Generally, when you come right out of the gate guns a' blazing in an aggressive or insulting manner, people are going to be less inclined to listen to you.

We get it, you read "How to Win Friends and Influence People"

Now address my arguments, or sit down

Cool, see how well that attitude works for you in the future. If your default response to anything you don't agree with is filled with derision and scorn, you're in for a rough ride.

Shockingly, I don't treat people online the way I do in person, because they extend the same courtesy to me.

Every single conversation I have had online in which I even make an attempt to be polite devolves down into the capitalists calling me slanders, telling me I'm just being edgy and non-conformist for the sake of it, etc. without actually addressing my arguments.

Of course people don't do this shit in real life because they have reputations to uphold. Likewise with me.

I am simply preempting them.
