I feel like I shouldn't be ignorant about stuff like that when they are playing more and more of a role on the world stage and the US is ramping up hostilities.

    You're willingly taking part in a public online forum, don't demand it to work like your fantasy notion of human conversation. You think real life conversations don't have random comments, changes of topics or people addressing the group?

    Your nostalgia about the good old days of internet forums is just wrong. Even without 'points' public online conversations were completely different from private ones.

    At the very least don't be a hypocrite. The person had a very valid response about how maybe reading state propaganda is not the best source of objective information - how is that not a valid reply to your posting of said state propaganda? You decided it wasn't addressed toward you, got mad and started to soapbox yourself and rudely lecture them - how very 'normal human conversation' of you. I think you didn't like your wikipedia article being challenged and all this talk about real human conversations is just your internal justification of being mad about a hurt ego, cause you sure as shit don't practice what you preach.

    Online is making people less connected, woaaah how novel, I'm going to use that fact to create real human connections by berating people about petty and asinine shit.

      Posting a part of the constitution referring to democratic centralism with no value judgement one way or another is not "state propaganda".
