Has anyone else felt like interactions have been a bit more confrontational than normal, lately?
Yep. Maybe it's the election? Things do feel tense.
I'm used to getting some bullshit troll stuff lobbed at me, but two respectable people picked fights with me simply for trying to calm and help them, and then they continued to throw punches even when I did my usual "roll over and show my belly special" which tends to bring ordinary people back from their keyboard rage.

Most of mine have been in conversations about foreign countries, so it's a little odd to get such testy responses. I also tried to deescalate and indicate that I wasn't interested in fighting, but wasn't taken up on it.

That's true. A couple of the conversations could certainly fall into that category, but a couple others just seemed like someone was really intent on grinding their particular axe.

I assumed this was your reply to a different comment. It works well in both places.
