I’ve been on the internet long enough I can have the entire argument with myself at this point. I’ve taken to just posting what I want and forgetting about it. They can’t all be bangers.
Probably 95% of the time, honestly.
Almost every time, even when it’s something I’m a SME about. I just don’t want to play the popularity/karma game and deal with nonsense.
What is an SME?
Subject matter expert
Ah ok, thanks! Figured it had something to do with “expert” but I couldn’t figure it out.
A lot of the time. Sometimes I even do research to back up my argument then I realize it’s not worth it.
If you already went through the trouble of collecting facts and have the nerves, go for it. There are too many idiots filling the comment sections of most social media platforms. Don’t let them be the only ones who are being heard / read. We need more of those usually silent people speaking up.
I often type and then realize I’m not really adding anything to the discussion. Then I just discard it.
That’s me when I’m tipsy and writing a cynic comment!
