You might be prone to perceiving threats where there aren't any then. The only threat here was reddit's potential loss in revenue - offering to let himself be bought out for half of what they would supposedly "lose" in a year is extremely generous.

Of course, this is all a deliberate reframing by reddit. Reddit wasn't going to "lose" anything so much as "not get".

Right, I think some people are like this.

For example, I had a boss once that would interpret everything I said as a threat (I had a friendship with the owners of the company).

It's just, stupid, and insulting.
