'tis why we have a “cuLturE wAr” going on. “Culture.” Hah. I miss the days when we complained about big v. small govt and “muh healthcare.”
pretty much… most of the people here isnt to change their minds it’s about how they feel about the game in certain topics… they never asked for a change of mind.
that’s why I see all internet forums just a place to throw feedback and nothing else.
I just remember that you can’t see body language or hear tone of voice through text chat, so I check my assumptions at the door and take it with a grain of salt.
To be fair, it is fun watching people verbally tear into each other.
Particularly in the less constrained reaches of the internet.

We’re talking about Twitter? 
This is how I am about the Dark Lady Sylvanas Windrunner. I make no apologies. I just have to support my Queen!
Mayhap.
Mayhap elsewhere.
The thread may never know.

Nature of the beast I guess. If you have an idea, or feel a certain way about something, someone is going to disagree with you. Sometimes people are civil and insightful, sometimes they are petty and tear into you just because they don’t like what you’re saying. A good amount of the time people don’t even come to an understanding of exactly what it is they are discussing.
A forum is place where you can put your thoughts out there, and others can respond. Its a decent place to learn how to refine your argument, measure out exactly what you mean to say, etc. But its also a place where even the most eloquent are going to come ragepost when they are out of sorts about something. You can always expect a good variety, at least.

Thank you for this info.
I totally had no idea /s
Hello, friend.
And yeah. I get really defensive about stuff, even if I may be wrong.
I inwardly get somewhat defensive when I read something I disagree with, but I just generally stay out of arguments because I’m really bad at debating my position on anything.
Me: “I like/dislike this, or I think this about so-and-so topic.”
Opponent: “But why do you like/dislike it or think that?”
Me: “I don’t know, I just do.”
Opponent: “Well, you’re wrong.”
Me: “Okay.”

This sounds so relaxing by comparison. Especially the BBQ.

I don’t usually get super defensive about things.
Someone did call me a Karen earlier though. So I had to roast the little bugger.
Ha, I’ve still never seen that movie! Funny.
It’s pretty relaxed here. Voting is compulsory so everyone is out and about. Usually people set up stalls to sell home made crafts and baked goods. But the pre-hype doesn’t last long, and we Aussies take it all with a grain of salt anyway.
We usually know who we’ll vote for well in advance!

This place makes me irrationally angry sometimes and I don’t like myself very much when I feel like that. I haven’t been here in a couple of wee ks. Taking a break from the snark is a good thing.( My own and others)
