It was meant to be more humorous than you interpreted it. Apologies.
Did it require the douche bag reply? Probably not.

I'd like to distance myself from Joe's "the American right" thing because I don't know where that came from

Anyway
It's just odd to me as someone who grew up watching just about everything subtitled that anyone would have a problem with using then to watch stuff in a foreign language
The "you miss facial expressions" or whatever thing seems especially foreign to me. That has never ever been a problem
I never use subs when it's a language I can understand though

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Jesus Christ. Some people use subtitles some don’t. Why would anyone get mad at either side unless you are watching together? Fucking weird.
