I honestly hate that people do this. Maybe its because I work online in customer service and I chat with people online so I always know that I'm talking to a real person - but even before I worked online, I always assumed I was talking to a real person on the other end.
It's wild to me that people become so incredibly inconsiderate that they don't even think they're talking to a human and instead interpret it as "oh I'm just arguing an idea" yeah, you're arguing an idea with a HUMAN.
Sometimes I catch people doing that because they'll respond to me like I'm someone else and I have to be like, hey no, I'm not that person, I'm my own person and you are in fact talking to me now. A person who will react to things being said. Cause you know, human.
