Damn man, i feel really bad for you. You're doing the exact thing you're criticizing and not even realizing it. To a calm observer with no skin in the game it really looks like you're completely detached from any ability to hold a calm conversation about things that might bother you. You have the freedom to ignore people you find "weird". Frankly i think it's pretty "weird" to be on this forum acting so juvenile. I don't know if your goal was to be so obtuse as to intentionally provoke others, and you should really think about that.

It seems to me like there's people in here that have knowingly dedicated their lives to enriching themselves at the obvious and explicit cost of others. And some subset of those people are in denial about it. And some subset of those people don't have the emotional intelligence to confront a reality that contains people that actually are true and vitruous as they tell themselves they are. But hey, those are my assumptions based on only what I've seen in this thread and I'm willing to be incredibly wrong on this. I hope you have a nice Thanksgiving

Sorry I don’t want to be presumptive, are you trying to say that:

in this one instance you took “what you said was weird and that’s why you got the response that you did” as being an attack on a person’s character,

or are you saying that

categorically, pointing out that “what you said was weird and that’s why you got the response that you did” is always an attack on somebody’s character?

Like I’m trying to figure out if you’re sharing that you misunderstood a single post or that you categorically don’t understand an entire realm of communication.

Please, stop. You're not trying to figure anything out. Multiple people have issues with your comments and you're saying all of them are wrong.

By “all of them” are you talking about the post that made up stuff that I didn’t say and wholinator’s post about their feelings about somebody they’ve never interacted with? All of those two posts?

I appreciate your concern but “hey man, people are making stuff up in their heads about you and getting real mad about the stuff they are imagining. they’re saying you posted a value judgment about shaming on the internet, they’re saying that you posted Elvira Mistress Of The Dark is your aunt!” isn’t something that I can do much about. That’s just the internet for you.

Like I can’t do anything about wholinator or soulofmischief imagining that I wrote “shaming is bad and wrong and I don’t do it and if you caught me doing something like that it would undermine my entire point but also if you did it to me it would support your point and I’d be super owned” and basing their entire critique of what they may or may not have read on it
