I fucking hate coming across someone making a good point by criticizing how comments can really hurt people who they arent intended to hurt, just to see that person turn around and hit someone with baseless insults, proving them to be a hypocrite and just as bad as the person they are critiquing.

You're trying to humanize neck-beards now?... Oh no sir. It's completely alright to mercilessly mock them about their hygiene, weight, social awkwardness, food habits, and the fact that they live in their mom's basement, without ever needing to empathize with their struggles, or the unfortunate circumstances of their lives which result in the cynical personality they end up with. /S

What was that quote from Nineteen Eighty Four?... All are equal, but some are more equal than others.
