Another player who was at the table during the incident sent me this meme after the problem player in question (they had a history) left the group chat.

Felt like sharing it here because I’m sure more people should keep this kind of thing in mind.

    You asked why the comment was getting downvoted. I responded with how the comment could be interpreted in a way that warrants downvotes.

    You seem to have taken that proposed explanation very personally for some reason.

        It depends on what the author was actually trying to say. I’ve never pretended to know what their intention was, and they haven’t added any further commentary to let us know.

      I took it personally because you’ve put that “implying Nazis were not as bad” part as if it’s normal thought process. It’s really not, I only see such when the one expressing it has already made up their mind and is just trying to silence\condemn the initial commenter. I haven’t ever seen that IRL being expressed sincerely. It’s always “burn the witch”.
