They said elsewhere that they're autistic. The need to be exact and truthful when people generalize something like a community is something i identify with. Its why I dont really love the stormfront joke myself, just go along with it for community peace. This person to me is clearly well intentioned and is an example of the dunk impulse going too far because I think they're trying to do right.

ETA: Actually I got them mixed up with another user they never said they were autistic. But I still think they are well intentioned.

Their further response to me tells me they aren't well intentioned.
