(A funny meme for you, if you’re wondering about the picture)
So to preface, like everyone else, I came from reddit, a website that I left due to some subs that I don’t want to name as they are personal to me.
The reason I left is because it got flooded with stupid people, and I realised that the only reason I kept using Reddit was to argue with those fools.
But the thing is, that simply cutting out reddit didn’t solve my problem, which is that I really hate a lot of people and I’m not even going to deny it.
A lot of them deserve it tho, I’m mostly talking about those jerks who try to stample on others to feel better about themselves. I hate how this word got “ruined” but to be precise I’m talking about “bigoted” people.
Anyways l just because they “deserve” the hate (or don’t) I still feel angry after meeting people like this and I honestly don’t know what to do now.
EDIT: made formatting better
Being truly intellectually challenged is not something one decides on, so I have patience and overall try to believe in the natural goodness of people, which can be obfuscated by heavy propaganda (if you're in the Fire nations/Ba Sing Ses of the world, that's a guarantee), a postmodern lack of ideology and moral relativism, the wrong lessons learned from childhood trauma, etc. Many people online with morally disgusting takes are just paid for them too, don't forget (saying something wild but without a moral component doesn't affect people as much). Basically: give people the benefit of the doubt until you're certain that they're not complete, unrepentant c*nts, then accommodate them as much as you can and correct them if possible.
Also, if there's one thing I've learned from my somewhat lengthy relationship: we're all "difficult" one way or another, someone is already 'accommodating' you if you have any friends/family/loved ones.
Can’t stress this one enough. We’re all that person to others from time to time. Being more positive than negative helps to combat that.
