You're viewing part of a thread.
Then there's also the fact that most simplistic and absolute statements are almost guranteed to be wrong.
So why are you the one making simplistic absolute statements here? Are you just making a Strawman you can knock down?
What is this simplistic and absolute statement of mine that you're refering to here?
Israel bad, AI bad, police bad, Elon bad, Capitalism bad, Boeing bad, Microsoft bad, Apple bad, Facebook bad, rich people bad, landlords bad, C.E.O.s bad, ads bad, cars bad, SUVs/trucks very bad, piracy good, bikes good, uBlock Origin good, trains good, Linux good, bats good, Ukraine good, protests good, socialism good …
I think it's pretty accurate summary of the general attitude towards things here on Lemmy. In no way is it an absolute statement.

So much for trying to understand the nuance of opposing viewpoints.
You're just being snide here and not in any way explaining what is it that you disagree with me here exactly. There's plenty of people replying to that comment that they more or less agree with that summary. It's a generalization. Ofcourse it lacks nuance. That's the average attitude of a group, not any one individual.
Right, so no one has actually said that. You've invented an argument no one is making based on a generalization, and then patting yourself on the back for how well you've pointed out how bad the argument is (that you invented and no one actually made).
It's the definition of a straw man. You're not even twisting some one else's argument, you've invented one entirely on your own to knock down.
Like I said; it's the general attitude of Lemmings as a group. Not that of any individual. If you don't understand how averages work then I can't help you. The fact that you don't know anyone with 1.5 children doesn't mean it's not the average amount of kids of families with kids.
Straw man means misrepresenting someone's argument. It's called hollow man when you made up the argument entirely.
Did you look at the replies to that comment? Does that seem like people disagree with my post?
Where is the lie?
Do you have an example on why any of these povs are wrong?
i can easily agree with 90% of that.
I can agree to 80% but also disagree with 80%.
I also agree with most of that
Lol what maniac would hold opposite opinions for all of these?
To be honest, I agree with all of these.
Yeah, I guess there is some truth to it.
