Be me:

Seek advice on how to obtain material to repair gloves. Include anecdotal colour and context.

Get told "buy better gloves"

Point out that is an unhelpful comment

Promptly get downvoted and "ok then lets argue"

.....are the NTs ok?

    Let's not descend to tribalism, shall we? You found an asshole, it doesn't mean NTs are not OK. Some of the most caring people I know are NT.

    Couple of arseholes, more than one downvote. Still not understanding why.

    I've had to sit with this for a few days because it really felt like I was being attacked for performing incorrectly.

    I think - well, hope -that we are having different conversations.

    How I perceived it:

    • I made a comment using a well known internet rhetoric device illustrating behaviours I didn't understand
    • you castigated me for "tribalism" and said I shouldn't judge based on the actions of one person
    • I pointed out it was more than one person and i still didn't understand why the behaviour occurred

    Your comment here...does not make sense to me in this context.

    My comment is because of this:

    Couple of arseholes, more than one downvote. Still not understanding why.

    I understood exactly zero of that. Nada. The mention to down votes was particularly puzzling as, at the time, there was exactly one downvote on your comment. I'm still no closer to understanding you there.

    The full context mentioned that after I pointed out the unhelpfulness of the comment I got downvoted and - they literally said this - "ok then let's fight"

    Efit; on review it was"argue", not fight.

    I'm not sure if your instance shows ratios, but I had multiple downvotes, and some upvotes.
