    No, I’m comparing word usage and was clarifying why the statement was inaccurate.

      And in doing so, your go-to example was comparing a Religion to Illiteracy, implying Religion in and of itself is a mental defect…

      Ya know who believed Religion was a mental defect? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Adolf_Hitler

      I know I just broke Godwin’s law, but… Jesus

        What? This reads as nonsense to me, apologies.

        I didn’t comment on religion, and the illiteracy aspect was completely irrelevant to what I stated. It was purely an example.

        I think you misread what I said quite severely.

          They misread what you said intentionally.

            It does indeed seem like that’s the case. It seems to happen extremely frequently on Lemmy.

              Yep. The biggest source of manufactured outrage outside of Fox News Headquarters.
