    Thanks for this, I missed their comments before deletion.

    Good on you for your thinking capacity as well, that seems to be getting kinda rare…

          A lot of people are and it’s a growing disease in online communities. It’s doubly bad because firstly it drains energy and it makes engaging with actually well intentioned but disagreeing people a lot harder because you are always expecting to just waste your energy
