    This is only a “contradiction” if you don’t understand that words have meaning and that meaning isn’t based on how happy you are.

    You can engage in discourse without resorting to condescension. You weaken your arguments.

      If the only way you can be convinced by an argument is if it makes you feel warm and fuzzy then… you are pretty much what The Algorithm has made you. Maybe work on that. Or keep tone policing. Up to you.

      But hey, I’ll keep in mind the importance of making you and others feel good when I… literally respond to what someone said.
