Sadly, your story isn't the first, nor is it going to be the last. SRS is a shitstain on reddit, one of the brownest there is, and it's beyond baffling how there has been no attempts at permabanning both the sub and its key members.
How to spot an SRS "argument":
Honestly, there's a part of me that wishes it's intentional trolling. The alternative--namely that people genuinely and sincerely do, think and say the shit that goes on in the SRS sub and by SRS members--is kind of depressing on behalf of everyone who isn't an absolute idiot.

Someone has written up the story for you[1]. It appears to be both: trolls that are deliberately whipping gullible idiots into a frenzy for laughs.

You forgot that when it's shown that they're in the wrong, they don't apologize, it's suddenly just satire and that makes everything okay.
Sure.

Takes something (or everything, if at all possible) out of context.
Intentionally contrues everything you say with a negatively assumptive perspective.
Rampant strawman construction.
Fighting fire with fire - if their version of whatever you said, no matter how twisted out of its original image it may be, is somehow found something-phobic (facts don't apply to any part of this process), they're gonna commit against you whatever imaginary internet crime you have committed.
This sounds like my wife.

In its creation, it was mostly satirical. All of that was lost years ago. It's now an angry vote brigade with dreams of true vigilantism. The trolls within are just the ones who like to instigate chaos and love seeing it committed by the self-righteous.
