Peoples burning desire to talk to someone who doesn't want to talk to them mystifies me. I don't know if it's some kind of desire to "Win the Internet" or what. So you might not get to make that decisive point you gnawed into existence through a sleepless night, get over it. If it's really such a great point, make your own post and have a nice chat with people that do want to talk to you. If you feel that you have a lot to bring to the table in regards to a certain persons posts and you really regret the fact that out of all the internet this one teeny tiny portion is off limits to you, try and start a dialog with this person via other users (notice I didn't say apologize, but at least try having a chat). Maybe if things can't be reconciled it will be OK, you will be able to go on with your life, the whole wide world is out there for you to comment on.
They don't want to "talk to someone" they want to shout over them. It's not about connecting to that person, it's about obscuring that person's connection to everyone else. Nothing mysterious about it - this is an "OP" culture where the person generating or linking the content just becomes Victim 1 in the self-reinforcement mill.
Except that's not the case. It's more along the lines of "people's desire to have a conversation with anyone based around what someone who didn't want to talk to them said". Peoples burning desire to talk to someone who doesn't want to talk to them mystifies me.
OMG, well thatchangeseverything!!! No it doesn't, get over it. It's a post on the internet, you can make you own post. The meta drama is more destructive to the community than just taking your lumps and moving on. I'd welcome the MILH faction to group mute me so I can show them how to become happier more well adjusted people.
