    Ask and ye shall receive! 😋

    Maybe I just come across really aggressively or something and I’m completely oblivious to it, somehow? 🤷‍♂️ I dunno… I feel like any time I just try to participate in whatever random conversation I stumble across that interests me on here and have the audacity to disagree even slightly with someone, it’s like they just suddenly go from 0 to absolute fucking bell end instantly.

    I am genuinely trying to be as polite as possible, tried to demonstrate my willingness to acknowledge being wrong in the face of evidence if given some, and didn’t even call his mom a cunt or anything (as far asI I’m aware lol)… I mean, shit, sometimes I just like playing Devil’s advocate for the hell of it, regardless of whatever my personal feelings regarding “X topic” may be. Maybe that’s why I don’t get the whole sudden aggression when faced with even the smallest hint of dissension at all times!

      You were definitely the aggressor in this situation, yes.

      This was the instigating comment.

      Have a read from the start until that comment, and I’m sure you can tell the mood switch you brought to the table with that comment.

      I’m not blaming you. Sometimes we read into things. Interpret things that aren’t being said. Maybe that’s what happened to you here. Sometimes it happens.

      ❤️ I’d go back and apologize to that person, for calling them illiterate and stupid etc.

      Have a good one, buddy!
