I genuinely don't know what context this information is supposed to give to me.

I think the idea is that use of a quotation from a much quoted source doesn’t actually provide much of an insight into the position of the speaker, this particular quote is extremely common at weddings, for example

I feel like this doesn't work in this context because this specific Bible quote is indistinguishable from Tumblr speak and this discourse is also in distinguishable from discourse you would see on Tumblr.

It doesn't really matter if the quotation means much you first have to recognize it as one.

Maybe you'd have recognized an extremely common 2000 year old quote if you read something other than media For Babies which is what we're trying to tell you to do

No, it's just that I'm not religious so I don't recognize it as a Bible quote. I really don't understand why this is being used as a metric for this. If I quoted faust at you you probably wouldn't recognize it either but I wouldn't use that to assert that you only read young adult novels.

You guys seem to think that pattern recognition is a valid metric for identifying the media someone consumes which is fucking stupid

I’m also not religious but am passingly familiar with one of the key underpinnings of Western literature

I'm gonna be real this whole discussion is kind of reafirming my first take that you guys are just being weird boomers about this instead of having actual valid reasons for disliking the fact that a bunch of adults have made kids media one of their personality traits

Like, cool you know the bible. I still don't get how this is a valid response to "yeah i agree but I think you guys are being weird boomers about it"

Yes, you have mentioned you don’t know how context informs meaning, I’m not sure any of us can help you with that

…yes?

I feel like we've critically misunderstood each other here

Oh you’re just really dumb, got it.

Sorry big dog but people going "you shouldn't make your personality based on stuff for kids" is something that comes up every few months Like Clockwork on Tumblr. We simply come from different societal contexts when it comes to this and that's the first thing I read into this.

Somebody’s seeing through a glass darkly.

The other day I was thinking about how this simile is the Biblical version of "the sky above the port was the color of television tuned to a dead channel", in that technological changes have obscured the original, literal meaning. "Mirror image" means "exact duplicate" to us!
