Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Speaking of mental problems. You need to take a chill pill bro, why are you being so standoffish? This is a public discussion forum, not everyone is going to agree with you.

Cause I know what I'm talking about, unlike some who just want to shit on a person from some article they don't personally know. Also the particular comment you are answering is chill enough.

Oh, so you know this lady and aren't presuming and making assumptions in exactly the same way as everyone else?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Yes, I'm using the information given in the article and choose to not make assumptions outside of that.

I'm also not making moral judgements about her, only about people in the comments showing themselves.

So the bar for you is generally knowing a non-zero amount of things about mental disorders but for others in this thread it’s having to know the person from the article?

Setting yourself up for an easy win by default there, smart. What’s not smart is apparently assuming you’re the only one in this thread that is even faintly familiar with mental disorders and therefore others must bow to your subjective opinion.

You don’t have to know any particular person to know that having a mental disorder doesn’t magically un-asshole them or shield them from all criticism; origin from disorder is an explanation, not an excuse. I know I’d never expect, or frankly want, anyone to suffer my presence if one of my many oddities caused them some kind of significant distress.

I've read your comment and found nothing worth an answer.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Luckily nothing was asked, no answer was sought.

Then it's unclear why would you fart out your personality to me.

...so, do you have a mental problem or you're just being an asshole?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

Both and neither
