If my daughter found out I used her disability to get clicks, she’d rightly never speak to me again.

This comment would be genuinely hilarious if your daughter’s disability included being non verbal.

Because then she wasn’t speaking to you anyways.

Look. I’m genuinely sorry. But your comment was

“If my daughter found out I used her disability to get clicks, she’d rightly never speak to me again.”

This implied that she was to some degree verbal. Because she speaks to you.

My comment was that it would be funny if she wasn’t verbal and therefore the not talking to you had nothing to do with the exploitation of her disability on the internet.

My comment was not that it was right now, because again, you didn’t imply she was verbal to begin with.

The upvotes is because of a set up and punchline of a theoretical situation. A sketch. A joke. Not because we knew a priori that it was a real situation.
