    if you’re not willing to engage with my source and are dismissing it in a petty way

    I tend to agree with you but there are people that loathe video content. I know I'm one. When that happens I ask kindly if there's a transcript, mind you, I don't just say "I won't watch a youtube video".

      Oh that's fair, I more disliked the way it was said immediately followed by "read a whole book" as if that's something I automatically have the energy and time to do. It feels like a cheap "i'm correct and you're wrong", a sort-of reverse "source?" with no attempt at dialogue. Maybe i'm wrong, tone is hard in text, but that rubbed me the wrong way when I try very hard to talk like there's another human being on the other side.

        Yeah, fully agreed, it was worded in a dick-ish dismissive way.
