All in my life, a recurring theme has always happened. That I am the one always punished at my expense over the offenses by others caused onto me.

It is always online and offline and it’s such bullshit. I’ve gotten banned multiple times, but it was because of someone else and I simply retaliated. I’ve gotten penalized at work or other things IRL over matters in which the scales weighed towards the other who committed the offense or was the one instigating but the conclusion always fell onto me.

I’ve gotten singled out, I’ve gotten cameras put on me, I’ve gotten prioritized, I’ve gotten shifted here and there. I was not born a violent, antagonizing and instigating person.

But overtime? As these kinds of things piled on and on and on, it has coursed me to be that way, even when I didn’t want to. Because what good is being a pacifist, passive and peacemaker when you’re going to be faulted anyways and even if you have gone lengths to prove your innocence or go through the appropriate channels of authority to do the right thing and you’re going to be punished anyways. What’s the point?

    pacifism and authority are shitty social constructs and you should dismiss them from your worldview, they’re doing you a shit load of unnecessary mental harm here

    “If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you’re the asshole.”

    Based on this and your last couple posts, man, you need some therapy.

      Was waiting for someone to bring up that philosophical flaw. and you were it.

      So you only read the past couple posts, right? Maybe if you’re going to be prying into my post history, why don’t you dig a little further? Oh, you won’t because you’re afraid of being wrong and that whole redundant quote you’ve spitted out that’s about as generic as many over-shared Facebook quote posts, is proven wrong too.

      But whatever, whatever makes you sleep comfortably at night knowing you’ve once again just tossed out a logically flawed quote at someone online and that somehow just proves everything you say as righteous. Whatever, dude.

        He could have phrased it better, and like maybe you could just be having a bad few days, but he’s probably not entirely wrong man.

        Ask yourself, would you want to hang out with you? Would you like you? Whether you answer yes or no to that, follow up by asking yourself why and think about how you feel about the answer.

        This is why you’re being seen as an asshole. Why should we engage? You can’t even handle the hard criticism.
