Because the inability or unwillingness of commenters to separate unrelated context from the matter at hand is frustrating and distracting. It does seem like virtue signaling to me because the original commenter goes off an unrelated tangent. "this word you've used has reminded me of something I don't like and so I'm going to complain about it instead of discussing the actual topic." Speaking personally it bothers me because it implies either the OP intended to be offensive, or that it was careless to use language that's not devoid of any other context. Neither are reasonable in this case, so it's feels needlessly intrusive, and distracting. I probably wouldn't feel this way if they commenter attempted to show an assumption of good faith by asking if they considered the context others might have related to the word 'pimp'. Instead of asserting it's outright wrong to be willing to use it. > I'm not a fan of it is this context. And I hate it in this other context. Obviously the word itself is always a bad word to use. Because the context I care about it clearly the most important. |
