@M0YNG good point!

Someone asked me what late-stage capitalism is... I said its when the hookers are legal and still accept bitcoin for payment... prove me wrong!

#lateStageCapitalism #capitalism #bitcoin

@ephyra it only works if you dont actually understand how **anything** works, thats the problem and why its so scary. If they understood even a tiny bit of science they whole thing comes flying apart.

@sandwich hey, im the founder of the server and one of a few helpful moderators here. Feel free to message me anytime if you need help.

Whats up?

@Flannel_Ninja Show me a horse, I dont think they exist... no opening of your eyes allowed!

Next time your feeling down just remember there are people stupid enough out there to sincerely beleive germ theory is a hoax, the earth is flat, and that human-caused global warming is a conspiracy...

People literally beleive the whole of science is some giant cabal of scientists in on the conspiracy just so they can get paid... never mind the fact that research scientists are some of the lowest paid scientists compared to those who work for companies implementing and doing...

@z13ik pong

and people wonder why we dont trust the government...

@phicyclist

abject hostility should be apologized for when provoked or initiated. while blocking them is a perfectly ok response, so is engaging them, presumingyour engagement has a positive purpose (which mine always does)

@rudolf Except that some tools no one in their right mind would ever subject themselves to using.. C# would be like using a screwdriver covered in fire ants where the head doesn't seem to match any screws except this one especially screw made out of a candle wax.

Did I mention you are allergic to fire ants?

@pedrohgb@mastodon.online already did :)

Ok now you are listening (or at least making an effort to).. i appreciate that and applaud you for finally taking that step.

There are two definitions for respect and both fit this situation. One is basically "To have admiration for a persons abilities", which in this case means I have admiration for a persons for a persons point of view and how they got there, as well as put time and effort into both understanding it and considering it as a valid argument and when i do not maturely discussing why and try to come to to a place where everyone involved may learn something. Though keep in mind we are talking specifically about an online debate in this case and in the more general case it may not be that specific. In short it basically means "do i give their demands my time, energy and consideration, and am i willing to put the time in to find a compromise if their demands are unreasonable".. for a debate on a topic it means what I just said, other demands it may take another form.

The other definition is "to give due regard to ones statements, demands, or feelings", this would also reply, if a person is acting in a way which is cruel or otherwise not respectful then their statements, concerns, feelings, or anything else they may utter will not be considered with due regard.

In short, whatever the person wants to do, whether it is to have their ideas consider thoughtfully, or some other demand, it generally wont be honored or given and "due regard" if the person does not engage respectfully.
