| Is it that interesting that I found the comment unnecessarily judgemental and makes a shallow unsubstantiated assumption about the author's demographic/personality? |

| ▲ | fossuser 2 days ago | parent | next [-] | | Oh please - it’s an honest assessment not a personal attack and it’s likely accurate. That you think otherwise says more about you than it does about me. I prefer honest truth to polite fiction. It’s better to attempt to see the world as it is than delude yourself with bullshit. | | |
| ▲ | gellybeans 2 days ago | parent [-] | | Is this the same cope police use when they profile people? It's actually absurd. That's okay brother, you tell it like it is with your "honest truth" |

| > My guess of what the author of this blog post looks like is 15-19yrs old & male, probably aspie. Generalizing. It's would be the same as me calling you out as being an 34 male Texas Neckbeard MAGA supporter for having the user name "pessimizer". |

| ▲ | doublerabbit 2 days ago | parent [-] | | As a figure of speech, which this was; not so. I was explaining the point of an personal attack. As an actual insult, assuming and throwing it at someone is an attack. It could be derogatory if what said harshly generalizes a majority or group. | | |

| The term "aspie" has some very obvious and common negative connotations, much like "retard" If GP had said the author was probably retarded, would you be so confused then? |
