It seemed to be a totally factual description of the poster. Wrapping your comment up in a "that's not called for" false-call for civility while ignoring the reality on the ground that our friends, our fellow citizens may be affected by this kind of ongoing language, yet people REFUSE to help, because of... why?
Leon, why did you flip the tortoise on its back? You aren't helping it, why is that?
- Chris2048 6y agoNo, it's an insult, and any sentiment expressed in using it is entirely subjective opinion, not "fact". > false-call for civility Is this another "fact"? Got the proof that the call for civility is false? Otherwise this is bad-faith. > ignoring the reality The "reality" you describe is disputed. > people REFUSE to help they refuse to participate in a bad-faith, antagonistic discourse. There is no attempt at "help" here, just demanding your perspective be accepted as fact, and insulting all who do not obey.
- Dylan16807 6y agoThis doesn't meaningfully help the people on the ground. Even for a positive change, the worst possible outcome of this is people feeling like they've done their part and then putting less effort into changing things like discriminatory social policies. And I'm still not seeing which part was "hysterical".
