downvotes for a Cornpop story reference they probably didn’t realize, oh well, typical Lemmy

Joe Biden, if Joe is to be believed

lmao, I’m Mexican. Pointing out the last name is Mexican being the reason it’s the same for both of them in a silly way doesn’t make it racist. It makes sense that we try to be watchful of actual racism, but it also makes sense to not go overboard, we lose support, sow division, and waste energy that way

Just because you’ve adapted to the lies doesn’t make them ok, nor the best version of what is possible

Negative hype can kill a product that could have been good.

Positive false hype can deceive people into wasting money.

Sure, complete honesty would be ideal, but if you say “well it sucks right now but we promise it will be ok when you buy it”, not many people would rush to order one.

And they shouldn’t. It’s just another way of saying “people acting rationally based on truthful information”

Many good products never made it to market because of insufficiently good perception.

That should be a separate issue. It’s not the only available path, just one often taken because it’s the most forgiving of shoddy business practices, doesn’t justify its existence, either.

On the flip side, creating positive hype out of smoke and mirrors can be used to kill a competitor’s product for no good reason, so it’s not quite ok either.

I think people are starting to realize the depth of corporate deception and bad-faith practices and how that affects everyone at large, and so they’re rightly tired of them and trying to reset it all back to simple, effective, and fair ethical standards.

when I posted that, the root comment was getting downvoted to hell, while all the other comments with the same position where getting a lot of upvotes

-all except for another root comment using clear sarcasm to express the same.

I’ve seen this far, far more frequently here on Lemmy than anywhere else on the internet. Maybe that person making statistical inferences that Lemmy might have a lot more autistic people relatively could be right.

The proportion of people who can’t read between the lines and can’t parse more than one logic-altering operator in a sentence is way too damn high! Like really off. Worse than reddit in that way, I hate to admit.

Based on your downvotes and consistent experience in other parts of Lemmy I’m starting to believe the average Lemmy user is bad at general reading comprehension

Yeah, without a disclaimer and evidence it’s modeled correctly it’s just straight misinformation at this point.

I hope they get pulled from the road. Problem is, he’ll just bribe some government officials

My problem is, due to systemic pressure, how under-trained and overworked could these people be? Under what time constraints will they be working? What will the oversight be? Sounds ripe for said slippery slope in practice.
