Hey, props to you for being able to hear what I and others were saying and reflect, thats genuinely an incredibly difficult thing to do when critical comments on the internet almost always read as an attack. The emotional intelligence to reflect on your behavior when criticized by multiple faceless internet accounts is genuinely worth being very proud of ❤️

For my part, definitely could have conveyed my feelings less harshly, which is perhaps especially important when the person you're speaking to will be hearing many many voices all at once and you're just one of them. I let my frustration dictate how I conveyed my perspective and I'd like to apologize for that

Thank you for being willing to engage with me as a human despite my critical comment- this is what makes community, what builds common ground and respect among folks of differing perspectives. You've contributed very admirably to it by hearing folks' critisisms and reflecting on how you might want to engage differently

I hope you have a great day :)
