It wasn’t you, you were the one being helpful, but I didn’t understand what you said anyway

Yeah, I’ve got like 10 people ahead of me

I really regret joining this site to talk to people. If I’m lonely I should talk to Chat GPT or something like that. I feel like absolute garbage.

Hey, this is way more detailed and this does help me understand, or at least it gives me a start and a little bit more context. It still sounds really complicated and I still don’t get it but I guess this is a very technical thing that I’ve got to do a lot of reading to understand. But based on some of the comments, I don’t think I’m actually smart enough to do this. Sorry, I’m just going to move along.

if you’re a cis man there is absolutely no reason for you to be offended OR to insert yourself into this conversation. This is not for or about you right now.

Once you touch the lever you become legally liable.

Thanks, I will look at all that, however

It has been my experience that when someone understands something, they are capable of explaining it to someone else. For example if you asked me how to make tea, I wouldn’t give you a youtube video and tell you I can’t explain. I’d tell you that you’ve got to get a cup, boiling water, tea leaves, one of those little metal balls with holes in. Do you know what I’m saying? I’m having a really hard time comprehending the tools utilized by typical usenet users because I do not understand how it works. When I ask for clarity I am pointed back to the same confusing materials. There has to be at least one person who knows what usenet is and can explain it to another person, without telling them to get the explanation elsewhere.

Well if you call the cops you’ve done all that is required of you. I guess you could also call the engineer.

I’ve been to r/usenet and it is incomprehensible. I now know I am supposed to download an app. I’m sorry.

I don’t mind when cis women say stuff like that because it means they’re marks, I feel bad for them, because they’re absolutely going to get scammed by a man. When trans women say stuff like this it sometimes means they’re in the process of bullying someone in their own community into taking their own lives, so it ruffles my feathers a lot more.

Most rich people I’ve known are not famous, have no private security, and have an unsecured iPhone which they do not keep in lockdown mode. If a person is famous or known to be rich, they might have security, but most rich people look normal and aren’t famous. I am aware that I don’t know everyone on the planet.

Where would someone start if they wanted to get into usenet?

Misogynists do not fear violence from women, girl children, or anyone born female. Misogynists do not believe people born female have internality and do not believe they are capable of any kind of violence.

Misogynists typically don’t believe that people born female have any kind of internality. If a woman (or sometimes someone they think might be a woman) just goes through the motions, it doesn’t make any difference, because that person’s internal life is totally unacknowledged by the misogynist.

If it’s a game, how come it isn’t treated like a game? If I saw a guy tying people to train tracks I would probably call the cops because I’m not in a movie and I’m not about to lose my life for god knows why. If there was a big lever, I wouldn’t pull it, because I have no experience with managing a train. That is legitimately the only realistic answer to this question. Most people are smart enough do to the same thing. Most people wouldn’t even know what the lever is for, especially if they’re in the middle of witnessing a murder. I’m sure most wouldn’t have their best thinking cap on in that situation.

I don’t think they were being an asshole about it.
