| Another factor for genuine sensory issue vs. bad faith is the medium being used. If someone refuses to read an argument BECAUSE IT'S WRITTEN LIKE THIS!! ! their complaints about 'yelling' can be ignored, it's only a symbolic representation of yelling, the angry writing isn't actually louder. On the... |

The one is a request for considerate behaviour, the other is a bad faith rhetorical trick where one attacks the lan... |
