    am I unknowingly walking around like an asshat and I don't realize it?

No.

But you don't have the advantage that you do offline. You are one of the more intellectually generous and nonjudgmental people I've known. It's hard to make those qualities come through with text all the time but I'd be surprised if anyone with an open mind could very often think of you as an asshat. You are a kind person who is open to a wide range of experiences, I think those qualities are going to usually shine through.

Anyone who mutes you probably has some issues to deal with that aren't really about you.

On the other hand, I'm often a cantankerous dick and probably have earned a number of well justified mutes.
