Which degenerative brain disease are you afflicted with anyway?
Which degenerative brain disease do you think causes people to value the truth and to have a basic grasp of English grammar?
Dude. Calm down. You said something that people disagreed with, just accept that's the case and move on.
We've all had people disagree with us, doubling, tripling, quadrupling down on it achieves nothing.
It doesn't matter if people disagree with you. It matters if you're right. I obviously don't care what people think, beyond my disdain that humans can actually act this way. It's disappointing to have to be grouped with you guys.
If you don't care then why does it matter?
I literally explained in the next sentence. "It’s disappointing to have to be grouped with you guys."
I like to think of humans as thinking beings. The kind who possess the basic ability to communicate properly. The kind who understand that the reason you might say a sentence is to explain something from the previous sentence. Just basic things that separate us from animals.
Its gotta sting that youre both disagreed with and wrong then, huh
