First, I sincerely wish you happiness. There is no 'winning' to be had when we treat people as enemies. I don't know you, but I witnessed your behavior here. My reaction was to your behavior, not to you as a person.
> I'm unsure if you meant to do this, but your comment comes off as gaslighting: you don't know what's going on and you asserted something that is false as true
No, I didn't make any assertion. I asked questions based on your attack on the author. You comment was completely out of context of the article, so it seemed off-base. I can understand if you have inside knowledge, but your reaction was still not a good look to the majority of people like myself who are not.
> Next time... ...I encourage you to do a little bit of Googling.
Your behavior is still illustrating some of the author's point. Some individual/group cultures are cesspools of unhappy/combative people. As someone who has no desire to 'pick a side' of a language community battle, I identified with the author's lack of enthusiasm for a particular community, without knowing all the details. There's nothing wrong with that.
