Maybe the reason here is that you implied that anyone with habits you personally consider to be undesirable are junkies?

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml -3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Well, I was hoping that indicating the unseriousness of my message with the "🙃" emoji would suffice to make even people, who deem "junkie" an insult, realize that it was at most said tongue-in-cheek.

And I do not consider these habits undesirable in other people, obviously so long as no one is brought in danger by drunk driving or such. They just don't align with my own personal vision for my own life.

If I need to write any more legalese to justify a stupid one-liner, I will lose my fucking mind. We're literally in a community for jokes.

Hey, you don't have to do anything. Just don't be surprised if people call you out for condescending language.

Is there a world where "junkie" is not an insult?

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 0 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yes, my world. Why is it bad to take drugs? There's no moral imperative that makes it so.

[–] Kanda@reddthat.com 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Now you're backpedaling and trying to describe a drug user, not a junkie

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 1 points 6 months ago

Okay.
