While it's true I'm on Pleroma, which affords more than 500 characters, it still doesn't provide enough to make every post a scientifically rigorous treatise, nor did I realize that I was expected to do so. The parts of the fedi that I federate with sport a higher-than-twitter average IQ, but I don't think even they demand that from every opening post.
If you want to engage and don't think I've provided enough information, feel free to ask for clarification before whipping out the gotchas and accusations. If I want to be accused of bad faith in every reply, I'll follow Maggos again.
For all you know, my proposed solution might have been "We need to jettison California and have a stronger country without them".
(Actually, that's unlikely. I prefer not to invoke the name of the Statist God "We", as it too often leads to solutions with high popular appeal and almost no chance of working)
