Do you commonly criticize comments that don't issue a historical paper on the background of a meme?

Do you commonly interpret criticism as a request for a thorough academic study?

[–] Prunebutt@slrpnk.net -2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Only if it's that kind of smartypants criticism.

If that seems "smartypants" to you, your intellectual standards are set pretty damn low.

Mixing up cause and effect isn't some minor goof. It's the difference between eating bread and eating fire.

I'd appreciate it if you didn't insult me. The smartypants part was that you "um-actually"d me. Not that you stated something too "intellectual".

I never said "that's because of enshittification". I said "that's enshittification". My statement didn't contain any description of causal effects.
