Oh bullshit. People make snarky comments for all sorts of reasons having nothing to do with wanting to provoke such reactions. And that snarky comments cause Hammy to react is not an indicator that those comments were intended to provoke. People have all sorts of reasons for their comments and the manner in which they are delivered which have nothing to do with attempting to elicit such reactions. So, no, I don't see your point other than to malign the motives and behavior of other people in defense of Hammy and his behavior. I don't think that's much of a point.
Ok, well that was just my advice. If when Ham is back, people want to keep poking at him for whatever weird reason, they are free to do so. But we already know what happens when they do, so I don't think anyone should be surprised when he loses his shit about it.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
