Mary's post was pretty clear to me. Have noticed you tend to struggle with interpreting philosophical posts. Sometimes you miss the bigger point because you tend to focus on details rather than the overall message. Sometimes you also miss the nuance.

You tend to obsess with how something is said and compare it to how you think it should be said, rather than listening to what is said and getting the gist of it, and moving to a higher ground of discussion.

Communication should be like a relay team. You receive a baton from someone and move on to the next level. You don't return the baton because you're stuck in an endless loop where you nit over how a baton was handed to you. Instead, you would want to continue to a higher ground of communication, get the gist of the point, then get to the next point. Like Republicans say, move on.

Try to make a new point for a change under your own initiative under a new post, rather than always replying with criticism to someone else's posts. Your replies tend to make you appear as if the big picture soared right over your head.
