“Everyone who disagrees with me is a troll” - terrible take.

That take of that take is a terrible take. In fact, it’s a circular argument because one could argue that you are, yourself, overgeneralizing anyone who has a dissenting opinion from your own.

People are allowed to like or dislike what they like or dislike. If you feel marginalized because your opinion is unpopular, whining about it doesn’t/won’t change anyone’s minds.

We need to go deeper, this take of my take of that take is a terrible take.

I never said I felt marginalized, I never whined, I never said people can’t dislike what I like, and I clearly don’t care about having an unpopular opinion or I would’ve left Lemmy by now lol.

You’ve essentially made my point for me, which is that an opinion does not make someone a troll just because you disagree. Discussing in bad faith is what makes someone a troll, e.g. pulling strawman arguments out of your ass

Having an unpopular opinion doesn’t make you a troll. We can argue good/bad opinion all we want. But calling someone a troll for disagreeing with you is just plain rude.
