That's a cool straw man, but I didn't make the argument that you're arguing against. My comment doesn't make any claims or state any "facts" about human nature beyond the self-evident. I don't make claims without supporting evidence, that's kinda the point.

data showing someone has other partners in a huge portion of all long term relationships

That's called cheating. Is that your excuse when you get caught? 'I can't help it, it's just my nature!'

psychological denial

Funny coming from someone who felt compelled to write this dumbshit comment on an anonymous forum justifying their shitty behavior.

The mere fact that we want to fuck everyone is proof

I really like pizza. I want to eat more pizza than is healthy. That is my nature. Fortunately I happen to be a human; humans possess higher cognitive abilities than animals, so they can employ logic rather than defaulting to natural instinct. Animalistic urges are not justification for being a piece of shit human being.

I, too, would be very interested in an invite.

That's the thing though, criticism of lemmy does not necessarily mean hate. We can acknowledge and be honest about the problems without shitting on the platform. My experience over the last week with kbin would have been way beyond the technical know-how of say, my sister. It's ready for the average user. It will be, devs are kicking ass, but we're not there yet and that's okay. I would rather people know what they're in for here than to show up expecting a polished, bug-free interface.
