It’s hard to truly internalize this but no matter what you think about something and/or how wrong you think someone else is, we are walking through life with imperfect imaginings of what other people think and feel. Trying to make sense of people is even harder than making sense of a person. And we are quite literally incapable of truly knowing what goes on in someone else’s head.
Definitely ask these questions but don’t drive yourself crazy if people don’t make sense. The behaviors and actions we witness in others are only the emergent characteristics of a lot of brain activity that we aren’t privy to.
I don’t know. I just know maybe we hold back when we shouldn’t. Doesn’t that just demonstrate their control over us?

Maybe it’s time to be a little crazy. If “a little crazy” is not living in an autocracy.
