You’ll be tagged as the one who thought a shitpost was serious
Please do tag me; tag me as the one who didn’t think a shitpost was serious but that Lemmy users collectively cannot be trusted to tell the difference.
You know what, I’ll just copy–paste this here, although I’ve never actually hoarded examples of all the times Lemmy was essentially as dumb as Reddit:
Several weeks ago, there was this post in a news community to a BBC News article. It was a real article; no tricks, correct headline. But the link was a 404. When I found it, it was upvoted about 20–0. I downvoted it as obviously nonfunctional but also commented remarking that it’s a 404 and giving the OP the correct link. When I came back to that post a couple hours later hoping to upvote a fixed link, the link was unchanged, it was upvoted 50–1 (my downvote), and it had one comment (mine) upvoted 1–0. (Edit: I checked, to preemptively clarify, that this wasn’t a “me” problem.)
Lemmy users collectively have the media literacy of a housefly.
In this thread, you’re the one we’re giggling at because you think you’re so clever, yet simultaneously fail to realize that everyone knows this shit is fake. Nobody cares about your previous interactions, just how dumb and smarmy you look here.
Shit, no, I think you’re right, actually: maybe Lemmy are worth taking seriously because I remember they were smart enough to correct your stupid, confidently incorrect ass the other day with “hurr durr Windows malware can’t run through WINE”.
Hey PieFed user, posting a 5-minute meme video where the guy struggles to make a custom virus do something through Proton isn’t the own you think it is. It literally corroborates my point. Windows viruses and malware will not work through Proton.
I like that there are intelligent people; the collective is extremely frustrating and intellectually lazy, but there are actual thought-provoking interactions by people who put in actual effort.
Lemmy will and does believe literally anything; I’m sorry that I take it within that context.
Not true. I’m Lemmy, and I don’t believe you. Checkmate!
Shit.
You’ll be tagged as the one who thought a shitpost was serious, got corrected, and doubled down.
I’m starting to recognize their username.

YOU are the one that cannot tell the difference! You seem to not know where you are.
You: Don’t believe it! It’s a shitpost!
Everyone: Haha Yeah it’s a shitpost. That’s… Why we’re here.
You: No, you don’t get it! It’s not real!
Everyone: Yeah, we know.
You: I’m the only one who knew!!
🥈heres your award
You must be so fun at parties
The people I party with aren’t morons like the average Lemmy user.
We all knew this was fake, you were just the only one dumb enough to think others believed it. Ironic.

I dunked you on that thread, too:
But you never replied. Lmao.
My guy, if you hate Lemmy so much then what in the Kentucky fried fuck are you doing here?
No, but like Lemmy users, they are invisible.
So you believe literally anything?
