*gives someone so much space that i never speak to them again*
This may have already been mentioned, but I also believe that making them human gives the individual such less power. Realizing that the monster you fear is just a human just like you makes you realize that there can be hope and the possible within the seemingly impossible. That’s in no way to say that it makes their actions any less despicable and disgusting in any way, shape or form. Their actions are still wicked and nothing like what your average next door neighbor could even think of doing. However, when we stop putting people on a pedestal and see them at our level (or better yet below that- down in hell for one), it’s an even better step forward to conquering the problem and staying hopeful.
I thought it was fairly normal to feel empathy for bad people.
I thought it was common, even.
But after my Elon/Grimes post... now I'm wondering if I was mistaken about that.
I wrote a post about Trump being traumatized after his assassination attempt and a post about his poor adaptation to aging. I expressed sympathy for him in both cases. But I still maintain my white hot hatred of him and wish for him to face consequences.
Elon was abused by his father. Some of the stories are incredibly tragic. Hearing those stories triggers an involuntary response in my emotional systems that I can't stop no matter how much I despise present-day Elon. I also wonder if that abuse never occurred maybe we wouldn't be dealing with this current clusterfuck.
I have never held so much anger towards a single person as I do my brother. But I also see him as a victim of abuse. I know he was once a really good person and he was slowly corrupted. I feel sorry for him. I mourn the amazing person he used to be. And I still love him.
But that doesn't make me any less angry.
i'm so glad goncharov happened when it did, right before prolific public use of AI. that was pure honest gaslighting straight from the heart. real human whimsicality and trickery thru blood sweat and tears. we were a family. and we all gonched, together. you cant replicate that with any machine.

You can't even lay in bed cuddling your girlfriends all day anymore.
Because of work
people make fun of youtuber stans for being obsessed with some mediocre white man but to be fair i would rather people be obsessed with someone who looks like any dude you could find working at your local gas station than unattainable celebrity pin up models. theyre editing flower crowns onto men with acne and wardrobes consisting entirely of hoodies and board shorts and i fully support them. its good for the enviroment.
This post is on my mind way too often
