A user here repeatedly tried to argue that they physically could not provide an answer without knowing the content. I think they realised their logic didn’t make sense after I explained it clearly, because they stopped replying.
It’s not that they need to know that to provide a potential answer, it’s that they want to know that before they decide to help you bypass a filter.

I’m still here. I just realized that you’re never going to tell us what you said.

Look I appreciate if you were trying to help. But what you were saying honestly didn’t make sense.
I really don’t think I was being hostile. I tried to explain my position clearly, that for multiple reasons I’m unable to state exact comments that have been removed, though I gave you general examples. You seemed to ignore this multiple times and at that point I didn’t know how else to explain it.
And you tried to argue that you weren’t able to provide a character format without knowing the exact content, inaccurately comparing it to someone not telling you what problem they were having with their car, even though I have explained the problem and there’s nothing preventing anyone from helping with it in this case.
All it requires is the knowledge and willingness to suggest a text character that doesn’t get removed.
This is really hard to understand for me, if someone else asked for help with this, I would just help if I could. I wouldn’t try to determine what the person is commenting.
So are you still saying you can’t physically help with what I’m asking? Or do you just not want to help unless I tell you the content, because you can’t trust that what I’m commenting is completely innocuous and getting deleted for no reason? Do we not trust each other at our word anymore in this society?

On the Internet, the answer to this question has always been the same. It hasn’t changed since I got in on an old 14.4k baud modem.

This place reeks of a lack of empathy, seriously. I explained my situation and it does make sense. But people (not you specifically) are being really rude.

I don’t think there’s a lack of empathy, especially when you consider that we may be concerned for the more numerous viewers who could potentially see your comments if we help you bypass the filters that you seem to be running into more than just occasionally.

Trust me, you are rare as a more reasonable person on this platform by the fact that what you’re saying actually makes sense and is somewhat kind natured. So I appreciate that at least.

Also, everyone knows people on Reddit (and the culture here is basically the same as Reddit) are really rude and unempathetic to anyone asking for help. So this isn’t limited to this thread at all.

I provided examples already, and I also said that I’m not trying to say anything bad in any way. But people don’t believe me, and demand to know more, and won’t accept the answers I give. They assume the worst of me and make a lot of false accusations.
On top of that, people insult me for no reason.
Everything I say gets downvoted no matter how reasonable it is.
Yes, this is unempathetic. I know empathetic people. This is not that.
