For example, if I talk about "magic", most of you will tell me I'm wrong without even asking me what I mean. You might even insult me.

How common is this? How much of this conversation is actual communication vs just a string of triggering phrases that we react to?

How much of Lemmy is people just barking at their own echo?

Isn't declaring "disengage" just a way to ensure you get the last word? Feels very Reddit-coded to me.

If you wanted the conversation to end, perhaps you shouldn't reply?
