i would advise maybe toning down the strength of your criticism when addressing the creator of the content /2c


I appreciate you sticking up for me. I can see this comment being taken poorly by others. I also think we generally need to learn to empathize that the creator might experience our words different than how we mean them (and therefore be kinder when we post).

In this case, I was aware that the rabbit is tough to watch so I have the empathy for my viewer and the comment came across as honest rather than harsh. I don’t think you should be downvoted. If it was a different time or place then I 100% could have taken it the wrong way.
