    Triggering people that get too bound to - and upset over - specific subjects like semantics (while trying to still refrain from saying something hurtful, I don’t do personal attacks) is a weird (and often lonely 😅) hobby, but someone’s gotto do it. 😅

    But yeah, –For anybody’s info (I don’t usually do this (never even when I still roamed the bigger companies’ social websites), but I have a feeling that the community of Lemmy might be a bit too small still to not at least do this once… 😅 Here’s my real view in relation to this particular topic): I actually have no real opinion on it as I always will be an outsider to it. I don’t have any personal experience with it myself, so I also have no ability (or right) to judge about it. If enough people tell me something is not for them what is for me (and I assumed to be the norm for everyone until that point in time), then it’s just a logical action to believe them and to take their word for it when it comes to their experience of it, cause there’s just no way to find that out on my own from the outside. Hence, in reality, I usually will just go along with what is asked to use, as is just the respectful thing to do whatever my personal views would be, so I’m not as ignorant as I come over, but I do like a bit of trigger-chaos sometimes, cause I do feel people in general are getting a bit too ‘responsive’ to details (like semantics) these days, and I personally am of the idea that we need to give ‘other people’ a bit of their right to be wrong back…

    This random (just a bit overly) PC meme just gave good opportunity for my bad habit and I just couldn’t help myself,… Which I then, due to real-world stuff, quickly forgot about having done,… until now. 😅 I’ll maybe try not to do it too often here, but I can’t make waterproof promises on that,… Sometimes it’s just stronger than myself to ‘push some buttons’ as I pass by them… 😅

    And finally, as a sidenote on this: I’m either very amazed I only got -1 on it; or maybe Lemmy just doesn’t go any lower? 😬 It did go up to 2 at first, which I can only imagine being somebody that must not have read it to the end. 😅

    Anyway, truly no offense intended to anyone, just an old habit of poking the bears to keep everybody a bit at the edge of their seat. 😂
