Due to post about feds nocking on their door and asking about Hexbear, which was posted outside of fake news and could be seen as serious.

    I dunno I think the Nintendo post, and really most of Melina's posts, exhibited how hexbears ND usersegment is perceived and treated by a large part of the userbase.
    Many ND people have trouble parsing irony and sarcasm. They can also probably relate to struggling socially, doing something silly like buying a switch because of a misunderstanding and then getting irrationally angry about it. The people responding genuinely to that post mainly seemed to be people who sympathised with the experience and who offered coping methods and strategies for future use.
    The amount of people that mocked users for engaging genuinely and kindly with someone, was honestly very disappointing to me, though not surprising.
