Well that is how it comes across. Mainly because I like and wouldn't want to hurt your feelings.
Its like saying "describe this red dress without using the words red or dress".
I appreciate it, but that's kind of silly. You're basically saying I can't say one time how I feel about something bc it will make ppl not want to say them anymore. Tooth fairy comparisons run rampant on this forum. I've never said a word. This is the first time that I'm like "yeah, it is insulting, here's why." I really don't see why anyone would object to me voicing that.
"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."
