Always remember that one internet dweller with 10 accounts can consistently manipulate downvotes to change perspective of certain opinions.

    They frequently get a fuck ton of down votes for spewing batshit crazy rhetoric.

    What aren’t you getting?

          Well that explains this:

          I said I had them tagged as ‘vegan’ douche. Which is context.

          They genuinely believe saying someone is a vegan was sufficient context to explain. They’re just a bigot towards vegans.

        Your response/question wasn’t exactly neutral in tone. Maybe don’t take a (second) swing here.

          Saying you have someone tagged as a douche with zero context “wasn’t exactly neutral in tone” either. Which is why I asked.

            I said I had them tagged as ‘vegan’ douche. Which is context.

            Also I’m referring to OP in that post, so you know, the context is… The thread were both in.

            It wasn’t intended to be neutral in tone. I was clearly making a remark at what’s behind OPs entire posting of this thread. Clearly others had no issue connecting these dots.

            You’re 0/3.

              Why are you so hostile? I asked a question. That’s it. That’s literally all I did. I’m not a mind reader. All you had to say was “this poster has a history of posting snarky things that get downvoted” when I asked and it would’ve made sense. Not everyone replying to you is attacking you. Not everyone is keeping score. Not everyone is tone policing you. Believe it or not, some people just wanna talk. Some people are just curious when they don’t understand why something was said. Is that so hard to believe? Is that really so hard to believe foggy? That when I asked you how it was relevant I was just curious how it was relevant? That I didn’t have an ulterior motive? That I wasn’t mad? That I wasn’t trying to get you?

                  Bruh.

                  Sit back for a minute and take some deep breaths. Everything is going to be okay. You’re getting all worked up over nothing.

                    It’s feels like so many people online just willfully interpret everything as rudely as possible. It’s so exhausting sometimes.
