11 paragraphs is just annoying and unproductive.

You can see I'm right because literally everyone who isn't a hexbear is like wtf is this. It is bad communication.

Likewise 😘

I will respectfully disagree that throwing in 11 paragraphs of some text without explanation adds to a meaningful dialogue

I don't doubt that you were doing it in good faith, but the execution was still in such a way that it is off-putting.

I think a part of good, honest discourse is recognizing and respecting the time of the person you are talking with.

If you are going to respond with 11 paragraphs quoted from a book, you should preempt it by saying something to diffuse it. Something like, "oh man, this is super long but actually quite beneficial. I wrote a tldr though at the end in case you don't have time to read the whole thing."

I use this site while I'm at work. I literally don't have time to read all of that lol.

While funny, I actually genuinely don't believe that an entire population of people is "bad." I've actually made a point of living in a lot of historically "bad" places, and it turns out, everyone just wants to eat good food and have a good time 😅

Ooo cool. I could have used this.

However. You can also just put your credit card between the phone and your phone case. Simpler solution ha

I'm sorry you have so much hate for people you do not understand. Genuinely, it might be better to see people as just people, and not representatives of the worst parts of the governments they happened to be born under.

Idk man. Whales are literally sentient, have culture, families, and fucking language with grammar.

I'm all for eating fish and cows and most animals. But whales are basically people that happen to live in the water. I can't get on board with that.

I didn't say anything about the people. Every Russian person I have met is super nice.

Governments though, they suck. Governments bomb apartment buildings full of people. These particular governments are barbaric.

I think it is important to acknowledge that both the US government and the Russian government are responsible for terrible atrocities. It is not racist to say that.

Has Russia been bombing civilian apartment buildings in Ukraine?

Please note, I am asking nothing about NATO or America. I agree, the US has committed atrocities in other countries at war. I'm asking specifically if Russia has bombed civilian apartment buildings in Ukraine.
