Anyone else tired of genuinely asking a legitimate question only to get attacked, smeared and labeled something your not?

Yes

No

A lot but I question if I'm too sensitive or old. I remember this one time when I went into how Japan has the strictest gun regulation and just noted no convenience stores require bulletproof glass just noting how safe this country is. I don't even have a real opinion about gun rights in the US, just saying I don't have bulletproof glass here at any convenience store while I went to the US and saw so much security including bulletproof shields separating me from the cashier.

Then some guy pushed me and said this and that about Japan and somehow it went towards racism? I said I would feel safer if I was in a neighborhood without guns and then he said something like, "Oh in a neighborhood with black people?" And I'm like, "WTF are you talking about?" Then he wrote a magazine article about me saying I'm racist.

Then I never did media interviews ever again. He twisted my words so much. I wanted to sue him for slander but didn't have the means. So I just ducked out of the spotlight. No more interviews, no more news coverage, I just do my work. But I never felt so attacked and smeared as in that interview. I was just trying to safe that Japan is relatively safe with low street crime. Then he took my observations of low street crime and made it all about black people. And I don't even live in the US to know what that means that much. I just said, "I don't know" a lot. But it's like maybe he is trying to make me like super right-wing racist Japanese person? I don't know. I am not racist at all but he twisted my words so much.

A while ago, I was labeled a racist for saying it was racist to hire someone based on skin color.

[ZXCwWRQWz]

I don't like this new way of things. I think it is making those of us least racist and just looking for the best workers, best friends, best lovers even, of any color, as "racist". While these people act like they are against that and call people like me "racist" are looking at colors so hard like "white person here", "black person there", "Asian over there", "Hispanic down there".

[ZXCwWRQWz]

That is so horrible to thing to say to me when I never said anything bad about any race and if people are willing to look at my life record, I have never judged any by skin color. My best friend in middle school was black and my first-ever girlfriend in university was black. And I didn't choose them because they were black. I chose them because they were nice to me as one from Japan and I liked them a lot. Then they say "You are still racist even if your friends or even if your first girlfriend you ever loved is black." So I am just racist then? How am I supposed to not be racist besides that?

[ZXCwWRQWz]

Then one of them said I have to look internally within myself. Fuck that guy! Does he think he knows my subconscious? If so he should be afraid for his life because there's no one I found more annoying and worthy of eliminating from the planet than him. Stupid fucking faggot (I am a little bit chauvinist and grew up in a time of "faggot-slinging"). But not racist! Dig deep into my mind and your own grave, assholes!

There are no legitimate questions, kiddo.

Just internet points, soliloquy and opinions.

[sage2021]

Yes, because it comes from left field by someone that doesn't even know anything about you.
I was ridiculed recently by a feminist who said that I would always be nothing in this world because I was a homemaker and not breaking any glass doors down. That I would always be poor, etc. She made fun of me making sandwiches for important people. I told her I like making sandwiches 🤭

You can solve about 90% of this by coming out of the shadows and not posting anonymously. And don't allow anons on your posts. And if some moron calls you a racist for pointing out racism, then you just have to put them down like a rabid dog. You can't convince or reason with a rabid dog.

Trust me, online forums like this are much more enjoyable if you block all the assholes.

[LazerBean]

Why don't you give us an example of what happened to you?

[Asker]

Asked a legitimate election question recently, and was smeared and labeled MAGA Trump worshiper, when I don't even like the guy.

[LazerBean]

Lol the far left doesn't like genuine questions. Sorry to hear that, but that's just how it goes.

[Asker]

It's fun being an independent, you get attacked and smeared from both sides instead of just one.

[LazerBean]

Lol there are enough people in this country to smear you from both sides, regardless of where you are on the spectrum.

[Asker]

Second thought your right, as a ex-Democrap, experienced attacks and smears from fellow Democraps plus people on the right.

[Dargil]

You just have to ignore those morons. They weren't raised right and have no class.

[dustybiker]

Here? Put more details into your wording. Or simply don’t ask anonymously.

[Asker]

Happening here and other places.

ANON…why you hiding, Mr. Illegitimate 🤷🏻‍♂️
