This is the article from the above comment you replied to. Like literally a few comments up from here.

Yeah and I'm talking about the article in this post, you know from the comment thread were are in... 🙄

[–] Hobo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

That's very unclear from your reply above. Do you always act so condescending when people seek clarification? Because even this short conversation with you has been challenging. Perhaps try to be a little less of an asshole. It would be easier to clear simple communication issues especially when you use pronouns and the antecedent isn't really clear.

[–] Murvel@lemm.ee -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes, especially when people start lecturing me that I'm wrong when they haven't even made an effort to understand the issue at hand. All just to prove that I'm so wrong and they're so right.

Happens more often than you think and I really don't like it.

Right so change it. People are going to meet hostility with hostility. If you approach every conversation from an advsarial position you'll get a lot of "I'm right and you're wrong" and "lecturing" from the other side. If you had simply clarified that your vague statement was about the original article, and not the one linked in the comment you replied to, then we could've walked away with a positive interaction...

[–] Murvel@lemm.ee -2 points 1 year ago

Right, or just make an effort to read up on the conversation.
