    Well yeah I agree we should all be as honest as possible, but there's nice way and a shitty way to say things. I'm just saying try to err on the side of the nice way as that's all you can do in terms of being inoffensive. We're basically saying the same thing tbh, which is don't worry too much about word choice, just do your best.

      I see that now! I need to stop being so combative online, reddit has trained me to take every reply as a criticism and it's such a bad habit.

      Same here! I find myself gearing up for a fight with every reply sometimes, and I have to remind myself that people aren't fighting with me always, especially on saidit
