    So, this is where it all went wrong. For some reason, you thought that “ignorant and insensitive” were being directed at your reply to my comment, and not to the comment I was originally responding to. Perhaps you forgot that my original comment was a reply to someone else? Either that or you’ve been trolling the whole time.

    Also, this marks the moment where you change the subject away from whether that comment was insensitive (probably because you forgot about that comment, or wanted to pretend you had), and towards discussing whether OP made any demands, which was never an issue on my mind. Damn fine trolling work, I must say, keeping me distracted for so long.

    The text of the original post demonstrably does not contain the phrase you attribute to it. And i have provided evidence of the comment to which I was referring, which is not your own. There is no further proof necessary; and you yourself have even quoted that same post, which even in your attempt, still did not contain the phrase you claim. Only your own comment did.

    You have not provided any evidence which supports your claims. Your quotes only prove my point: the OP did not request for this to stop, just stated that they “hate” it.

    Further, I even provided reasoning by way of example: my hatred of soap operas and Tesla not motivating a wish for their destruction.

    What more do you want? Like I’ve already said, if i misunderstood, then correct me. You have failed to do so.

    This really doesn’t need to go as far as it has. You never even needed to reply to me, because you were off topic and not saying anything relevant to my point, which is that their comment was off base.

    Yes, I am standing up for OP. I am standing against the “it’s just marketing” idea. The “they should stop” idea was uttered by you, not by OP. You can hate something without demanding for it to stop: I hate soap operas, but don’t demand they stop. I hate Tesla, but don’t demand they should shut down.

    If I have misinterpreted OP, then quote where they clearly and unequivocally demanded for it to stop, or where they stated that it was more than just marketing.

    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 unadorned by YOUR username. This is the comment I took issue with. You came after. 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.

    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.

    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.
