This drama has unfolded for me in order as I scroll today and I’m loving it.
Guy would be much better off if he could understand that he misrepresented the community by using a “harmless joke meme format” that made out everyone to be rude to highlight “the stupidity of the few mean responses”…like of course you’ve made the whole community peeved now you ding bat, the crux of your meme is a gross over exaggeration which makes it a lie.
get insulted by edge case dickheads (normal amount for any online conversation it should be noted)
Make a mountain out if a mole hill, complain about it back to them using a meme
meme paints entire community as dickheads
They point out how dramatic, annoying, and stupid you’re acting and tell you you’re wrong because the meme format is inaccurate to what actually happened
Act more dramatic and stupid in response, fighting with people in subsequent threads.
It’s one of those great online moments where you stare at the unfolding text on your screen in disbelief and can only wonder about what life is like on the other side of these polished glass surfaces for some people
I think their original meme was inaccurate but not bad. The way they captioned it was the real issue but even that could read like a joke. But then the way they responded in the comments made it clear that this was not a joke.
If you notice the original thread really only has one mean comment which the community collectively downvoted. Then op comes back with their knickers in a twist calling the whole community bad.

I said it before, MAIN CHARACTER SYNDROME.

Every comment they made in their original thread was complaining about the mean response. Even to the really nice ones.
Oh no! A meme being a gross exaggeration?
That’s generally how memes work…
