“Just put this bread into the oven for the first time. What on earth does “satin-smooth” mean? I am not a painter or a communist, I cannot work in such flowery terms as this. The fascists at the NSA wouldn’t allow this - I hope when they read this comment they will immediately take down this wishy-washy recipe and replace it with a concrete scientific methodology that is more suited to the delicate and precise nature of baking.” [screenshot ends]
this reads like Disco Elysium dialogue

this is like something an NPC says to you at the bakery in the witch alps version of Disco Elysium

      I don’t think she knows what “generic” means, or maybe everyone I know in real life is very unique…

          You don’t have to be an asshole, you know.

          Why is it your default assumption that everyone who disagrees with you is a middle aged white man?
          And why do you act as if calling someone that is an insult?
