He relatively often posts something that may hurt one's feelings but every time I asked for clarification, it turned out it was all about misunderstanding.Instead, people want pleasant little lies that make them feel good about themselves and/or the world around them.
Or maybe they just want me to agree with them.
I don't know, so maybe I shouldn't care, either.

If the listener has a different universe of context and applies it to what they hears, a misunderstanding can easily emerge.
This is why I believe in clarifications.
