Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point uses the comma the way you think it should be used
thank God you didn't confuse us by thinking you were referring to yourself twice at the same time separately instead of twice, twice.
I do find issue with your capitalization, with Trump I find fault with his capitalization. Slight difference
Hitler introduced better protection for animals. I'm not going to say I like him, but I'm with him on this one.
He also gave up his inheritance to his single mother sister. Overall his bad dominated his good and he deserved a humiliating death like Mussolini or Gaddafi, but there was some good there.
Though it's interesting that Trump's "good" is a grammar preference. Trump isn't more bad than Hitler but he might be less good.
Just because the man is capable of one good decision in his life, doesn't mean he should run the country. Just sayin'.
I think the implication is that people who are anti-woke are stupid so those are the ones you have to convince to use the Oxford comma since intelligent people already see the benefit.
Intelligent people avoid being redundant, though. The and/or is a substitute for the Oxford comma.
Mate no one's gonna believe you didn't mean what you said. Next time just own up to it and move on.
Of course I meant it. The OC is redundant. People who use the JFK/Stalin anecdote are demonstrating a reliance upon memorization rather than logic as a basis of syntax.
I think the implication might have been that stupid people will incorrectly use it overemphatically, not that he is against the comma itself, but i could be wrong
Draft: new tweet: "Coffee county..."
(Staffer sees what he's writing and a struggle for the phone ensues)
There had to be something we’d have in common. Now that I know he’s an Oxford comma man, he’s got my vote!
I'm sure Hitler enjoyed breathing air too but that doesn't mean it's wrong or that I'm going to stop
Mostly in script. Specifically with adjectives.
"I found myself surrounded by giant trees, massive ferns and strange mushrooms."
If this line were to be spoken aloud, the last two subjects would not have a pause between them. It's a picky me thing, to be honest. I'm extremely obsessive about grammar.
When it changes the meaning.
I went to dinner with two idiots, Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

I went to dinner with two idiots, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden.
If you intend for the reader to think you went to dinner with two people, treating the Oxford comma as mandatory is going to add ambiguity at best and change the meaning at worst.
