I like when people start inventing whole backstories for why the person did it that are just incredibly elaborate reasons you probably deserve it, actually

Absolutely wild to me how many people treat "innocent until proven guilty" as part of interpersonal conflicts where it is very, very clear that someone is guilty and is simply lying/using that idea as a shield.

Like dude Judge Judy isn't in the room with us, you ate the cookie just fess up

This legal principle that exists so that the state doesn't arbitrary hang people (a principle which is absolutely not adhered to by the state) is the basis on which you shall judge all strangers' interactions discussed on the internet. - The Pedant Code of 2011, 35 U.S.C. § 72301 et seq. (2011)

I've had offline discussions that go exactly that way. There's even a continuation of the stupidity.

Me: Okay then, you're not listening anyway so this conversation is over.

Them: Why do you have to be so rude about it?

It's crazier in-person because you can literally watch as their brains slowly chug out what they think is the strongest defense for a guy they've never met

It's how I came to the realization that the brain rot is caused by the capacity for independent thought being overwritten by thought-cancelling slogans and buzzwords. Basically a computer virus, only for the mind. A "mind virus" if you will.
