A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Are you really done? This might be a major life moment for you.
Nah. ElderWendigo@shitjustworks is clearly a witch hunter, and witch hunters don't usually learn. Five minutes later they get another major life moment: misread something, point hooves and screech, get called out, then delete the comment while downvoting people calling them out, as they run away with tail between legs.
[I kind of wanted them to point out historical falsehoods in my comment though. If there's something false there I'd gladly fix it.]
In no moment I whitewashed rock, denying its black origins. I didn't even mention the origins of rock. So don't be a liar - or worse, assumptive trash.
That does not contradict what I said given that I was talking about that specific claim, not about the anti-rock movement as a whole.
I believe this to be correct but it does not contradict what I said.
No, it is not. Learn to read.
I'm neither what would be considered "conservative" where I live, nor in USA (where rock is from). And I am not responsible for what your intellectual peers claim. (You might not be a conservative but you bloody behave like one!)
Nota bene: if two were to play this "I'm an illiterate so I make shit up lol" game, you'd be screwed, as it would be really easy for me to label you as an Islamophobic and a nationalist, on the exact same grounds that you're claiming that I'm [ipsis ungulis] "a racist" and "whitewashing rock". Think on why.
Or alternatively you might go back to Reddit. Given that you lack basic reading comprehension, you'd be doing everyone a big favour.
