I’m probably just an asshole nobody wants to talk to, but I can hardly even get a reply text from anyone anymore. A couple people have told me that they are just feeling burnt out/depressed/etc and don’t have even enough energy to answer a message anymore. But I’ve also had some long time friends just entirely ghost me in the last year as well with no explanation. It feels like I’m surrounded by NPCs. I’ve basically just stopped reaching out to anyone at this point. Outside of my work, literally the only people I talk to are my parents, sister, and my girlfriend. Everyone else seems dead inside. I used to have at least 10 people who I could call on a moments notice and all of those people are gone.
yes.
for me it’s mostly that many people became political extremists and they basically tolerate zero disagreement. These people basically totally dismiss your humanity and the humanity of anyone who they don’t 100% agree with. They also massively overgeneralize other people/groups and take super offense at people doing the same to them.
I have no issue with my more moderate friends who are able to tolerate people of different viewpoints without entirely dismissing their humanity. They generally also are more open people, they are less offended, less selfish, and less self absorbed and actually listen to me.
Ya my closest cousin (43 year old man child) blocked me recently because I was sending him Charlie kirk memes lol. Dude sends me anti LGBT stuff but I crossed the line apparently hahaha
all i can say is i have bene ‘progressive’ my entire life. but the past few years i am no longer ‘progressive’ because i’m not calling for the murder of people i disagree with, apparently not thinking kirk deserved to die makes me a trump voter or something…
i don’t get that kind of crazy extremism. kirk can be a shithead and also not deserve to be killed.
I would have shot him myself if I had nothing to lose lol. Waste of skin, deserved execution
I’m in Canada which makes his outrage even weirder to me
do you think it’s justified for someone to shoot you if you disagree with them then?
I think if I pass a certain threshold of evil I should be killed yeah. That dude caused needless suffering for millions and easily meets the execution criteria
people who think violence isnt the answer to many many of our problems have lived privileged lives
who defines that evil? because i’m sure your life as it currently is is evil to many folks. no doubt aspects of your life are causing suffering for others.
it’s not about you seeing yourself as evil man. nobody sees themselves as evil.
Only good fascist is a dead fascist
you sound like a fascist. should you be dead then?
Charlie knew he was evil lol I don’t even think he honestly believed the shit he was spouting
Calling what kirk did ‘disagreeing’ is a surefire sign that you are not worth talking to. Get fucked.
