this guy obviously got a lot of downvotes, so i don’t want to associate myself with that, or even stick my own neck out… because what’s the benefit? maybe i also get a bunch of downvotes? it makes me feel very sketched out. especially as someone who has had to mask their whole life, i have a hard time doing this in public.
but, i think he was joking/sarcastic. i could be wrong, because i am bad at reading social cues… but i’ve also spent a bunch of time practicing at it, and we people have a hard time detecting sarcasm… but i think this was it.
I won’t use /s and just eat the downvotes most of the time, but yeah, if you don’t want to do that, you gotta use it. Even if you think it’s ridiculous.

happy to hear evidence either way.
It was meant to be sarcastic. I guess the /s was needed after all.
