Missing -

1. I noticed a word used slightly incorrectly in the title. Rather than reading it with the clear intended meaning, let’s take it as literally as possible to build a suitable straw man.

2. Someone replying in every thread, debating everyone like it’s their job and accounting for half the replies in the topic.

As a US poster, I need all units of measure to be what the Founding Fathers used and all pickup trucks to be what the Founding Fathers drove.

As an EU poster, I won't understand the US obsession with large vehicles and I will recommend bicycling instead.

As a programmer, I think we can improve performance if we multithread, containerise, microservice, and store n-depth JSON in a No-SQL database.

As a Python programmer, this doesn't look Pythonic. We should be using pythonic Python, especially the new release that adds the syntactic sugar that we've all been waiting for.

Is it really a parody if its indistinguishable from the real thing? Also missing a section where someone makes a statement as a fact and has a response from an expert explaining why they are wrong.

Usually also highly upvoted because it sounds right.

This is missing a tangent where someone finds a way to interject a point against “woke,” gets mostly downvoted into gray text, and is followed by a ten level deep rehashed debate over whether free speech should imply access to private platforms or not. Oh, and the various dead troll replies that you can see if show dead is on.
