It has happened before. Not on here, but on another forum.
Would you like to explain to me why you think I am being condescending?
Minimalist said some things to me and I responded to them by saying that no matter what he said about me that I still cared for him.
Why is this a problem for you?
If you can answer that, then I will answer your question.
It's a problem because it's completely clear you don't actually care, this is just another tool in your proselytizing arsenal; appearing benevolent. We've had folks like you around before, you know.
More importantly, it's a problem because the subtext is that you care for us in spite of our being filthy heathens. It's an "it's okay, you ass, I love you anyway because I'm like Jesus, whose grace and compassion you clearly can't understand." It's divine tone trolling!
Now answer my question.
