sometimes i think i should try and be nicer online, i don't know when i got so mean
it's hard for me to not assume bad faith whenever anyone talks to me, and it's also hard for me to not feel like on some level that's fundamentally the right assumption to have
@lycaon trusting people is hard, but the further away you get from mainstream media, the less assholes per cubic volume there are =3
Speaking for myself -- I often regret being harsh on people who didn't really have it coming.
I don't often regret not being mean enough to someone online. Occasionally I feel like I should have roasted someone harder, but that's increasingly rare
@lycaon
I've found that even when someone is acting in bad faith, it's often because they made the same assumption, & sometimes making a show of openness completely changes their behavior.
(Ex., I got into an argument with somebody who got really combative in a way that made me think he felt like my disagreement was an insult to his knowledge. I switched to socratic inquiry and he happily refuted his own points.)
