I swear on Reddit you couldn't post anything without having to spend 5 minutes proof-reading it to make sure there wasn't a way to misinterpret anything intentionally or unintentionally and that you haven't left any gaps in your explanation that someone could fill for you. If you missed anything some parasite would downvote you, twist what you said against you to make you look like something worse than Hitler and rally up everyone against you.
Fuck that place.
People still do the same here, sadly :/
Yup, it’s really sad because very few speak out in defense of anyone but themselves. Hell, I saw a user bully another user here and heavily imply they were mentally disabled. A few users defended the bullied user, the bully doubled down. Hours later the bullied user returned to mention they had COVID… so you might imagine the bullying let up, but the bully doubled down, yet again. Followed by more mentally disabled remarks. Looking back, appears the bully stopped using said account entirely and is likely under a new username. But it’s disappointing how few users actually said something. We have to keep this place clean from the shitty old Reddit behaviors.
