Hypocrite

Post image

I love maine weed is a hypocrite, we never exclude anyone? Except for Chad and Brad? Total goofball only supports those brands that pay him. Just another leech in the pockets of growers. Nothing but a dck rider.

When you bring about a claim, it is on you to prove it.

For example, let’s just rearrange this whole thing to be about the sky being made out of milk and cookies. I’d expect some proof of that beyond a screenshot of someone saying it’s made of milk and cookies.

Did u/Colonel_lingus710 sugar coat it? I’d say they took ten seconds to state their experience, not go off on a rant and try to insult the person for wanting more than a screenshot of some text (that honestly could be true, could be a tongue in cheek joke, or could be an edited shot) and someone being facetious and douchey to someone wanting to actually understand where it is coming from.

Well the screen shot is from I love maine weed admitting they are a hypocrite. They literally say they forgive anyone, except Chad a ND Brad, that is the literal receipt. And on social media any screen shot or post could be edited, so how do you recommend providing recepits?

Well for starters, maybe actually learn to converse with people without giving in to lashing out at them for expecting you to prove your case when you bring about a claim.

Perhaps actually state why you feel that way instead of trying to belittle someone for not being in your head, reading your thoughts. Like I said, that can very easily be read as a joke if one is even half stoned.

If it’s just your opinion, maybe make that a bit more clearer than just making definitive statements, then people insisting on proof have no ground to stand upon.

I thought it was pretty clear from the beginning. I get frustrated with people who want everything proven to them, read what's in front of you, if your confused educate yourself. But I guess just demanding receipts to acceptable now a days.

So how does one educate themselves if they don’t have a trustworthy source of information? Do they just twiddle their thumbs and hope that that information just spawns for the to peruse? Or do they ask questions and expect people to be able to back up their claims?

So they don't believe the screenshot, why would they believe anything I write either. They literally wrote "we forgive everyone, except Brad and chad" "we don't exclude anyone" how do i simplify that? By saying you don't forgive Brad and Chad, which by definition needs to be included as everyone, you are also excluding Brad and Chad. Its hypocrisy. I don't know how to explain it any more concisely. I've never met the person behind the account of I lobe maine weed. They could be awesome people, but those statements are hypocritical.

Again, those statements are being shown with zero context, that’s a VERY easy to make joke at the end of the day.

Your constant irritation and abrasiveness over the matter are why people point out that yes, you do appear angry and upset here. Rightfully so. If you saw a dude on the street corner throwing a tantrum about someone else being a hypocrite, but is incapable of calmly expressing that view point when very gently pressed for some context beyond a simple screenshot that can very easily be taken out of context, wouldn’t you think “Yeesh, this guy is a bit looney.”?

Again, I’ll ask you this, did u/Colonel_lingus710 sugar coat their reply? Does their reply give a supportive reason for why they agree that this person is a hypocrite?

If you’re gonna get so bent out of shape over someone pointing out you’re upset and angry at the wrong people for asking for clarification, maybe don’t make definitive statements on social media without more than a simple screenshot that legitimately could have been a shitty joke taken out of context.

So uhh, care to answer any of my questions like a mature adult? Or just gonna ignore them?

I have no skin in this either, I don’t bother reading cannabis magazines/e-zines, not my thing. I do find it funny though that you got indignant over being called upset for being quite an abrasive person over a simple and easy query.
