I've always had an undercurrent of "we just need to try to understand each other" with people I disagree with. Forever. But I'm starting to feel myself losing it with the woke infection. I'm watching myself shut down and curl up and go "actually no just go away." 1/

I know this isn't fair. I know that I've always wanted people to try to interact charitably with me. And to be fair I do think I would be happy to have conversations with seemingly Infected people if they were charitable! But I'm absolutely biased now upon just subtle signaling.

Like, I've noticed I've mostly stopped following people with BLM in their bios - not because I disagree with BLM, but because it's been associated with this terrifying and brutal infection that's claiming the minds of so many of my friends. I hate it.

I'm also afraid that me saying this will be used to justify meanness to the infected. I don't want that - I know this is a hard, nuanced line to walk. I don't think we should go easily into a war mindset at *all*. It shouldn't be easy to think war is justified. It should be hard.

And I absolutely don't want my expression of this fear and aversion to be taken as welcoming to the other side of the shithole. I disagree probably even more with the core ideology of the alt-right. If you're far-right, I'm not your friend either.

One problem is i noticed a large number of them are quite cynical/snarky people which is perfectly in line with postmodern entertainment we were all raised in (south park, ect)

Definitely. They say the worste things and then follow that up with sparkling and happy emoticons. The juxtaposition gets to me evey time.

It's very hard to talk with people that don't remind themselves that they might be wrong about some things.

I grew up in the nerd wars of Super Nintendo vs. Genesis, Star Wars vs. Star Trek, and Marvel vs. DC. I hoped adulthood would be more refined. Wrong. I think it is built in to humans to just pick teams and yell. At this point I just want to be left alone to enjoy my black pill.

Acceptance is key. They did this. They brought the war. For the collectivist woke horde, it's acquiescence, or it's war. If you don't acquiesce to their value system, they are willing to bare the State upon you, if they can only lay their hands upon the machinery of its levers.
