You are now. Didn't seem to be previously.

I wasn't the one over-generalizing from personal experience. I didn't say "it's no big deal" as though that would be true for everyone. There's no hypocrisy, so spare us all the whataboutism.
- sdinsn 7y agoI was plenty aware before. I was sharing my personal experiences. Someone who is a 37year old retail worker is free to share theirs as well. It appears like you are a bad actor and will dismiss anything that violates your 'reality'.
- notacoward 7y agoSo interpreting your over-general statement exactly as written makes someone a bad actor? If you want to share personal experience, identify it as such ("for me") instead of expressing it as a general rule. If you want to provide a counterexample to an overly general statement, use words like "might" (as I did) to indicate that. Don't gaslight readers about what you originally said, and don't attribute evil motives to anyone who points it out. Those Reddit-level tricks will only convince anyone reading the exchange that you're the one arguing in bad faith.
