The laziness of the average person continues to amaze me. You’ve chosen to ask and wait for the answer to a question which could have been answered by reading the article you’ve commented on. “Why” is the reason journalists pen these articles.
yeah why talk to actual people on a discussion forum made for just this when you can ask chatgpt instead?
Who cares? It's the internet, not a fucking job.
It would have taken you considerable less effort to read the article and you would have actually obtained some knowledge from a source.
You're genuinely better off avoiding the internet entirely if your intent is to go about your life waiting on people to give you the answers to questions to topics you evidently do not care about.
Not really.
I am going to ignore you now. People like you are insufferable.
Assuming you read my whole comment, it would have taken you less time to read the source material to get your answer.
We all get more out of the internet if we value each other's time.
This is a load of malarkey and I guarantee it's only being perpetuated by the next generation of internet users.
The time he spent criticizing the question could've instead been spent answering it.
Nah, he just wanted to jerk himself off by putting someone else down for asking a question. Now that the snowball effect has taken hold, all of you are following suit because you only care about looking good in front of your peers.
Actually it's a pretty deeplt embedded human quality to tell other people to act right, read the room, familiarize themselves with context, otherwise they're gonna do it to thousands more unfortunate people. Pay it forward: tell people to shut up when they have nothing to say. It's not really a big deal, man. There are different social rules when we are in an aggregation space, as in trying to help each other cut the wheat from the chaff informationally, and what you're asking could just as easily be put into search. Since we're on the computer.
tl;dr Lemmy is for being a hater
Right. You're just doing whatever is going to make you look good in front of your peers.
You saw the vote ratio and immediately started conjuring up ideas on how to agree with it.
I don't expect more from people like you and I'm going to block you now. Goodbye.
Upvoted out of spite. Please don't ever say I want the approval of Lemmy users again. That's just beyond the pale, man. I can't think of anything more offensive than being called "spiritually Israeli". 90% of the things people downvote on here are perfectly fine and it's a puzzle to me to figure out what pissed people off. I think maybe they have really unhappy lives.
I just feel strongly that it is polite to volunteer the unwritten rules of social engagement to other people. I'm not some kind of internet law fetishist like these people. Your insult will never be forgiven...
A major member of OPEC was just attacked. Had you not put those two pieces of information together?
Iran produces 5% of global oil and there are a lot more oil producers in the region, which might end up getting involved. Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iraw, Kuwait and Qatar come to mind. We did see Iran attacking Saudi oil production a few years ago, so this might happen again. Hopefully not, but still.
I fear something bad is going to happen. Idk if Iran can just sit around and let Isreal bomb them.
They already launched drones against Israel and some of them got shot down by the Saudis.
Not by Saudi Arabia but Jordan. The drones don't need to fly over Saudi airspace to reach Occupied Palestine, that would be an unnecessary detour.
