      ah. ive been woke-ish long enough that im jaded and spiteful and filled with more disdain than optimism, so I dont try to educate people so much anymore.

      i guess I don't respect people enough to tell them how they're wrong anymore.

          nothing to be sorry for. this was me apologizing for my crass phrasing.

          we await you on the island of "I don't respect humanity enough to correct it anymore".

            No need to apologize sounds like you've been through more shit then I can imagine, being angry makes sense. If or better yet when I get to that island hope we can curse at the world together. Solidarity comrade :heart-sickle: and :trans-heart:

              doesn't make "yeah I already knew that stfu noob" any less crass or more excusable.

                Still, don't care I'm a big boy I can take it. We all need some love and understanding. Peace out comrade. If you ever need to vent I'll be here making bad puns and the like.

                  perhaps, but there are standards of decency I should hold myself to, because if I don't who that, I occasionally pretend to respect for the sake of not having to do gross stuff, will?

                    Guess I'm trying to stick to what I originally said about not lashing out and using empathy. It would have been easier to yell but feel like this route created an empathetic connection that wouldn't exist otherwise. Still I respect what you said about standards just wanted to let you know no barriers were formed on my end, that I didn't take it personal. Gonna take a nap now, hope you have a good day.
