    No human caused ecological crises during the height of industrialization? Sure bud.

    Go check on the Aral Sea to get an idea of what a non-exploitative economic system can do.

      sorry. I’ll take all the responsibility of forgetting the “/s”.

      thought it was clearly sarcasm, because duh.

      carry on.

      was trying to make it a clearly obvious point against that argument.

          I honestly believe that the more extreme .ml users will be chasing off new users coming to the fediverse, since they have the largest communities.

          Which is a shame.

          Deadpan sarcasm doesn’t translate well from a verbal medium to a written medium.

          Unless you’re in an echo chamber…

            wouldn’t say echochambers are immune, maybe communities where users know each other. like if anyone who knew me read it, they would immediately realize it’s sarcasm. but without any context, sarcasm is indistinguishable from a stupid idea.

            wonder how many times I’ve agreed with a nazi, because he was being sarcastic and I didn’t realize.
