        lol, I have been thinking about rules for a competition where you go on reddit to see if you can get certain types of disproportionate responses:

        • most innocuous foible for which someone recommends a divorce

        • most inoffensive post about Japan that causes someone to complain about WW2 war crimes

        • most reasonable mainstream position that causes someone to call you a tankie

        any other suggestions?

          Hi there, I see you mentioned Japan.

          Did you know that Japan had concentration camps comparable to Nazi Germany during WW2? It was called Unit 731, where thousands of prisoners, mostly Chinese, were subjected to lethal tests involving diseases, vivisection, and other forms of torture. These experiments aimed to develop biological and chemical weapons, resulting in an estimated 200,000 to 300,000 deaths.

          The more you know!

      Whereas my unsolicited advice as a lemming is way more fun. So, to start with, im gonna need you to get an obsidian dagger, and look up where to buy live chickens.

      Also, get some gloves, bleach, and antiemetics; this is gonna get messy.

      Maybe they posted in an “advice” sub. That doesn’t make redditors not terrible at giving advice, just maybe it wasn’t unsolicited.
