MODERATORS
The quality of online discourse suffers severely on weekends, particularly holiday weekends. I support and respect that you expect more. But, everything at scale is ,at best, moderate. Find your tiny home. Then, venture out only when you want. Consider using a couple of accounts to segregate conversations at home from conversations outside.
You're giving them too much credit. Yeah it would be nice if online discussions could be more civil but the "snide" comments mentioned were not worth getting upset about and one of them wasn't even snide at all but actually helpful and genuinely answering the question to which they responded defensively and playing the victim. That kind of victim mentality to actually helpful comments that maybe the original commenter didn't want to hear and editing to whine about downvotes is just as annoying as moderately uncivil comments.
You didn't understand that we seek better than average, making your judgements both unwanted and useless. Your failure in reading comprehension has made you a hypocrite.
Bravo, average user: You're meeting expectations.
Point out the "snide" in this. They asked a question and this comment answered their question honestly. You can attack me and insult me all you like (which funnily enough makes you the hypocrite considering I did not attack you and you're the one who was complaining about attacking comments) but it won't change the fact the the original commenter here that you're defending got upset and defensive about a decent comment honestly answering their question. Maybe you should check your own reading comprehension before going after that of others.
You started by interjecting mediocrity when not wanted, now open with a request and continue to strawman. I stopped reading due to your sense of entitlement.
If you want taught then I suggest you humble down and find yourself a mediocre teacher. I've better choices, such as the one expecting more from humanity than what you chose to deliver.
Yep, the whole thing was projection. You're complaining about toxicity in comments and yet you are exuding toxicity with every word.
Maybe instead of stopping reading, you should actually read and respond to it honestly instead of deflecting back into ad hominem attacks. If you are able to actually put forth an explanation defending your position instead of attacking me, then we could have a discussion about it. What was snide about that comment? What strawman did I make? As it stands, you're just doing what you're blaming everyone else of doing.
Why would you think I'd read this after my last post? Answer for yourself.
