A lot of people who think they're saying "[actual fact]" are really just stating "[subjective opinion]" and call any criticism of their opinions "[incoherent rage]"

[–] Franconian_Nomad@feddit.org 74 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Actual fact: The democrats don’t control the weather and create hurricanes to destroy Florida.

Actual fact: abortion is a life saving medical procedure

Subjective anecdote: hurricanes are a life saving medical procedure.

How can you say them being suggestive if they haven't suggested anything. Bro cant even talk.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, bro talks. You just don't listen to him.

Also, he suggested watching Megamind again, which I accepted.

Isn't that it's reproductive organ?

[–] Adm_Drummer@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is funny because I read it as "Democrats don't control the weather and [they] create hurricanes to destroy Florida."

Media literacy strikes again. You could state what you stated and yet someone will still believe they create hurricanes without the ability to control weather.

why downvotes??? is this some [Incoherent Rage]????

You can control the weather to some degree and governments do, do it. Its just the word 'control' implies significant amount of control when in reality it is very minor.

Often these conspiracies are rooted in actual facts, just that facts get distorted insanely. Even if one person in the chain made a mistake, everyone else after them will also make the same mistake.

(Just an article on could seeding if anyone is interested )

It could be argued that the democrats enabling of capitalism drives climate change. Although not expressly for the purpose of destroying Florida

Source?

By who, the dumbass Republicans saying this shit?

[–] basmati@lemmus.org 0 points 1 month ago

By anyone with the slightest bit of education on climate change. Your team game is irrelevant to the reality that by Biden increasing oil production to its highest ever amount, democrats have enabled capitalism to change the climate, and thus the weather to the detriment of the entirety of life on earth.

There are more than three things

[–] DeVaolleysAdVocate@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

so a way to incorporate sources into the posts and judge them accordingly?

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Not everything that is worth discussing has a source. Abstract ideas and hypothetical scenarios (among other things) have their places in rhetoric and communication.
