Does that make it acceptable, or worthwhile of discussing? I don’t think so.

They didn't want to discuss, they wanted you to put in a modicum of effort to go look up some easily attainable information. You are the one that tried to tone police, so being met with moderate sarcasm is the least bad thing that could have happened

Disagree

K. Good luck sticking your nose in places it doesn't belong then getting upset when people don't appreciate it

You keep calling it "tone policing", I call it "strategy recommendation".

And no thanks, assuming that I don't know what I'm talking about, is not a nice thing. I've seen plenty of that "easily attainable information", and I still don't agree.

sticking your nose in places it doesn't belong

Plus gatekeeping. How exactly do you figure my nose doesn't belong here?

You keep calling it “tone policing”, I call it “strategy recommendation”.

You can call whatever you want, it is still tone policing. Telling people they should not punch up because it is not productive is square in that definition, especially on a thread that started with a very silly joke.

Giving advice where it wasn't asked for is sticking your nose in places it doesn't belong. I don't claim to know your personal intersections, and apologize if you thought I meant you don't belong in this particular community
