I should clarify that I saw this happening in the notes of another person's post; but for simplicity's sake let's say that:

Me: *reblogs a post*

Person: *reblogs the post to complain about the subject matter*

Me: *reblogs that reblog with additional commentary about why the subject matter isn't as simple and black/white as that person thought, complete with evidence and links to more information*

Person: lol that's too long I'm not reading all that

Me, reaching through the internet to take that person's face gently between my hands and inexorably bring them close to my own face, so that I might whisper: Then perish.

#again this is not me; it's me being outraged at someone else #my life #critical thinking #Sure tell me to f off or end myself as some delightful people on the web are always wild to do #But don't you DARE tell me you're not going to read something #you started this so you had better damn well finish it #and that 'then perish'?#both a threat and an inevitability if you don't employ critical thinking #you've got to read and work your brain and look at things from different angles
