A place where you can rant to your heart's content.
Rules :
- Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
- Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
- Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

What they said was incredibly dumb, but a lot of this is just you masturbating and it doesn't really help this person improve or really communicate anything helpful to anyone. Perhaps most importantly, there's no reason to think them incapable of independent thought. The problem is that they are too comfortable not exercising it.
No fuck that, if someone is in the habit of arrogantly pontificating on topics they haven't even done the bare minimum of research, dunking on their ass is a good way to teach them humility and encourage them to either stfu or at least try and do some investigation before opening their pie hole. Being nice to ignorant people and jerking them off constantly just encourages their complacency.
You're make a false dichotomy to justify your own complacency in doing what you find to be cathartic rather than what is actually beneficial.
The point of this original post is basically
kinda doubt we can save this one
pottery.
I apologize on their behalf, comparing that poster to a worm is an insult to perfectly fine, upstanding worms. I assume, even without investigation, that snakes and caterpillars are among them. I even know a worm who's a doctor (not a real doctor but he is an actual worm)
I thought you were very apt.
