I understand that is what you want, but you cannot reserve yourself from being interpreted when posting on a public forum.

The language you chose to use and the details you chose to focus on is what triggered the response. If your point was that the cartoons was distracting, you could have made that clear in a less disrespectful way (or let the content speak for itself), or perhaps consider if it was worth contributing to the discussion.

Again, you double down on one definition of this particular subculture in another reply. It is reminiscent of how others have tried to define what certain subcultures related to sexual orientation (some now more mainstream) entail, while not being part of them, and I hope you understand how this can be problematic. I appreciate that this may not have been your intention.
