    Since people began using voice to text dictation, I’ve pretty much ignored spelling errors and the odd placement of commas.

      Content is far more important than spelling as long as the point gets across well enough. I’ve done the same as you only long before when shortcuts like R and U were introduced and persisted. Picking out grammar and spelling errors instead of discussing the topic means you don’t have anything to contribute TO the topic, and lack of content is far worse of a crime than odd spellings.

      I have corrected spelling or grammar before, but only as a side note to be helpful, not to ridicule.

    There needs to be a term for someone that ignores everything like a sieve, but manages to catch the smallest of morsels off which to launch a fallacious diatribe, as though nothing else happened.

    They’re not.a.troll; they’re something quite different. A mix of insecurity, hyperfocusing, a tendency to exercise many argument fallacies, a resolve that can deny itself, no clear purpose in its behaviour beyond either “winning” or perhaps just seeking social interaction.

    I’d go with “Teflon” because nothing sticks, but it doesn’t cover their wannabe polemicist nature.
