I agree completely. I meant to say “I don’t think...” as a general expectation that we shouldn’t have to check our selves just because someone close to a situation might read it is entirely false.
If anything, the internet would be a better place if people took that approach in all interactions. Act like you would if you knew anybody could be standing next to you, because that’s the Internet. If you’re comfortable making jokes about a deceased person with their family right beside you, go for it, but I wouldn’t be.
