I actually agree with that ? but I guess for me it isn't about revenge against those who don't respect me in return, I just don't want to be part of the problem that causes such division. I fought with people for 2 years between 2020-2022, and what it taught me is that always fighting against people is exhausting, it actually doesn't have any beneficial effect on the people I'm fighting against, people want to talk but they don't want to listen, It's not making us any more united, it's making us more divided. The more divided we are, the easier it is to be manipulated and controlled. So I don't want to see people as categories anymore, bound by their stereotypes because of what they associate themselves with. That's a big part of why I left Mastodon, is because a big majority of people there see people as categories, not as people, and if you aren't xyz, then you're the scum of the earth essentially. I don't really care what side of politics you're on, if you're black, white, left, right, gay, straight, whatever. I'd rather see people as just being people again. Fellow humans who on some levels I have things in common with, and on other levels not so much. The world would be a much more pleasant place to live if people started seeing each other in all the ways they are the same, instead of all the things that separate us. Maybe we really would make progress then.
But all that being said, I understand why you guys do it. ? And I am not saying you shouldn't do it. My definition of fighting back against society is just different from yours. I am indeed still fighting back, because I am opting for something different than what I identify the problem to be. Plus, I have chosen to be here and not there ? (Mastodon).
