And I dont owe any of you a good attitude. We live in a time where the majority of people get all their opinions from headlines, and its the reason the world is seemingly as fucked as it is. All the muppets lamenting the popularity of Kirk and Trump and Musk and however else, while at the same time doing the very same thing.

My aggression, if you can even call it that, is at the utter state of discourse in social media, and the negative affect is it having on people ability to think for themselves. God forbid anyone puts in some effort, instead of just posting feelings...

You do have to be polite if you want to get the quality of replies you are expecting rather than what you get.

Good day.
