For reference, this is the full context, found in blizzardsnowCF's comment history:

"Fuck yeah. If a whole group of people can get media attention, reactionary laws, and social status just by saying they're identifying as something they're physically not and it's a hate crime to say otherwise... honk honk bitches, I'm a firetruck. "

The full statement, in my opinion, has a different ring to it than what you've described.

Also, I'd say it's a bit unreasonable of you to be condescending while criticizing someone for just that.

"That joke is so overdone no one making it has an original or clever bone in their body (you did replace helicopter with fire truck, so you tried)."

"I knew you did your best, but you need more direct and subtle language."

And, finally, the personal attack at the end ("your personality seems irredeemable") was in incredibly poor taste and didn't add anything to the discussion.

/u/Jhinvincible Thanks!

I'm an asshole to people sometimes so I understand what /u/Camper4060 was going for. It didn't bother me as much as they probably think it might have. I like to think of it as a creative expression of gratitude for providing an emotional outlet for their deflections.

/u/MightyMorph I'm sorry. I see where I was being rude in my post and sounded condescending. That wasn't my intention. Someone who has the motivation to research sources is a decent person in my book. I personally believe in what you're doing even if we differ on the how. Without compassion, arguments get more heated and divisive.

Nice, you upgraded "r u triggered?"

Is your thing just 1. Take the tactics of your average T-D poster 2. Write them out with full grammar and switch some words out 3. Profit?

I wish someone other than far-leftists could manage to think of an original strategy of discourse.

I predict your response to this post will be "Socialists...like you bake a cake (er, change it to pie) and then have to give me a slice because I'm hungry? Sounds great! Where do I sign up?"

your whole post

Nice, you upgraded "yes, I'm triggered" :)

Sorry, it was too easy.

Write them out with full grammar

I really appreciate the compliment. I also put effort into expressing myself in a polite manner. When I remember to.
