Am I arrogant piece of shit for thinking I can read minds. Ehh maybe. I’m wrong all the time about predictions like that, but over time you can find the normal distribution Sometimes the other person feels pathetic, other times I feel pathetic for being afraid of their reaction

There are times I think when I lie about liking shit just to try and keep good vibes. I don’t wanna pathologize everything I do, I think this is expected to some degree but I’m wondering exactly what motivates me to do so

My own approach is to choose my battles and my friends. It's possible this is too clever in some nebulously dysfunctional way.

My current edge here is being authentic and emotionally present though not necessarily exposing your views.

If I got into some conversation at all where I don't have a lot of trust in my conversational partner but wanted to give discussion a chance I might say something like, "I disagree and am uncomfortable continuing without addressing..."

Whoa this is actually some ninja shit. It has the potential to get past view embeddedness. It also sends a signal for negotiating an elevate relational style for what comes next.
