What it looks like, after I have actually bothered really check (unlike you) is that it took three days for reddthat.com and lemmy.world to sync up.

Nice unsupported claim. I see a comment of mine with a comment of yours replying three days later. No ambiguity there.

I didn’t change the subject, I directly addressed something you said,

Good that you said “something”, you slippery devil, because it indeed was one thing among many, the others of which you ignored.

Accusing someone of distracting or changing the subject when they respond to something you said is highly dishonest, and I think you know that.

It’s not dishonest when I mean it. And I do, because you laser focused on that one statement while ignoring the others. And this being a new subject, unrelated to the actual conversation (which, may I remind you, is about your comment appearing to be hostile, and not about how long people take to reply!!) it is clearly dishonest of you to ignore the original subject to focus in on this. My statement earlier was simply an aside, which it was it was tacked on to the end.

I will contest your subjective interpretation of my “tone”

All interpretations are subjective. I see you’re trying to muddy the waters here.

(I’m not even sure how you can get someone’s tone from text)

Yet another attempt to weaken my statement without addressing it.

when you accept that my only intent here was to understand something I didn’t understand.

Did I say otherwise? No. So why should I recant a statement I didn’t make?

So do you want this to end or not?

Of course.

The fact that you keep replying suggests you don’t.

How so? Prove that.

Prove me wrong and don’t reply to this.

“Prove you don’t want me to rob you and give me your money willingly.”

See, I can make a false ultimatum, too.
