    Where did I say that they don’t have problems? I didn’t mean to convey that, which is why I didn’t say anything of the sort.

    It is possible to call out shitty behavior without dismissing the existence of problems.

      You didn’t explicitly state it you implied it by ignoring almost everything the guy you responded to said. Again, I don’t think you meant to come off that way but that’s what happens when you pick one small part of a large post to respond to and do so using negative and corrective language. You imply the rest was received in an equally negative fashion but was even less worthy of response.

        No, you inferred something I neither said nor implied based on your assumption that not mentioning the irrelevant part of their post meant something.

          You’re still doing it. What you’re calling the irrelevant part of the post was more than 90% of it. You chose not to address any of it and to act pretty condescending in your reply. Now I’m telling you how some people are going to interpret that and you’re refusing to acknowledge it as a valid interpretation. I don’t give a shit if you accept what I’m telling you or not but at this point you can’t say you’re unaware that you’re coming off like an asshole. Do with that information whatever you like.

            I don’t really care if you think I’m an asshole for not wasting time on the part of the post I agree with that wasn’t the part being discussed. Maybe you should go back and read the conversation again and engage with what I wrote instead of what you assumed I meant.
