In order to protect their world order ( attachment to the comfy mainstream narrative ) sheep have developed an army of tools ranging from passive aggressive body language to an endless list of labels.
Agree meaningful and friendly discussion no longer doable. Although sad I have accepted this and have chosen peace . It’s a really lucky day if I bump into another shrew.
My hope is that they evolve , I would even settle for a little independent thought …..sadly there is very little if any .
Sounds kind of like battered wife syndrome. Sorry, Todd, but the voice is passive and intones they are in the right and your beliefs, expression needs modulation, lest you anger the wife-beater.
Buck up, Todd! Can't live like that. I know among family and friends harmony is sought. But as long as they are allowed to carry themselves with self-righteous moral indignation while you hope/beg for accommodation of small infractions against their values you will forever live a lie with them.
Take me or leave me. I'm not everybody's cup of tea. There will be a comeuppance for them someday. When the worldview they think they know comes crashing around them. As is wont to happen to those hoisted with their own petard.
Wanna be a family and friend favorite? Bust their bubble? Suggest you all watch Andrew Dice Clay's 'No Apologies' together. Get one of them to giggle and the spell they're under is broken! The Dice Man cometh!
This happened to me too within my own family. I think this is very common behavior for Gen Z particularly. I believe it is a result of financed social engineering and has no basis in reality. They are being played. I hope there will be an awakening for them before they completely isolate themselves.
Oh yea ! So well put !
