A comment on The benefits of staying off social media. Parent comment
Don't. I understood you perfectly well.
It's not that I'm unable or unwilling to "take in" what you say. Nor am I angry or upset. I just don't suffer fools gladly[1].
>I hope you will eventually find a friend who can explain it to you better than I did
I understand the issue just fine, thanks. It's you who didn't understand me. I'll chalk that up to you not being a native English speaker.
>and that you will refrain to insult them just because you feel attacked
I didn't insult you because I felt attacked. I didn't intend to insult you at all.
Rather, I called you out for your nastiness and bad faith. Because you deserved it. And I stand by that assessment.
Your self-righteous[0] tone is unwelcome here (and in most places).
