I think probably the language and tone of the post more than either the data or the conclusions.

  Interesting. In the more socially-aware fora I'm familiar with, what's called "tone policing" or "tone trolling" is seen as a major faux pas, an aggressive act designed to shut people out of the conversation.

    Don't mean to offend anyone, but I think tone is usually the cause for something sounding "cringey"

    Are you implying you agree with that? I always thought that accusations of tone policing was the most childish thing about that kind of forum/community.
