    There are contexts where such a statement is fine. Even in a context where it could be construed as rude and prejudiced, it still doesn’t matter, because it’s such a milquetoast insult. A shitty throwaway putdown on the level of ‘okay, boomer’ or ‘male, pale and stale’.

    Overmoderation on the public web is as much of an issue as its lack.
