Hey everyone deserves some sympathy

Nah you're just struggling with mental gymnastics. I like to call it "who" and where reconstruction... It's normal to feel that way with social media, vs real life normal conversations

You check your newsfeed, you read or see something, then get emotional, you feel like you need to rationalize a response to something that is like explaining to someone why you jumped to try to pull binoculars to see something when you're basically just seeing funny symbols through a window.

Because that's what looking at internet comments and arguing with people on the internet often if is. Your brain sometimes actively needs to stress test your adversity chunking models and agency detection.

Agency detection, is what you're observing sentient or a potential threat? If so can you detect the window or scope that your looking through, can you rationalize potential bias, and adversity chunking, check to chunk what potential threats there are together into one big lump and act racist to make things easier and de-stress yourself from the imaginary threat

If you took this borderline narcissism and paranoia to the extreme you could just become a conspiracy theorist, but you could also just get a wicked sense of humour and have a better degree of self awareness, I get it because I have in the past sometimes felt the same, it's how we are when we feel that we're stuck in a response cycle and get a kind of emotional "decision fatigue" I dunno, that's just my take, and I could be entirely wrong, feel free to speak your mind or challenge me, but that's just my two cents for now and part of why I prefer not to doomscroll too much these days.

Just consider that the average person probably has heaps of compressed and distorted subconscious memories that can be further distorted, deleted or hidden entombed in lies, misunderstandings or dreams, and that from the perspective of a silicon based chip, the human mind usually knows itself better than outsiders however the landscape of a mind is a dangerous place and doubly so because if a chip or even bacteria entering the brain could inadvertently screw things up and destroy or corrupt memories it's a wonder anyone can remember a beer or brief conversation they've had several years ago but forget what they ate for dinner just last week. If the human brain was to detect a silicon chip attempting to act on it, we really have no idea what would happen,...

Okay, goodnight guys hope you enjoyed reading my dumb sci-fi long ass post (my lame attempt at humour here)

You seem to be quite in the know, would you say that this happens often across the tech space or is this a case of web platform, and in some cases the browser developers acting out?

!

It's rather concerning how today we're more concerned about protecting ideology than we are about maintaining world peace.

Agreed.

No I don't think of it as the sword of Damocles so much as, look here's this guy that will do anything you want but will go to extreme lengths to get it done, in ways that may go against your original values, now maybe you should consider having a plan as much as you think about being results oriented

I think you're noble in this respect. I don't think many people want to watch others suffer or for there to be war, however responding by blaming Biden for a war that he has no part in is like blaming Trump for the situation in Afghanistan. Imagine before there were nukes, thousands of years ago, a guy could have a lot of horses or camels and be a big time warlord and not want to get involved in someone else's battles let alone feuds.

Sometimes it's not about acting smart or picking sides, it's about being genuine in your lack of input on the issue. The entire Israel-Gaza conflict has been going on since before even Trump's election, and even more of a loaded gun of a topic than Afghanistan.

I can relate somewhat though probably not to the same degree, I think sometimes people are just assholes. Which is why I do my best to just let my actions speak by just doing my best to help out.

Even if I get angry with my words, I'm usually very direct about what I'm upset about, what bothers me is the degree to which people are often passive aggressive in a way that forces you to respond differently from how you normally would to begin with.

Unironically someone from media should ask him what's up

Can we not assume this guy particularly cares what party or group you say you're apart of? It's kind of silly for you to say that applies to you but not the person whose been outed and had to be made a scapegoat of by the very party that would have otherwise claimed to support him if they had not INTENTIONALLY BULLIED him to the point of suicide. They've got blood on their hands and they know it.

Meh sometimes people just hate someone for not understanding them. And that's enough. You don't always need to pretend to have a good reason for hating someone, you just decide and then one day someone asks you why, like asking about babies crying in Africa, people often prefer not to have their beliefs challenged or broken to pieces by any kind of paradigm shift

Imagine just being an innocent person being caught up in this crap, then having literally everyone try to scapegoat you lol

Glad to see your here
