why was that childish? it was just meant to be a reminder that you can get rally strong without much barbell training.

Maybe the fault is on my side here. But I feel that you don't make an effort to be understood. You posting that video might implicate a variety of meanings. It can very well be interpreted as a criticism to me asking this question in the first place or making fun of the idea that barbells are a superior training tool for most purposes. Why not just make the point and say "you can get really strong without much barbell training" and then post the video?

Take everything people say with a grain of salt.

It's a fool who takes offense when none is intended. A greater fool when it is. (paraphrase.... just something I've heard before)

even if that's the case, which it very obviously wasn't, why do care so much?

I care about it because by not saying something explicitly it is not being made accessible to discussion. You might imply something that could be viewed critically, but by not explicitly saying so you dodge being made accountable for it.

I am NOT saying that this is what Damien did here. But I have a problem with this kind of response in general because of what I explained above. If you want to make a point, have the balls to say it directly or don't bring it up at all.
