Twenty years ago, I met a couple with a young son who decided not to let the kid have sugar. I wonder how that might have worked out for the kid now that he’s grown.
I assume the kid hit 18 and went on a sugar binge as soon as he tasted it the first time.
Anyone have experience with this?
Nah man, I just dislike when people do shit like he did thinking they have a point.
Also nice knee jerk reaction.
Edit: in what world is a counterpoint agreement?
This is so frustrating
The commenter was building on top of your argument
You said prohibition wasnt healthy
They said total absence of control wasnt healthy
They implicitly agreed with you that prohibition wasnt healthy
I then spell it out for you that the message being built, that almost certainly you also agree with, is that moderation is the answer.
A counterpoint turns a random point into a line, a line into a polygon, a polygon into a solid, etc.
That counterpoint gave your message an extra and important dimmension. They thought your message was correct but lacking neccisary nuance.
For some reason you got peeved with that, and i think that looks poorly on you, not anyone else.
Counterpoints aren’t agreement
Edit: No 3 paragraph retort? @cAUzapNEAGLb@lemmy.world
Dont be a troll, this is pathetic.
Come back to this tomorrow and reread it if you have to.
I’m done, heres your three paragraphs though, i still love you.
Well, the love is not reciprocated and seems rather hostile that you would say that.
You must be hella fun at parties.
Edit: my bad, they don’t get invited to parties
The parties I go to don’t have people like you.
