Seeing something I said inadvertently pissed people off feels way worse than general negative karma

Yeap, I'm totally with you on that. Indeed, IIRC from science studies, the average person's brain is -way- out-proportioned by sensitivity to negativity & threat-response than it is, all purry (like a happy cat) from positive feedback.

It's evidently an artifact from our total history of living in clans & tribes for approximately 300k yrs spent living that kind of live before 'digital, social media' came along. If you follow me.
