Search Results: hate someone

I got emotional when I watched a TV show called "Time of death", it follows the last days or months of someone who's terminal. I got emotional as the mom gave her speech in which she expressed how horrible it was to see her son rapidly deteriorate from cancer, and fade away.

It also made me think about my childhood dog, Katie. She ended up getting sicker and sicker as her pancreas started shutting down and she could hardly walk down the stairs. She was my dog from 2007-2020. As previously mentioned, I never fit in, anywhere, Katie was my everything.

I was closer to her than most people are with their siblings, I hated being away from her, and she always howled, cried out and desperately lunged at me every time I left for school. She'd wait by the window for me, jump up, wagging her tail, and as I come in, there was a love seat by the door She'd run up, stand on, and lick me. She'd put her two paws on my shoulders to do it.

When I had surgery and was in the hospital, she refused to leave my room, even to use the bathroom and when I came back, she always cuddled so close to me and I'd always hold her close. Seeing her condition worsen and her strength fade was so hard. I'd have to carry her up and down the stairs, she'd be scared to try to walk down them.

Then I'd have to bring food up to her, her worry and sorrow always on her face as I desperately tried to comfort her. Then the day came, I remember how even in her last moments, she looked up and licked me as i told her how much I loved her, and how I'd never forget her.

I see now that although I have dogs now and love them, Katie's death burned the deepest hole in my heart.

I'm not ashamed to admit that my eyes are quite wet as I write this, and I sobbed as I looked at this photo taken days before her death. Seeing her nose, her eyes, I really loved her. To Katie, I will always remember you, thank you for loving me, thank you for staying with me, and thank you for being my dog❤️

I'm saying this as someone who's left-leaning himself. And I'm talking about internal disagreement here. I'm not talking about disagreements with conservatives or the MAGA crowd. I'm personally strongly anti-Trump and anti-MAGA but that would be a completely different discussion.

What I'm talking about is that the left has become extremely intolerant towards other people on the left. These days you really can't have any sort of slight disagreement with other people on the left on many issues, without them freaking out, becoming enraged and throwing insults at you.

For example even if you're anti-Trump and you're anti-MAGA, but you dare to have a slightly nuanced opinion on mass migration you're immediately the enemy. And if you dare to criticize Islam that's a huge no-no of course. Islam MUST NOT be criticized within left-wing/left-leaning spaces. If you criticize Islam you're immediately branded as a racist who hates brown people. Same if you have a slightly differing view on DEI and affirmative action. If you criticize those concepts even in the slightest be prepared to be labeled a racist nazi white supremacist. And you MUST NOT criticize gender ideology under any circumstances. And there's all sorts of other stuff that just cannot be criticized under any circumstances according to those on the modern left.

And I'm saying that as someone who's left-leaning, and who's extremely opposed to Trump and MAGA. I could write a very long essay about everything that I despise in Trump and the modern conservative movement. But that's not the point of my post here. My point is that the modern left is hurting themselves by having become so extremely intolerant of internal dissent. If the modern left wants to regain broad popular support again, first of all they need to work on how they approach honest discussion and internal disagreements.

It's absolutely sad and ridiculous how extremely hostile and intolerant the modern left has become toward internal disagreement.
