Why are people taking this seriously?

This is c/funny, a serious place for real public discourse. There's no funny business here! Wipe that smile off your face!

Cuz it makes me (and others) a little sad. :(

You should harden the fuck up.

Rude. Possibly trolling, even. This also makes me sad.

Let's try an actual dialogue tho, rather than just me slinging declarations at you:

Let's say someone is mean to you in real life; for the sake of brevity let's just say that someone insults your mother without any provocation.

Is it your fault if you feel an emotional reaction, or are you just having a natural reaction to someone making your world a worse place by spreading toxicity?

And if it's online instead of in real life, would you consider the outcomes to be different? Let's discuss. :)

Other people don't have the ability to make me sad. I don't really give a flying fuck about most of them.
