      You and I don’t have to imagine that, dummy. We’ve already done it.

        Well idk about you but I did it many times unfortunately. Imagine accusing people in what you’ve done yourself I guess. Very pathetic indeed

        Realistically speaking, I’m not. Technically speaking, accusing people in what I do too may not be considered bad but that depends on the culture. Anyways I didn’t mean to be rude when I made that original comment. I still don’t understand how was it rude. I guess it’s my English knowledge that sucks again

          You said “imagine doing a thing” implying it was a really dumb idea… Like imagine eating a tidepod… Crazy right?

          But it was “imagine using a android” which like 70% of the world uses… Now your implying 70% of the world is doing something so dumb it is surprising you.

          People sensibly ask you, what should they be using instead if they care about freedom etc, and your reply is use something that doesn’t exist yet…

          So now the full circle is imagine doing a thing, crazy! , you should really be using something that doesn’t exist yet… You created a rhetorical situation thats impossible, and that’s why people respond very negatively to you. Your logic is inconsistent.

            1. I didn’t know the imagine phrase means it’s stupid. I thought it’s just judgment (e. g. imagine killing people). And I didn’t even say it very seriously. I already explained the reason. If you care to actually be fair, read that

            2. In this case I understand why people would respond negatively but imo rudeness and general toxicity is not justified. These things are always bad. Well maybe except the cases when the other side acts the same way or is just evil and you use toxicity as a form of terminating the person’s ability to hurt others. Though if what I said really was extremely rude, probably it’s fair idk

              I haven’t been rude to you. Or at least I don’t think I have been.

              I explained everything as clearly as I could.

              Remember with communication, it’s not your intent it’s the perception that’s important. And yes your initial phrase came off as hostile and condescending

        I honesty don’t understand the rudeness. What I said is unpopular as 8K monitors and I do think it can be downvoted but why being rude? I just don’t want to participate in toxicity because then I become toxic too. Ignorance is the best in this case. And I use LineageOS that’s based on Android btw
