I know it's a hard ask on this site, but I need you to start parsing content and not tone. It was a helpful bit of context, even if it was a bit vitriolic.

The content was 'you need to get your head checked'. That isn't tone, that directly implying that if you hold that position, there is something wrong with you. It's rude and unnecessary.

Why should I waste time parsing content and not tone? Why can't the commenter just avoid the tone? It even saves time since you can write less!

Some battles are simply not going to be won.

I, for example, dislike reading comments complaining the submission (or another comment) is LLM generated. Focus on the content, not the style.

I'm not going to have my way, and nor shall you.

It depends on if we expect posters to be informative and include nuance.
