      Are you really incapable of understanding that the comment was broadly about people killed in the name of religion, and “burning at the stake” was synechdoche for a larger phenomenon? Or are you just playing dumb to be a troll?

        The person responded to me with a specific comment that I responded to specially by staying within the wheelhouse of the topic.

        Are you really incapable of understanding that some peope don’t want to deviate from the subject at hand before changing to another?

          No, you just completely failed to understand the comment and therefore the subject at hand.

          If you don’t understand that a specific example or phrase is frequently used as a stand-in for a broader subject, and you can’t figure out what the subject is and therefore the meaning of the comment, then you are illiterate.

            Or I have ASD. Did you think of that maybe? I responded in kind to the subject I was provided.

            A white knight was not necessary here, yet- here you are. Maybe walk away and stop trying to edit the discussions of others?

            And in the event you stil think I’m a troll, I’ll go ahead and block you so as to dismiss that idea. Sound good to you?
