At first it was all about presenting data in an original looking way. In the end it was about pushing political ideas in your throat using a plain bar graph. It was not about sharing something interesting you found but about taking advantage of a captive audience.

    nobody can respect that others are allowed to have different opinions.

    It’s the paradox of tolerance social contract. I will respect their right to an opinion as long as they uphold that contract. Unfortunately, many don’t.

      1. Stop misusing the ‘parodox of tolerance’ if you haven’t actually studied it. It doesn’t mean what 99% of people on reddit/lemmy think it means.

      2. I’ve seen more people shut down anyone who disagrees with them (both here and on rddit) than I have people ‘not uphold the social contract’. Yes, there are trolls, but there are way more people who say ‘shut up nazi!’ at the first sign of even a slightly different opinion.

        1. It’s a Wikipedia link away, it doesn’t require a PhD to read and understand. Why are you assuming I need to study it to know what it is?

        2. Would you like to state your views? Because it certainly sounds like you have some that are pent up inside.
