Have you ever thought that you might be making the internet a worse place and negatively impacting the people interact with? Do you care?
This person is commenting in forums, not writing papers and news pieces.
Do I care? Kind of, that's why I posted this.
When did two wrongs start making an alright?
Yes, they do. Other people also steal, rape, commit murder, war, genocide, so in general you can justify allmost anything with that excuse - but you could never hope to increase the standard, only lower it, by doing the same.
In other words, wouldn't you prefer a world, where you could just trust people, even online?
Spend less energy fact checking everything? Fact checking the fact checking?
We live already in a fake, photoshoped world. Where the truth is burried in garbage, clickbait and make up.
The consequence is, we spend so much energy debating about whether some crisis is real, like climate change or covid, instead of actually doing something about it.
So it is up to you, if you want to raise the bar, or lower it. You realized yourself, that the experts replys to your posts often get burried, because you were better with the words (and said what the mob wanted to hear). This is what I am talking about. Because those experts have limited energy. At some point they just give up and leave the garbage be. At some point, there will be only garbage left.
Imagine for a second it comes from people like you. Can you see why folks would feel you are the problem?
