I’m saying that the people on here pretend to know everything.

This is absolutely true when dealing with tribalists. You're either with them or against them; there is no in-between.

Just look at everyone getting mad at you for even suggesting we don't know all the facts. Sad, but that's what this generation has become. Rabid fools desperate to fit in with other rabid fools.

If they’re mad about an opinion over the internet, well that’s on them. Nowadays it’s pretty much follow the hype train and pretending to know everything.

They can downvote me to oblivion, that’s fine. It’s internet point which does not mean anything at all and especially here on Lemmy. I can still do everything. So it matters even less.

Majority doesn’t even have a good argument point, if I remember well, there were only one or two people who had. The rest didn’t and went direct into personal matters, which isn’t a good thing for an argument.

I quite much forgot about this thread/ argument until, I saw your comment.
