Comment on The terms "Mother's Day" and "Father's Day" is very anxiety-inducing for people who have been abused/neglected as a child.

  Yeah sure, saying “I hate this” is clearly an endorsement that it should continue to happen.

  Did I say that? No.

  Stop playing fucking games.

  It is neither an endorsement for it to continue, nor is it a demand for it to stop.

  It is “i hate it”. It is a statement of feeling.

  Learn the difference between is and ought. Stop mistaking your next thought for their next statement.

  Yes, hating something generally means you want it to stop. But you cannot be quoted as asking for it to stop until you actually say so.

      There’s no way you actually believe I’m a bot. You’re just running away from the conversation.

      Now, look:

      THIS is the comment I responded to. Observe how it is entirely unadopted by YOUR username. This is the comment I took issue with. Not what you said. The actual issue with what you said was that you entirely ignored the point of the OP, and what I said, to support the “it’s just marketing” idea, which belittles OP’s pain.

      OP just wanted to vent, not make suggestions for corporations.

        You took issue with what I said then. And you kept taking issue with it. And now you claim that you don’t take issue with it. So if you don’t just go away.

        You might be made of flesh and bones, but your level of understanding is on the level of a very bad chatbot.

      Stop saying that!!! I’m not a fucking bot!! I am a human being with thoughts and feelings and autism, and i am far too fucking sick of being called a robot my entire fucking life. I deserve respect and dignity, not to be treated like a defective toaster.

      I will not be bullied for standing up for another person. Never. I will not back down just because you tried to throw your weight around and oppress me.

        But you are not standing up for another person. You are standing up for your own misconception and misunderstanding and misreading of the room. You are fighting against what OP said because of your own misinterpretation of what they said.

        Nobody is oppressing you. I’m just sick of your useless pedantry and misunderstanding of everything that has been written here.

        Oppression does not mean that everyone has to listen to your misguided ramblings.
