"Win an argument online"

The edible paste market must be booming.

That's just inefficiently stupid. Don't burn bridges, burn entire cities.

If you want to go down the blunt force road, don't down vote manually, let a script do that ... for you and your 10 closest ~~alt accounts~~ friends.

If you want to be a bit more sophisticated you have a bot run your alt accounts, commenting with short LLM generated content at random posts. And whenever your mark is active, you use one of these accounts to come at them. Maybe have your replies rewritten by your AI, so you don't give it away by using the same phrases.

You can take it one step further, and analyse your marks interactions. Does a username pop up more than others consistently? Then your mark may have both poor OPSEC and an alt.

I'm reminded of a meme from the early 2000s. keep in mind it was a completely different time.

arguing with someone online is like the special Olympics. you may win but everyone looks retarded.

The very best is when some fucking loser goes back through your comment history and says, "Oh ya, well..." and brings up something you wrote months ago to try to embarrass you into silence. Fuck those pathetic fucking losers.

Look at this someone who thinks you can win an argument on the internet.

I'm sorry dog but if you're talking crazy saying Little Caesar's tastes like ass and I look and see that you're part of r/PissSwisherAnonymous Imma call you out

Everyone's in here talking about downvotes... I read this meme and thought "You seriously get into arguments on the internet?" The most I'll do is leave a comment telling someone they're full of it and then ignore the rest. Since the comment is more for the silent masses reading than the person I'm replying to. Hey, kinda like this comment. OP probably will spend their days in smug misery but I hope the rest of yall can step away from this petty bullshit some time.

Honestly, I am so happy that Lemmy doesn't tie votes to any points like Reddit. It's a pity that people will still find a way to bring points into arguments. Yeah it sucks when people disagree with you, but can't always be right all the time either.

I had no idea people were doing that lol.

I was going to downvote this, but then I realised that would be admitting you won.

I'll have to write an angry comment instead

erm

here goes

You're a stupid libtankietard who votes for chairman musk and all your opinions are based on Facebook and the UN. You probably believe the moon is round. You can't even wear your Arch Socks on the right feet. We should defederate.

Phew I think I won now. I forgot what we were arguing about?

I remember when the queen came round to congratulate me on my upvote score, and it added £1000 to my bank account and everyone went around saying "look there they are, wow". But it was all ruined the day the Fire nation attacked.

Hey tankies gonna be tankies.

I love it when i see a bunch of new downvotes in my history after an argument because i count every single one is a tear shed by my opponent

I love it when failed stand up commedians try to troll you, fail, and cry to moderators when you guess who they are irl.

Then they get their podcast cohost to troll you and theu fail even worse.

How do you even notice such a thing?

You're really gonna let the world make you care about grumpy little arrow clicks? It diminishes us to even think about it. Each person is a being of pure chaos at the infinite center of creation. You are cosmic, made of stardust and in ways beyond words profound.

Besides, there's no user karma on this site.

lmao, it's always so obvious when it happens. If they just downvoted my political opinions, it'd be whatever, but when they downvote things like providing sources and explanations for anodyne posts? Just tells me I can mentally subtract 1 downvote from all my recent comments.

Me here down voting your histo because I don't like your user name.
