Just check their comment history for like 30 seconds. Everyone makes a joke that misses the mark every now and then, but the shittiest people usually constantly spew their nonsense.

Or just don't look at people's post history you creep?

I don't find it creepy to read a person's posts that were willingly submitted to a public forum.

If you just browse through your home feed, sure. But actively going out of your way to see someone's comment or post history because you don't agree with what they said is childish and frankly a bit concerning. It really shows your character.

Wow, hmm... This is such a good comment to shitpost under but I'm not sure what angle to take. The fact you seem to be upset people publicly can get on a public website in public and look at the public posts the user posted in a public forum in public is a good one. But also the whole "just because they said a bunch of shit about hating the Jews doesn't mean you should look at their post history you creep!" is a good one too. Now though, Im just wondering what you have to hide? So... I guess let's take a look at your post history 🤷

Edit: Ohhhh... I found it everyone. He/she/they/zem doesn't want people to know they don't like LGBT people that much.

Oh trust me, if you do look through mine (which I also don't see the point of) you won't find much, just me talking shit about android apps

That's not all you'll find now is it? Apparently you don't have the greatest view in LGBT people? I'm a shitposter, but not a prick. So I genuinely would like to know your controversial opinions on LGBT and give you the space to say your opinions and defend them. Like why is Pride Month "unwarranted"?

And also that time you refused to finish a book series because it had a gay and a nonbinary character in it

I do it all the time. I mainly do it to make sure I'm not arguing against a literal child. There's many reasons why one might look at a person's post history.

I never do, in fact I'm really surprised that a forum that's supposedly all about privacy doesn't offer something as simple as hiding profiles.

[–] starman2112@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Definitely do. Sometimes it's the only way to know whether someone just had one bad take, or if they're genuinely awful and not worth your time to reply to

[–] isVeryLoud@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Most of your comments have negative points. I wouldn't value anything you have to say.

That's why they are against reading other users' post history.
