People used to disgust me when I was young and angry. I tried to be so many different people to figure out who my people were and what felt right.

And after over 10 years of that I realized that everyone is kinda coming from the same place. It's our experiences and environment that are fucked up. Most people would do the same things as the people they think they hate if they were in the same situation.

Hating people ironically shows how underdeveloped your capacity for empathy is and sadly it's something which the worst, most powerful people in society villify.

They want you to see empathy as a childish weakness but empathy is actually a powerful tool to be honed. its the heart of human connection.

@RandomGirl42 there's a method to my madness.

Most people are dicks.
Not all people, and some are more dickish than others.
Put that together however it works best for you.

I believe in the good in humanity as a whole but I certainly do struggle with some people. I try to be open minded and understand others while looking for the similarities between us rather than focus on differences but yes, some days it is easier than others.

I get why someone might feel that way , people can be messy, disappointing, or insensitive.

But I don’t fully agree.

There are still good ones out there, and I’d rather not let a few bitter experiences shape how I see everyone.

[DryGermanGuy]

Not in general, no. But there are some disgusting people for certain.

I loved Clint in that movie. My son says that will be me in 20 years.

You have too high expectations

When did I say anything about me? Notice the quotation marks?

[beefcakebradybatson]

Most people's wish for me to conform with their black man stereotypes disgusts me.

Taken place in Detroit. You need toughness and being a bit of a douche to survive there.

[DrPepper12]

In groups yes. As individuals no.

It depends on the people I'm around.
