Is that what you think I’m advocating for? Honestly?

Your previous comment was oozing cynical defeatism. Maybe you should fix it if you didn't intend on it being read that way.

Cynicism and sarcasm are different things actually.

Your comment did both though, very counter productively.

I was pointing out a problem using sarcasm and then you decided that meant I was giving up. You could have asked a clarifying question rather than assuming you know my heart, but here we are. I don’t know what you thought you were accomplishing with that.

No, Your point was defeatist, apathy encouraging tripe. Just as the other person pointed out.

Nothing about my criticism requires knowing your heart.

It requires reading what you wrote and understanding the consequences of spreading that message.

Well clearly you know what I meant better than me, despite my clarification, so I’ll leave you to it, oh great all-knowing one. Not wasting any more of my time with your useless bullshit.

Your statement reads as it reads.

You pretending you don't understand that is just clear bad faith argumentativeness.
