So, we’ve all had a... time on Reddit lately. And I’m here to recognize it, acknowledge that our relationship has been tested, and begin the “now what?” conversation.

acknowledge that our relationship has been tested

This is so emotionally manipulative / abusive, and says everything anyone needs to know about reddit/spez. It's like if someone burns down your house and says "look i'm here to acknowledge that your house has been burned down, but we can still work things out bestie <3"

Yeah.

"I'm done bullying you now! It's time to move on and be friends again. :)

...

What? You want an apology? Why are you so pigheaded and angry and clinging to the past and unwilling to work things out? We're all adults here, so let's be level headed and reasonable about this. Stop yelling. You could at least be civil. You're the problem, and you pushed me into this. Don't make me the villain."

And of course that passive tense "has been tested" so they can avoid claiming responsibility and try to frame it as "both sides" at best. But really more like "me right, you wrong, I have big stick."

Barf.
