Ouch my d00d!!

No, you're the exception. You weren't apart of the target audience because you stand out so much and can see things others can't.

But here, I'll send you something.

Thank you for the PM!

I honestly think you're underestimating people.

Maybe. Or maybe they're just not as willing to express to people how serious they are or don't care about impressing people.

Trust me, I sort of have a knack for this kind of thing, it seems.

It's definitely this. And just an fyi, I was never trying to impress you, I'm genuinely thirsty for knowledge, as the well seems to have run dry for me as of a few years ago, as ignorant and arrogant as that sounds (that's why I kept mentioning ceiling limits when researching certain topics, disinformation, and multiple theories and takes on a topic that makes it so an individual has to decide for themselves what they feel is right, based on all they research they've done).

But people here like 2 hide their power level (as I'm sure you do, too). It wasn't as harsh as this 6 months ago. A lot has changed on SaidIt since then (and it's not because of the website's owners, but because of the people coming to SaidIt. This is bound to happen to any website that offers you a freeze peach platform, for obvious reasons). There's a lot of attacks, shilling and disinformation being spread on SaidIt now when that was never a factor (and we're open to all forms of conversation, their ideological/political basis doesn't matter (most of us tend to believe politics are just theater anyway), you just have to be willing to discuss it and back it up respectfully). The new thing is people attempting to twist narratives of those telling the truth to dissuade other users from checking out the information or content they're sharing. In general, people are also very paranoid and don't like sharing things about themselves or being too open here, as we've been told there is MILO here lurking.

I personally was PM'd and told not to be as open as I was being in the past, because MILO is here by a staff member. Honestly tho, I could care less. I appreciate the conversation we did have and everything you've shared with me, I've already learned more. Seriously, that's a huge gift, thank you.
