If I say dogs are members of the Canidae family, it’s very obvious I’m tryibg to refer to all dogs, like how when you say People online are so unhappy, you’re referring to all people online. I’m not taking it personally, I’m reading what you wrote. If anything, YOU’RE the person taking it personally by using all caps and writing in paragraphs.
