A lot of the real AITA threads are like that too: a carefully crafted narrative using selected facts and a single POV to give the best possible impression leading to a string of 'NTA' responses supporting the OP. It was quite fun to play along and mimic those kind of responses, even though that's not necessarily what people really believe. Some of the in-character comments were outrageously funny!
