Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
Posts with little-to-no context
Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
"Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")

Rules:

Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
No bigotry of any kind.
Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Full clarity, I edited this so that the image wasn't miles long, full original can be seen here.

@DiddlyDonger on Twitter, "For those of you who are into older women I'll have you know I recently turned 28". A random user responds "Pushing 30 with no kids in 2026 is Crazy". Diddly replied back "You are literally homeless" and he responds "And I have a much happier future being built than your lonely one". Diddly then posts "That's not what your gofundme suggests" with a picture of some text, highlighed is "I am tens of thousands of dollars in debt" and "I have no family, friends and zero connections to help me." @DreamsTurnDark chimes in "On the one hand, men in glass houses have no business throwing stones. He was wrong for that & should've known better." Diddly then says "What do you mean men in glass houses... he doesn't have a house".

There's been tons of moments I've shared with friends who have kids who I've seen and experienced with and literally thought "that must feel amazing".

Then I go home to a quiet house, feed my farm animals, and just... Quit life for a few hours. Nothing else to worry about. I'm sure there is a ton of emotional and rewarding moments having children, but I appreciate the rest of the time where I just don't ever have to worry about them.
