I’ve actually seen people do things like double-down on using commas in ellipses when being told that’s incorrect just out of spite. It’s really amazing what people will do rather than just correct their behavior.
I’m guilty of that, I overuse commas like crazy. I’m trying to just stop using ellipsis entirely and move the content I want to say into a different sentence. It’s a hard habit to break.
This wouldn’t be someone doing it out of habit, this would be someone clearly doing it out of spite. Like doing it multiple times in the post in response to someone telling them that they’re doing it incorrectly.
When you pause in a thought, they have time to consider how insane it sounds. So all sovcits have to remain in the fugue state of crank rambling to make sure their worldview doesn’t have any air gaps to give anyone listening a second to question what’s being said.
Text-To-Speech programs actually insert punctuation, sometimes when you don’t want them to. I actually had to turn the future off because it was so annoying.
Case in point it decided to put the hyphens up there on its own, (correctly in this case) so even with punctuation switched off it still does it.
I’m still learning about sovcits but what do they have against punctuation?
These people are severely undereducated. There’s a shockingly high number of Americans who are functionally illiterate.
It’s the willfully illiterate that worry me

Commas in ellipses? So like, three commas in a row instead of dots?
Exactly that. It would go something like this:
“ur all letting the mexicans take our jobs,,, all u libruls are dumb,,, u hate Trump,,,”
“I don’t agree with what you’re saying. Also, you’re using commas where you should be using periods.”
“dum librul,,,trump 2024,,, MAGA,,, get a brain moran,,,”
(And this is how I find out that Lemmy automatically converts three commas into one comma unless you tell it not to.)

It’s a tool of the government meant to imprison your mind? Not really sure.
