It's the most brief way to do this, any other way results in conversations like this and back and forth or wall of text explanations that no one reads and I have to type out. I totally understand it upsets people but I'd rather deal with downvotes than have to explain myself every time this comes up. Especially given this place is (for now) one of the brighter social groups of the web I got the feeling that more people understood my message rather than the characters on the screen. I have no interest in building a reputation here.
It took me all but 4 seconds to post the original post.
"Mark" doesn't quite get the message across as well as [[[Mark]]].
Both look like labeling Jews. I’d not do either and find a different way to express yourself

Doesn’t upset people, makes you look silly. Because it looks like your labeling Jews
That sounds like a you problem, then.
It’s not
It really is, though.
