    Watch for this behavior and you will see it often.
    If a Lemmy user can call out the age of an account he or she will use that as a way to dismiss and degrade the post that he or she does not agree with.

    Y'all would enjoy Lemmy a lot more if you just focused on the post and stopped feeling compelled to rummage through someone's post history.

    Sure, if that person has extreme political views, is a Nazi, or is astroturfing then maybe you have cause but clicking every single profile to find dirt to make an argument showcases your poor debate skills.

        Because new accounts, like yours, often make a post that's controversial see a debate, don't like the way the discussion goes, then delete the post and the account. Wasting everyone's time, and removing content from Lemmy.
