Maybe "naïve" or "ill informed". "Foolish" is pretty harsh.

Foolish is accurate.

Anyone supporting Google, Meta, Musk, Anthropic, Amazon, etc are fools.

The assumption of tech savvy around here is wild! Never been in another online space where people assume everyone is at a reasonable tech level.

You've never been on the internet before lemmy?

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

:) Since the 90s! But nowhere, and I do mean nowhere, is as snotty and assumptive about the man-on-the-street's tech savvy.

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah I'd agree its probably over assumed here more than other places, but it's definitely not uncommon in other online spaces... I find it hard to believe it's something you've never seen before unless the only other space you've been is Instagram or tumblr and only following food posts or similar...

FTFY:

The assumption of tech savvy around here is wild! Never been in another online space where [all the] people [there] assume everyone is at a reasonable tech level.

You get me. I meant it's worse here than other places. Same for assuming political savvy. Believe it or not, there are shitloads of Americans who don't know about 1/1000th of Trump' crimes. "Oh I don't listen, politics is all bullshit."

Commented on Trump's dementia to a friend the other day, "Yeah, but wasn't Biden pretty bad too?" That's where the "man on the street" is at. :(

The 'you' in the comment from the top of this thread is addressing the average lemmy user, the man on the street being a fool is nearly a given 😅
