Some guy I've never spoken to sent me a message threatening that he would never speak to me again and that he would excommunicate me from his dull and unpopular subreddit. (infosec.pub)

This friendly warning really has me rattled. He primarily talks about the fediverse. If he never talks to me again, it would be really bad. Unless I can find a way to make amends for my wrongs, I'll have to face the consequences. What do I do?

That is just bonkers.If you don't like it, you don't like it, but that's not someone else's problem. I had a young female co-worker for a while. Who came from a large female dominated family. Starting stories with girl this or girl that. I wasn't a girl, it didn't hurt my feelings. I always enjoyed talking with her.

Hell I'm from Missouri, where people have been known to use the word dude like they were smurfs.
