If your description of my experience is different from my description of it, which description are we to believe?

You are welcome to believe your description of my experiences, but it is perhaps best not to tell me my understanding of my experiences is wrong. I mean, you can tell me that, but when has that ever been helpful? Of course, "helpful" might not be the intent ... 😆

I understand and generally agree with your point here. But it's worth noting that this is the same mentality behind "Its not racist when I do it," or "It's just a joke, bruh".

A lot of what passes did rhetoric these days is just moral posturing in disguise.

It's also used in the Anecdotal Evidence Fallacy. "I don't care what that peer reviewed study says. This is what happened to ME."
 

"I just can't get over how many people complain to me about the 'accidental' pineapple they get served on pizza."

"That's strange, I'm not sure I've ever heard of more than one or two people getting 'accidental' pineapple. But you should hear about all the folks who actually order cheese pizza and later complain that there is no pepperoni on it!"

"That's totally different, and good, because pepperoni is gross. Can we focus on the pineapple problem?"

"Don't you prefer calzones anyway?"

"Stromboli!!!"

"How can you be insulted when I've told you repeatedly this insulting phrase isn't an insult?"

Which is to say, I likewise take your point.
