    People existing in society in good faith. People who just want the world to be a better place to live, and aren’t willing to shove people down below them in order to get an edge.

        The sad reality is that I’m going to be fine. I’m going to survive the turmoil and probably make money in the process, because I’ve been lucky before now. I worry for people that haven’t been lucky. I worry for people that have been lucky but happen to be the “wrong” race. I worry for my gay friends that are looking at fleeing the country as an easier alternative. I worry for my trans friend that already has fled the country.

        The US has always had problems, sure, but nothing like this.

              What the fuck?

              I’m saying that your situation appears to be just like mine.

              What crawled up your ass and died this evening?

                I think people are misunderstanding your comment. There’s a saying “look in the mirror” which is used negatively when someone isn’t being self-aware. People are most likely taking your comment as a play of this idiom and it sounds like you are yelling at someone to be self reflective. It’s miscommunication

                  I’ve used that phrase many times before, and this is the first time I’ve ever gotten such a bizarre reaction.

                    Honestly, I thought you were using it rudely as well. Like,“Look in the mirror, ya dipshit” Your explanation cleared it up, and then going back and rereading it, I see what you meant, but don’t get too bent about the person taking you the wrong way. I probably would have done the same at first.

      100% why I stopped engaging in activism.

      You make a mistake and people always assume malice. It was too bad.
