  • Yeah there’s a reason why all other forms of media throughout history have become privatized by the biggest corporations.

    It always happens and you can’t stop it. Stopping it would require mega-rich people who cared about the greater good, which is an oxymoron.

  • I guess I very rarely see anyone try at all. And in lots of cases it just eliminates any possibility of actually changing a person’s mind. Just calling them a name makes them hate you more and entrenches them in their opinion.

    I guess I don’t have a solution the internet is just a fucking sewer.

  • I just think that whenever there is any discourse on the internet where 2 people disagree (for the record I disagree with that guy as well), people just immediately throw out buzz words as a way to shut down the conversation. It’s so irritating to me.

    Sealioning! Slippery slope! Bad faith! Gish Gallop!

    It’s so cringe to me. People just try to figure out a word for what the other person is doing so they get to stop actually trying to intelligently debate them.

  • How do you tell the difference between someone asking you to show evidence for your claims, or clarifying your point, or having a normal conversation with you - and sealioning?

    Can you give examples of both cases?
