    It’s a hypothetical mate, using a simile and then explaining the logic behind it. It’s intentionally done to highlight how nonsensical of a position it is. You’re focusing on the wrong thing and missing the point.

    Using hot sauce analogy/simile/metaphor/whatever was for rhetorical purpose. I could have made any number of comparisons, that’s just the one I choose.

    Idk how I sound mad. That’s just your interpretation. Inducing tone from text isn’t the most precise thing. Only “angry” part I assume is the end but that was just poking fun at the expense of people like Alex Jones and his whole “turn the frogs gay” meme.

      I mean, you’re starting with the idea that there are many people too stupid to know how spicy foods affect them. If that wasn’t the premise or didn’t sound judgy I wouldn’t have said anything
