Ok so yes I was projecting onto the article creator. You are correct about that. However I stand by my point that was the writing and the choice of image are jaringly at odds. I.e.

“Here’s person A, look at this serious question they asked about a serious topic, oh and he’s a non serious gif of them at the end” it subtly underminds the validity of what that person said. It is quite subtle, but that’s also part of my point. Prejudices can be very subtle, and I was calling that out.

As a standalone image, I am with you in that description. However, my description is me accentuating my point, not a subconscious outpouring, let alone a reading of that image.

I’m not enraged, but I also wasn’t in the mood to just scroll on by that time. If you read anything into that then all I can say is that you’re mistaken. I get it, there’s a lot of unhinged people out there (such as for the reason you described) but I am confident in my beliefs being overall soundly grounded (if not perfect).
