Those damn communists with their
checks notes
Asking what your interpretation of the word is so they can actually discuss the concepts
Those bastards!
Completely unnecessary and hostile reaction ☹️
Different cultures, education, experiences and upbringings lead people to have different interpretations of and feelings towards various ideologies. IMO It is only fair for OC to establish the definition first, rather than unknowingly discuss something completely different with the other user.
Responses like this are why a shit ton of users on these platforms do your username and don't interact with anything
It was a genuine question, but if I've struck a nerve with that somewhere, then I'm sorry.
Hey pal, stress is bad for the body. Can be as bad as chain smoking if you have chronic stress.
Lemmy is full of leftists, and that looks like a trigger for ya. Just be safe out there.
Also, grouping all communists together is exceptionally inacurate. Lots of variety in leftism. Obviously, if you are discussing politics with a leftist they'll likely want to discuss the merits of "socialist ideals" with you.
