You wrote things that were blatantly false while offering advice on a subject you don't know about--why?
For instance:
Is broadly wrong, there is nothing specific to mushrooms here, and this is entirely incoherent.
Also incoherent and wrong.
Also incredibly presumptuious, and again wrong.
I can't and won't make a single statement regarding guns. I happen to have been foraging for mushrooms for the majority of my life and care deeply about it.
I feel attacked, and I find your statement entirely disingenuous!
For all of your intentions, you haven't listed one relevant resource or factual article that will actually be of help to anybody who wants to know more on the subject, just a series of things and are incoherent and make no sense.
Please suffer my padentry! For the sake of the dialog here, I can't presume to know what readers will or won't think about what I write here. I find that sort of paternalistic condensention revolting. It's the height of arrogance to presume you know anything of those who are reading, be they your lessers or betters. But please don't let me dissuade you for your own sake.
I've written my bit and that's done.
fwiw, this obviously isn't reddit and I have no idea what he reference to Unidan has to do with this.
Sorry I care about keeping people safe, it won't happen again.
I won't see any more of your messages, I say again you are being way too "hobby enthusiast" when we're talking about people who have already died from eating wild mushrooms. It's not a place for dissecting nuance and details for broader public who knows far less than you. Again, you are embodying my last point and muddying very basic safety instructions given to me by a fucking mycologist for talking to average people who might be interested in the hobby with no experience. You are either dense or obtuse or both.
You seem to care more about your hobby than people's lives, and that's just fucking weird, and I don't want to interact anymore because I suspect you might be a very weird person and I am wasting my energy trying to get you to see reality through human eyes.
No mycologist would suggest you should misinform. Full stop.
