You might be offended but you really do need this; you're acting like an asshole when a simple correction would've sufficed.

I've got ogmios tagged, they have a history of espousing bullshit as "fact", usually with some religious bent to it. Their science education likely came from a pastor and I doubt they'll ever sincerely try to actually learn science.

Fair enough. Still, there's no reason for the other guy to act like a dick.

Please be my guest and spend your life correcting misinformation spouting morons on the internet instead.

The morons don’t listen or learn and only pollute online spaces.

So no a simple correction would not suffice and you would know that if you were paying attention.

You're still acting like an asshole.

[–] Cypher -3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

And you’re responding like a moron. You have failed to engage at all on the topic of misinformation and instead choose to defend spreading brain rot.

You’re still acting like an asshole. Blocked.

Good, that was always an option.

I'm sick and tired of "being an asshole" being a reason to be dismissive of someone who is correct. Have all my upvotes
