Not the guy you’re replying to but the first half of your argument is silly. If I said “Everyone on Lemmy likes Star Trek.”, would you still demand that every exception be named or would you understand that I was talking in generalities?
I understand that you mean I’m being unnecessarily pedantic, but I feel like in this particular case “everybody” actually has to mean everybody, or else the whole point is moot. There’s very little value in saying “some people deserve love” or even “most people deserve love”.
