@AtPlume@autism101@actuallyautistic That's a good point, I completely missed that.
Conversations with friends and colleagues usually aren't actually adversarial (ymmv), but they're stressful due to the high likelihood of misunderstandings, exacerbated by the time pressure.
Online conversations have a much greater likelihood of actually turning adversarial, be it through misunderstandings or trolls.
That adds a different kind of stress.
