here's the thing: everyone complains about late capitalism and how alienated and isolated we all are. everyone acknowledges this, and reassures each other of this, alone.
you need to get out of yourself, and your head, and your small bubble of one, and you need to go see old friends, or former friends, or people in your social circle who are just meh, or your annoying roommates, or your co-workers, or your former co-workers, or your lame family members, or your lame and bigoted family members, or strangers at a bar, or whomever, and party. meeting people is praxis, strengthening relationships is praxis, making yourself seen and vulnerable to another is praxis. please, guys, go out.
this, here, now, is a facsimile, mediated through a thousand screens. go kiss, go get kissed, go reject a kiss, go be denied a kiss. go out.
Now you're accusing me of mental illness (because mentally ill people are bad, amirite fellow leftists? :sus-soviet: ) because it's weird to see 3 points on your post literally seconds after you posted it, this far into a comment thread, at this time of night, after New Years where I myself only just came back from celebrating a few minutes ago.
:doubt:
Are you done concern trolling yet?
responses like this make me feel like you’re doing a bit but it’s driving me crazy because you’re actually making other genuine, well thought out points in other comments
and just in case this is fr, no i’m not accusing you of mental illness and no mentally ill people aren’t bad tf? saying a concept (instant upvoting) is crazy doesn’t mean i’m calling you that or saying “crazy” people are bad
I do not think when people use the word crazy they are actually implying mental illness.
In the context that it was used there, when I pointed out the dubious timing and intentions of that poster, it kind of did seem that way.

it HAS to be a bit it HAS to be right?

It's not used in a non-hostile way, that's for sure. I've seen posts on Hexbear given warnings for ableism for softer stuff than that.
You're also providing an awfully generous reading considering that poster was complaining about hostility to totally wholesome not condescending or abrasive at all to anyone that has any right to feel otherwise kinds of unsolicited advice and how "disgusting" that was.
This isn't what I expected to come back to, but you do you.
i wasn’t using it in a hostile way or actually calling you crazy (i was saying instant upvoting was crazy), i’m sorry if you took it that way
You're playing the victim after insulting people that didn't take the dubious "advice" well and how "crazy" it is for me to see signs of suspicious and bad faith posting from you.
I'm done with you.
i’m playing the victim for apologizing since you took something i said the wrong way? i’m not a fucking victim i was just trying to be nice to you since you seemed hurt by it and make it clear i wasn’t calling you crazy LMAO
my cover as an undercover chud fbi agent wrecker set on concern trolling people who are mad at someone saying to go outside is blown now though, all thanks to your remarkable detective work. everyone here at the agency is hoping to get you on the db cooper case
It's kind of telling how you're acting right now while saying it's "disgusting" for anyone to see hostility in the wholesome totally-not-hostile "touch grass" unsolicited advice in the OP.
I already said I was done with you.
i’m just matching your hostility since 1. it’s funny 2. i was engaging you in a nice manner and conceding when i thought you made a good point
also you know you can just stop responding right? 😭 if i keep responding you can just ignore it
Disengage.
upvoting because this actually made me laugh irl 😭
enjoy the new year (genuinely this isn’t sarcasm)
