How often do you write a reply but don't post it because the argument just isn't worth it? - eviltoast

    I just deleted four paragraphs about Batman and the ethics of murder because I realized I didn’t actually want to argue with anyone, I was just soapboxing. And it would definitely start an argument.

      You know, we could use a soapbox community. No replies, just text posts. I could definitely post a couple of my own.

          Today on my soapbox, all the reasons IronKrill is wrong about what they said yesterday. I will ignore all questions ir rebuttals.

      That’s when you post anyway and add in “I will not be taking any questions.”

      Stick to your word, ignore replies if you don’t even care what other people have to say in response.

      Fuck it, soap box anyway. It’s a neat way to catalog your thoughts and opinions, like having a journal or blog where the subjects are informed by what you’re commenting on.
