      Yeah, but the problem is calling people’s opinions worthless. Them’s fightin’ words. There are so many other ways one can phrase it without being blunt.

        All he said was that he doesn’t care and some other nonsensical stuff. This comment doesn’t add anything. Not even an expression of an opinion.

        But to be fair: the response doesn’t add much either.

          I have a completely different take. They’re stating a personal preference (or an attitude rather than an opinion) that can resonate with other commenters. If I’m expressing something like that, my intent is to hopefully promote the idea to not give a damn so we can collectively move on. That’s why I don’t find it worthless at all.

          The same can be applied to the reply: it’s someone promoting the attitude of finding those opinions superfluous, but they’re mean about it for whatever reason.
