For example, if I talk about “magic”, most of you will tell me I’m wrong without even asking me what I mean. You might even insult me.

How common is this? How much of this conversation is actual communication vs just a string of triggering phrases that we react to?

How much of Lemmy is people just barking at their own echo?

    If you’re going to accuse people of not taking you seriously because you feel that they’re not agreeing with you on the concept of magic, and then go on to dismiss them when they ask you to clarify, then you shouldn’t expect a fruitful discussion to take place. I fail to see the point of this when you’re not giving people anything to engage with.
