I have upvoted this comment. Even though I’m not thrilled with the way chaosmosis has been conducting emself, “You’re being hurtful, I don’t like you, leave me be” is a reasonable sentiment and doesn’t need to be attacked.
I downvoted the comment as a (mildly) inappropriate personal attack. It’s not all that much different in nature to other acts of social aggression against the reputation of an individual. Occasionally a context will arise where such an utterance is justified but this isn’t one of them.
Regarding the ‘leave me be’ in particular, people do not have the right to choose when others are permitted reply to public utterances—and such a power would be far too exploitable were it to be granted.
