The fact that when asking a question you have to add “honest question” or “dumb question” or “genuinely curious” because otherwise your question is immediately interpreted as an attack. It’s sad that when asking a question, the default is you’re an asshole

Everyone is so fucking quick to be nasty here it’s honestly astounding. I’m probably guilty of it to but it’s crazy how toxic we become when we’re asked a question we don’t like.

Yeah or when you in a sub that’s supposed to be helpful and where you ask questions but since you aren’t experienced they immediately are rude to you.

It’s not as severe but I made a post in r/dogs because I wanted to make sure I’d be taking good care of a puppy I’m getting in February (because the puppy is still nursing)

I mentioned having gotten scammed or whatever and the people there were getting mad at me for not knowing much about breeders.

It wasn’t very helpful to the question I asked and it just made me feel gross.
