    it’s strange how some of y’all are getting upvoted while i got 18 downvotes and someone calling me a pedophile when i said the same thing

    the dogpiling on this website is crazy, it’s just like reddit in that sense

        yeah, true. it’s also i guess this issue being sensitive and people in these very online spaces not realizing they have an extremist view on this which is completely detached from the real world

            i’m aware, i have 30 downvotes on my first comment atp, definitely way past the point where people can assess my comments with a sound mind, so there’s no point in pulling out the silk gloves

      It is very hard, without writing a mini essay, to convey all the relavent context, tone and meaning via a text based comment.

      Often what people write will end up being interpreted differently by people reading it and different to your intentions.

      Also the, for lack of a better term, “dog pile” effect really matters. If the first few people down vote you, that changes how successive people will interpret your message. “Maybe it seems harmless but it’s -3, so I might have missed some context and it’s more nefarious than I realised” etc.
