Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

The original posts implies a large majority is doing a thing. The reply isn't saying "nobody is doing this" it's saying "it's not nearly as common as they are implying". In which case "I haven't seen it so it's not that common" is valid.
Where exactly does it imply majority?
People writing memes and social media posts do not qualify with statements like "a statistically significant number of beavers" when talking about beavers. That is wordy and pointless. We can form basic expectations that the people we interact with don't make assumptions about 100.00% of any given population.
"ever notice how men criticize games like..." Strongly implies this is a common behavior from men, instead of wording it "ever notice how some people criticize games like...'
So the answer is "nowhere"
Your lack of reading comprehension is not my problem
Anything's possible when you make shit up kiddo
