I don’t understand how that’s supposed to work, you’d have to have posted some bad takes, and even if you did, “hey I made the wrong call based off what I believed at the time, I now understand where I was misled” isn’t going to turn anyone against you.

exactly. I wonder sometimes at comments. People seem to have limited experience with other people here, and are overly optimistic about how reasonable and kind people are… they are not. especially not in a social media setting.
Some of it too is differing audiences/communities. You might tell a joke in front of your poker bros that you wouldn’t tell in front of your kids … and there’s nothing wrong with that.
