I've been doing this for some time now. Even if it's something that I consider important.

I just don't see the value in participating in a discussion that I have seen countless times already where the same points and arguments happen over and over again. One that I know wilI turn ugly. It's exhausting and I've decided to just opt-out.

No one suggested any of the things you are ranting about though. That’s why I’m confused. Someone said that they don’t like talking about religion because it seems to them like lemmy users hate all religion. Someone else responded with a comment saying they believe it’s not all religions and it’s really specific things that most people seem to take issue with, and then you came in ranting about how they are the problem. Wtf?

I just don’t understand how you got that from their comment.

Not doing this with you. If you can't follow the logic between the post topic, this thread's OP, and the common experiences of anyone on the internet, that's fine, just don't discuss. Not going to do the thing where you're "just asking questions" and critiquing every pedantic little point along the way. That's sealioning and it's tiring and lame and why half of the people here don't want to discuss the issues they're bringing up. The only one here who can't seem to follow the logic is you.
