Conversation

I have this core belief that if you just are compassionate and genuine enough, you can have a vulnerable conversation with anybody. I think this is why conversations with SJWs are so upsetting to me; they really threaten that core belief and it makes me feel unstable. Send hugs?

God I just had a FB exchange and now my heart rate is up and I feel really sad. I like to think I could handle a potential dump of internet hate but honestly idk if one convo is all it took to make me so upset.

The reply they just sent in response to my attempt at vulnerable circlingly stuff was "have a cry, then listen and absorb". Gah why are people like this? They must be so brittle.

I was saying I was uncomfortable expressing myself in a group that recently got new more SJW leadership (I'd previously argued that intent should be a factor in whether something is racist and they muted me). They then said of course I should be uncomfortable cause I'm a racist.

It’s good that you exist and walk the same planet at an overlapping interval. And yet. Nothing is ever personal. Just monkeys making noise at each other... Stay awake and sleep well

That's a good idea. Mostly I end up doing circling stuff - "when you say that I feel sad. I would like to connect with you but I don't know how" - but they are not responsive to this even a little bit. Questions seem like a good next attempt, once I recover from this one.
