I understand that, but it's literally in the preview text of the article (at least in the Jerboa app for android), and more importantly it's stated in the fucking body text of the post.

I didn't read the article either (this time). There's no excuse here.

People get upset about "tone policing" lately, but I can't just stay silent when it's this blatant that people are complaining about something that isn't even true.

Edit: I'm not seeing the comments that were talking about this as if they had removed the age minimum entirely now. Guess they've either been deleted or I blocked those users earlier and don't remember that I did that.

Hey, I'm with you. Anyone commenting on an article without reading it deserves to be called out for it.
