It is waay too accurate.
<rant> In this land, in this time, people look for conflict. Even the most minor incident can bring you into trouble. People try to see that most unfavorable interpretation in anything. People truly express their demise and depression in the most crude of ways imaginable. </rant>

Had this issue recently.
"Vanilla is good."
"What? No, chocolate is good."
"Both can be good. There doesn't have to be a competition."
"NO! Either chocolate is good or you hate chocolate!"

I find myself habitually dumbing my words down here. It is molding my discourse.

Fuck's sake, not this braindead take again.

it has nothing to do with being dumb. people can be extremely dumb and still be friendly. this is just behavior that's looking for a fight.
One could argue that dumb implies lower taste. A smarty seeks conversation, a dummy seeks fights. Consider popular videogames.

it is only braindead to call things wrong without any kind of argument or reason behind it
Is it not braindead to share pop culture myths that can be disproven by a single google search, or am I fucking condemned to forever see this shite along with such luminaries as "We only use 10% of our brain" and "Before Christopher Columbus, people thought the earth was flat"?

Potatoes are a New World crop. They didn't exist in medieval Europe.
And i was saying thats (corrected elsewyere to 'early modern') english, so, possibly intended by the writer, possibly not, that language indicates a time they could have had potatoes.

it's not a myth though. people in the medieval ages weren't working around the clock. When the cow is milked and the eggs are collected, people largely didn't have much to do outside of harvest season, where it actually was working around the clock.

i think what you call "dumb" is what i call "angry". people today are hella angry, yeah. which i guess is a particular thing of modern times and used to be different in the medieval ages, say. anger is not the normal state of humans in general. people nowadays are angry about a lot of things because of stimulus overload, IMHO.

Man, you don't get off that easy in modern first world farming, much less pre-modern subsistence farming.
People don't live in houses made out of literal shit because they're too busy inventing the jig three days of the week; nor do they starve and freeze for lack of material goods because they're just too lazy to go out and forage in their abundant spare time; nor do they cultivate extensive ectoparasite infestations because that's the latest fashion. Subsistence farmers don't work 'round the clock only because there is no fucking clock; people work from sunup to sundown, and often longer.

Same!! It's my go-to for grilling season, but it's also versatile enough to cover lots more ground 🥪
