I fucking hate that show. Also, I love your uswrname.
i don’t get the hate. was my comfort show for a good five years… it’s a random ass sitcom, what did people want it to be?
It was just kind of boring.
It’s also not funny

People just like different things, theres nothing to “get”

If you liked it, awesome, enjoy! Let others hate it, its their own energy they are wasting. I didn’t like it either but I cant be bothered to comment about it.

I hate it because it stereotypes autistic people. I’m tired of being compared to Sheldon Cooper.
they never even said he was autistic?
Yet my autistic tendencies are compared to him.
That’s not the shows fault though, is it? That’s people
And “that’s people” because they made him the most stereotypically autistic character possible, they just couldn’t outright call him autistic because even the fucking dimwits who wrote the show knew that it wouldn’t be OK to laugh at autism
Imagine we switched out the behavior. Instead of Sheldon behaving like autistic people do, we could give him the issues people with Tourette’s face. Of course he doesn’t have Tourette’s, but he shows the same involuntary tics, and him behaving like that is the butt of the joke. Would the show be at fault?
Again, you’re still the one stereotyping him as autistic, nowhere in the show does it actually say he is
I literally gave an argument for why this isn’t the be-all-end-all. Would you like to try engaging with that instead of just repeating a response that doesn’t actually try to understand the issue?
My mistake, this response was meant for another commenter, looks like they deleted their comment and I must have clicked on yours instead
He’s not officially autistic because then it would be obviously wrong to laugh about his behavior - but they still gave him autistic behaviors and expect people to laugh about it! That’s honestly worse, as now it’s supposedly okay to make fun of the things autistic people struggle with.
Lmao thanks bro i joined this place last night after hearing about it on Reddit I decided to go for a short username and this one was available i couldn’t fucking believe it
“Available”. You could have joined any instance besides world where it was also available. This is not leddot.
Calm down brother. Accept new users
Chill
Welcome to Lemmy.

When I started reading their comment, I really thought they were going to make a joke about the word “available” to refer to your slut username lol.

That would have been way funnier.

What crawled up your ass dude?
world’s liberals heh
What’s wrong with you? Get off Lemmy if this is how you’re gonna welcome new users ya parasite

This is not leddot.

Proceeds to reply in the most “leddot” way possible

Wtf is leddoy and what is it known for
I just took it to be a mentally 12yos mangling of “reddit”
That’s unfortunately a side effect of this type of UI, upvotes and downvotes inherently cultivate a hive mind mentality, making following the meta more important than critical thinking. If you make a clone of Lemmy I guarantee you it will follow the same path eventually

As a Fediverse user for probably 2 years now

Fuck you for not welcoming a new user.

OP you are welcome on Lemmy and the wide Fediverse!

Welcome to Lemmy! Ignore the jerk in the corner.
