why would you follow someone you agree with?

if you want to learn, you search discord.

Searching Discord is precisely the opposite of learning. You lose knowledge every second spent on Discord.

:) i can't know, i'm not a discord user. Apparently i prefer "losing knowledge" on lemmy

They meant

dis·​cord: lack of agreement or harmony (as between persons, things, or ideas)

Here, I was keeping it in a drawer because I thought I wouldn't need it, but obviously I did.

I couldn't take the statement itself as sarcasm because you're not wrong lol. It would have been more obvious if you glazed Discord instead I guess.

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

I thought my use of capitalized Discord would be subtle but noticeable that it was a joke. I guess I was too subtle.

This is why when learning guitar I looked up guitar lessons and then looked for people who didn't believe learning to play guitar was possible at all and the abilities instead were based upon innate talent and genetics! /s

Seriously, if learning was done by discord, then US politics (and cable news viewers) would be full of absolute scholars, instead of, you know, the exact fucking opposite of that.

guitar example does not work :/

politicians are not genuine in their discourses. Most are there for profit and they say things that even they don't believe in 🤷

Why would listening to two sides of this help you learn anything? Hearing double the lies will teach you nothing.

after your comment, i went back to the top of this post and started reading all the comnents. It's very interesting to read the arguments from many sides and see the nuances some people bring to the conversation.

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

That isn't all discord.

Relatedly, if you think social media threads are a great way to learn stuff I don't know what to tell you other than maybe try picking up a book and see if there's a difference there.

[–] merde@sh.itjust.works 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

too many assumptions, but thank you anyway

[–] aesthelete@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago

This was pretty discordant, you learn anything from this exchange? 😆
