This has probably been asked before but I wanted to add another layer/an alternative.
So, I ask, where did your username/pseudonym/nickname originate from? What’s the meaning behind it?
Or alternatively, which is the most creative/interesting nickname origin you have come across?
What’s your reasoning for not asking someone’s reasoning? Or in other words, if the reasoning behind their thoughts is interesting then why stop before your started?
Also sorry i just have lots of questions. Was there a certain type of comment that you wanted to know reasoning behind, or just in general? For instance were you wanting to understand hateful comments, or political perspectives outside your own? That sort of thing
Neat username regardless!
Pretty much all of the above. Sometimes it was a silly comment or argument that didn’t quite make sense. Sometimes it was like, “what are you trying to say?” but specifically asking for one’s reasoning helps clarify things.
I still might ask it some time, but I’ve found the environment here to be more hostile to rational thought than I’d originally expected… which was a sad discovery. A lot of people seem to react without first comprehending what they’re reading.
Also, thank you!
