It amazes me at how every post you make, for the most part, I saw/see something entirely different in the OP, or preceding post. I guess entirely different outlooks in life.

In summary, you state the article is 'lacking', while I think it's alright, and conveyed something. Isn't subjective outlook amazing.

I dont even understand why you care so much about whether or not I like the article. I'll debate because debate is good, but your investment in my opinion of it is perplexing.

My fascination in the article, is as I've already stated, I've read many threads here, where I read the 'community', or 'a' community here, concerned with the quality of material. I believe I've read several times people worried about being labeled 'voat', or becoming an 'ideological echo chamber'. I know as a new forum, that the quality of said content, or the ability to differentiate content from elsewhere is important.

I also comprehended what the author of the article was trying to convey. Perhaps it's the vectors of information that I like, which allows me to find resonance with the author; in that people lack originality. Have other authors pointed this out? Sure, but at least for myself, it was once again refreshing to see someone write on the subject.

As to your opinion, my only investment is trying to comprehend you, and converse. In this thread, you wrote a disparaging post, 'the article sucked'(warn others from what you thought sucked). I had already read, and had been contemplating for some time before this, what I wanted to write, as I saw merit(didn't think it sucked). What this thread is showing at least between the 2 of us, is 1 approves, 1 doesn't.

I respect structure because it makes the content easy to ingest, and it shows a person thought about what they were going to write before they got started. I respect real world examples because it shows research was performed. If an essay reads like a stream of consciousness, it comes across as low effort, or lazy, and that's the underlying problem with the article, and the content on the Internet that is serves to waste people's time. The writing has style, but dont confuse style for substance.

I can respect that post; I comprehend now what you saw lacking. Thank you for clarifying.
