What Made You Angry Today?

I sincerely apologize that I keep posting about this, but that traitor friend I keep telling you a...

He is clearly very confused, he doesn't realise it's not 1945 any more?

@Not Important

With all due respect...constantly blaming someone else for your choice of post and now offering one with a racist picture is on you. Own your choice and stop hiding behind it's his/her fault that (fill in the blank)__________.

I accept full responsibility of my actions in communicating this to you...




...and yes, I am extremely angry in this moment but that's on me too!

Do you understand the context behind me posting the picture though? It was to illustrate how evil of a person he is. I wasn't saying I support the content of it, if anything I was trying to prove I am against it. It's not just my choice, but obligation.

Do. you. understand. - that you are still defending your choice to post the picture? ;)

We can agree to disagree...

 

[Not Important]

Yes, because I want you all just to realize how much of a piece of shit he is and how offensive his views are. If people are offended by the picture in question, then it's a good sign because they're just as disgusted with the ex-friend as I am. Most people would defend him, not scorn him for his heartless viewpoints like I am.

@Not Important , yes but it was/is your choice to post and be their friend! I would of kicked them to the curb and that would of been the end of it!!

Angry that this is what our life has become....a mixture of emotions from depression to rage to sadness. I want to ride a different roller coaster.

I am angry that paypal has technical difficulties, but at least they are working on it!:mad::laugh:

@Recovery4Me it just seems to me like he was trying to explain why he's not interested in friendship...He has the right to be angry. It looks like his post is misunderstood.

As far as how I personally feel about hatred, hateful speech etc...I don't care...best ignored

 

[Recovery4Me]

@Ed Norton (((hugs))) to you and your compassion.

However, my thoughts with an example for consideration (or not)- it is still against the law to show child pornography in order to claim one is only denouncing it. So finding another manner versus blaming the choice of picture re-showing on the originator/ perpetrator in order to communicate one's detesting such actions is an advisable or an politically correct option.

Such might be explored with the non-reshowing of racist pictures. jmho

I see what you mean. I don't tend to be offended by much. Nothing surprises me. For a long time, I was on many racist websites, I did it to get a feel as to how they think or why they think that way. I never joined because I didn't wanna troll, just quietly observe.

After seeing so many hateful sites or people I have come to see how anti intellectual and limited these people are. Same conversation ad infinitum a mindless echo chamber, they are quite empty and limited in human experiences. No profound points ever made. After a while, most banned my IP maybe because I'm in NY or because I never joined.

I don't know the origin of hate but I clearly see how it can detract from life. Of course, when they go undercover and become people in positions of authority that's much more frightening to me. I'd rather them out in the open than behind a badge or sitting on a bench tbh.

Other than that scenario, I just let them talk...they're crazy.

Thanks for the hug @Recovery4Me
