This has been a consistent issue I have seen on Lemmy over Reddit since day one, TBH.
Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately?

I have noticed more people inferring things from a small part of a reply and rather than read and try to understand it, they insted get upset about it and reply back about what they think the op said.

No it hasn’t! That’s just what they want you to believe. You heard nothing! Make him repent Asmodai!

It’s what comes with more users. As people you don’t know start writing in styles you’ve only seen parroting arguments you disagree with, the urge to shut things down increases.
Plus, there ends up being more stuff to read in the same amount of time, which leads to shallower reading to cover it all.

yep.
i will write out three paragraphs… get multiple replies about like three words I said that are taken totally out of context.

try to understand it
Why do you think they can’t understand it? Are you saying their stupid? All lemmy users are stupid except you? Look at smarty mcsmartpants over here

Same with going off the headlines. I am well aware that we lose 90%+ of communication over text, but damn, some of these fucking people. You have to learn to couch your comment in such a way that even obvious sarcasm and the like is obvious.
To all those joking about being autists and not getting social clues, I see you.
