Yeah I’m not saying any of that. I’m saying these people would be better served learning to not care what others say than trying to make the world speak in a way that doesn’t upset them.
If you don’t think you can learn to manage your emotions instead of letting your emotions manage you, then you are just a perpetual victim. And the universe doesn’t particularly care.
You know what the vocal minority is? Mean people aren’t going away, and there will always be one asshole to make you feel bad. Much more effective to not care what the asshole says.
The real question is, why be offended when no offense was intended? What even is the point of talking, of communication, if not to convey one mind to another? And if intent can be surmised and subsequently dismissed, isn’t that a rejection of the premise of communicating in the first place?
