Isn't this site supposed to be supportive??
I don't think YOU are being passive aggressive. Sorry if the reply made it seem that way. When you were playing with the block/unblock (and had me temporarily blocked as part of the experiment), I couldn't see your post and was confused about who Moonyouto was replying to... And I noticed that replies from at least one of the people who posted on this thread earlier were gone, so I assumed it was a response to something from that person (it didn't make sense that it was a reply to mine)... And frequently people will post something really negative towards someone and then block them immediately so that it is everyone BUT the person it it regarding can see it. THAT is what I assumed happened and what I called passive aggressive. I can see why it appeared that it was directed at you.
Again, I'm sorry that the temporary situation made it sound like that was directed at you. It definitely wasn't. At least it provides an example of the confusion that can sometimes result when people are blocked. Sometimes you can tell from the indentation that there is a post missing,but sometimes not.

I am SO not in the mood for this right now. I did, however, put my exasperation aside and give an unemotional reply. Coming back to this after being on VERY little all week ****il the wee hours of this morning, anyway) is very disheartening.
Maybe instead of encouraging the "vets are mean" people to block the vets they think are mean or insensitive or "bullies", I will just block THEM.

It's funny, but I didn't take this as a "vets are mean" post either - I had a certain person in my head, who drives me nuts, and assumed it was about her ...
I suspect, we all think it is about that certain someone who drives *us* mad ...
THIS is the problem with vague "some people" posts LOL!

But the criticism WAS about people who allegedly don't remember what it was like when they were at someone else's point in the journey... Just didn't use the word "vets". And then the other person chimed in with he nonsense about middle aged bullies...
