If you're against running closed captions on your TV for example. That was the most recent I got bombed for

Now I'm curious, can I see this example? I'm having a hard time believing people were "bombing" you for not liking closed captions if you're talking about watching things on your own.

Edit: nevermind I found it.

You basically said you won't turn captions on when you have guests over that need them because it ruins your enjoyment.

That's not a hive mind, bud. That's just normal people reacting normally. Denying an accessibility feature to people who need it because it annoys you is just being a jerk.

That is not at all what I said. I only spoke about my one relative who is pro-caption (the entire time). When they come over (not disabled in any way whatsoever), they feel the need to turn on the CC themselves or ask for it so we can somehow be enlightened after the 20th time of them attempting to convert us.

If I had/have anyone remotely disabled come over, I make every effort to ensure they have a comfortable stay.

Perhaps I could have worded it differently. I edited it for clarity, not that it really matters.
