And does this unfairly paint them as less agreeable than they would be if you presented what they said with a normal voice?

    TIL doing a pattern of capital and lowercase letters means you’re doing a dumb voice. Didn’t know that until looking at the replies, now I feel like I have a lot of stuff to change on my countless profiles.

    To answer the question, I don’t think so. I don’t use the dumb voice just for people who disagree with me, it would have to actually be dumb, like the teacher who thought special ed gym class was better for me because that’s where people go who aren’t social enough with their classmates (and then you get to the class and wonder what the logic is because you solved a people problem by subtracting the people).
