Today, a woman decided to tell me I'm ugly because I said democracy is better now women take part in it.
-
It doesn't bother me but I do wonder why. It's seldom coz of anything provocative I've said. A pre-existing anger thrown out randomly.
-
Must be horrible to feel like that. I have sympathy but limited. Option to be kind & reasonable online & make meaningful connections exists.
-
As I said it takes a lot of patience and time. Moreover. Twitter. No PoC no nuance. black & white thinking.
-
I have a piece coming out about that. Maybe today!
-
I've written about it as well before. You are a much better writer than I am.

Insecurity, fear. I pity people who don't have someone nice in their life telling them they are worth something. this is what they become.

Though I'm not sure I would be able to say the same if it was directed at me ;) Looking back on people who bullied me past it's true tho.

Having recently studied social psychology with the OU, I think I can answer that question.
-
The forces that motivate people to specific behaviours are many and complex, but this sort of thing really boils down to one basic fact
-
The most important fact I learned in all my psychology studies, in fact. I can be summed up as follows: people are weird.
