Lmao, you're so full of shit. What state did your grandparents die of cancer in and when?

Sorry, are you actually trying to get me to doxx myself because you think it's such an unlikely thing that I have relatives who die of cancer?

Over half a million people die of cancer each year in the U.S. And you think I'm some sort of special person who has an entirely cancer-free family?

I'm also not sure why you hoped for me to have loved ones who died of cancer and when I told you that I did, you said I was lying about it. Isn't that what you wanted for me?

[–] nac82@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

I knew you were a fucking liar.

It's doxxing to provide the details on the year of death of your grandparents?

Yea fucking right. You know the facts don't back up your bullshit story and want to worm your way away from being responsible for your lies.

You claim there are so many deaths to cancer that it would be statistically impossible for you to avoid an encounter, while simultaneously claiming that saying the year and state that your grandparents died to cancer in would be specific enough to dox you.

The enemy is too powerful yet too weak, and all truths are lies, right?

The reality is that somebody related to you dying of cancer wouldn't match up for what I wished on you. A sociopath like you who wishes against progress on cancer vaccines knows the words family but not their meaning.

Shut the fuck up.

Uh... this is what you said:

I hope you get a chance to encounter uncurable cancer of your loved ones so you can have a little empathy for these moments.

That sounds like it literally matches up. So that's a weird lie.

A sociopath like you who wishes against progress on vaccines

When did I wish against progress on vaccines? I hope there is as much progress on vaccines as possible.

If you think I ever said anything anti-vax, in this or any other thread in Lemmy ever, please do quote me because I would love to see it. Unless, of course, that was also a lie.

I'm guessing you won't actually provide any evidence to back up your silly lie, you'll just insult me some more. But feel free to prove me wrong on that.
