I decided to Google that name to understand. First blog I clicked on has a paragraph that starts:
I think it’s especially absurd to place your trust in Mozilla FurryFox and their team of stereotypical SJWs and soydevs …
In 2020 this person was substituting coherent points with trite schoolyard namecalling from over a decade before. So that dude’s not only an incoherent idiot but also dangerous. Man.
For real, what idea was that actually meant to convey? OP seems confused about having been indoctrinated with cult language
(OP I’ve been there, good on you for reflecting on it, but there’s more unpacking to do)
Wait’ll you hear which one came first
I’d say to learn to fucking read, but that’s not even the main problem with you. It’s not even the condescending smugness while being clearly wrong, though that does make you insufferable.
The real problem is how the only conversation you want to have is to undermine a valid news article for invalid reasons and to undermine the people responding with relevant lived experience, then intentionally miss the point and double down to attempt to convince yourself you didn’t say something stupid in the first place. Fuck off.
From your linked article that you don’t seem to have read beyond whatever quote you think vindicates the incorrect thing you typed:
However, Brody explains it’s essential to understand that the safety and tolerability of legalized prescription ADHD medications are miles apart compared with illegal meth.
“To emphasize this, I will compare it to the degree to which the distance to the moon dwarfs the distance to the local supermarket,” he states.
“Since Adderall is chemically meth” is not medical information, nor is it accurate, but is what you posted.
Literally the next sentence after your quoted line:
While these small differences are important in how they affect us, without a degree in chemistry, they can be difficult to discern.
Then, digging just ONE CENTIMETER FURTHER into either article, the OP is clearly about illegal meth, and the article you linked describes illegal meth as wildly, exponentially different from Desoxyn or Adderall.
Get your harmful bullshit out of here. “How is this news?” Idk try reading the article man.
Not only is this wrong, the prevalence of this weird comparison fuels more stigma and dismissal of people who already have to struggle to get Adderall without judgment from their own doctors and pharmacists, when it’s literally one of the only high percentage treatments for ADHD.
“skimming things like programming blogs and stackoverflow”
Like this commenter claims he doesn’t do?
Sometimes there are better methods to implement something, and we can learn from others’ mistakes without having to make them ourselves
What a cool piece of art! Too bad about the text over it
Did you really just go from “I think history shows us that the alternative is worse” to this?
cringe
Written like someone who wasn’t actually paying attention to the subreddits during that time
Not dumb, just selfish, contemptuous of their users, and willing to destroy anything they have legal rights to for a cash grab.
Last panel inaccurate, games were vibrant and awesome
Just like the ones today that will feel amateurish compared to future immersive games. Give it time
who’s “we,” bub
