There's no way you actually believe I'm a bot. You're just running away from the conversation.

Now, look:

THIS is the comment I responded to. Observe how it is entirely unadorned by YOUR username. This is the comment I took issue with. You came after. The actual issue with what you said was that you entirely ignored the point of the OP, and what I said, to support the "it's just marketing" idea, which belittles OP's pain.

OP just wanted to vent, not make suggestions for corporations.

Stop saying that!!! I'm not a fucking bot!! I am a human being with thoughts and feelings and autism, and i am far too fucking sick of being called a robot my entire fucking life. I deserve respect and dignity, not to be treated like a defective toaster.

I will not be bullied for standing up for another person. Never. I will not back down just because you tried to throw your weight around and oppress me.

Why do you need to believe that? Can't you comprehend that I might actually have a point?

Yeah sure, saying "I hate this" is clearly an endorsement that it should continue to happen.

Did I say that? No.

Stop playing fucking games.

It is neither an endorsement for it to continue, nor is it a demand for it to stop.

It is "i hate it". It is a statement of feeling.

Learn the difference between is and ought. Stop mistaking your next thought for their next statement.

Yes, hating something generally means you want it to stop. But you cannot be quoted as asking for it to stop until you actually say so.

I never said any single thing about YOUR statement. Look at the comment I responded to before you jumped in.

You have to be trolling at this point.

Like, I don't get what you're doing at all. It just strikes me as insensitive to reply to a post saying something upsets them, and just ignore the emotional content completely to say that the upsetting thing is just marketing. The implication is that they were dumb to get upset.

Why has this devolved so far, and why do you only want to discuss the content of YOUR reply to my reply to the original reply?

Obviously i know they said they hate it because they hate it. But that's not the same as demanding they stop it, is it? Why are you playing games with me like this?

Wtf are you talking about??? I'm not a bot FOR FUCK'S SAKE, stop trolling me. All I said, all I've EVER said, is that the top level comment i replied to was an insensitive reply. Then you popped in trying to elaborate on what that comment was saying -- completely ignoring what I had said -- and now for some reason you're upset that I don't want to talk about YOUR comment.

Why?? Why are you doing this to me?? You're driving me fucking INSANE.

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME??

the second part was from my post.

So OP never told anyone to stop using those terms... you put the words in their mouth.

Why should I consider what YOU said, when making statements about what OP wants?

You forget everything that was said just in the last post before.

No, that just wasn't relevant to what I was saying. Not even a little.

All I've ever done was explain why that top level comment was insensitive to the OP. Maybe you yourself should look back and re-read our conversation, and stop accusing me.

What about "I hate when websites use the terms" and "Makes me want to cry" tells you that OP wants websites to advertise with mother's day/father's day?

Don't put words in my mouth. I didn't say they wanted them to use the terms. I specifically said that you can infer they don't want them to use them.

But, like I said, there is no demand there, is there? You can't get an ought from an is.

what about "Websites shouldn't use the term for marketing/websites should allow you to opt out" tells you that I said people (and not only companies) shouldn't use these terms?

That quote is nowhere in the OP. What are you talking about? Seems to me you invented that statement entirely from whole cloth.

I did, nothing about people no longer using the terms was said in the OP. Please don't resort to wild claims of lying like that. They just said it's anxiety inducing and makes them want to cry. You can infer that they'd prefer it not to be used, but they didn't actually make any demands.

Yeah ofc, but boiling isn't always making soup, sometimes it's just boiling, and what you're "dumping out" isn't soup

I'm not suggesting that, and it didn't seem to me like OP was either

So, it's still just boiling.

It's called "boiling".

What i can or can't handle isn't relevant or what I'm talking about...

I'm telling you it sounds ignorant and insensitive

If you're trying to do that, you're doing terribly.

If someone calls themselves a feminist, but they don't acknowledge the struggles men face under patriarchy, they can hardly be called a feminist.

True, but who asked for any of that? This post is venting about how the holidays remind them of abuse, not asking why the holidays exist. What's supposed to be OP's reaction?

"Oh, you're right, I guess I'm dumb for being sad about holidays that only exist to sell cards. You've cured me!"

You're just giving up? It's easier to just admit you were wrong. Could that hurt?

You have to be trolling. This guy just perfectly explained why you're mistaken on both exponential curves, and the subject at hand. Why on earth are you still asking for the function of a graph you yourself have stated it is impossible to determine?
