RE: Toxic People Are Good For You

in #life7 years ago (edited)

In the west, those of us who are seeing this happen are calling it "feels over reals". Facts and objectivity no longer seem to matter in this culture, as long as you "feel" it, it must be true. If what you feel goes against, say, thousands of years of science, then science must be "racist/sexist/homophobic" or whatever other ism you can come up with. Identity politics rule the day. Our left-wing academics openly profess that they are Marxist or Communist and that all our problems are due to the racist, white patriarchy.

Personally, I am already quite wary of what I say on the platform here, ensuring that nothing can be misconstrued.

Pretty sure you don't have to worry about that here! Well said. :)

I always chuckle when someone says "that doesn't resonate with me" as if it is some kind of evolved sense they have developed when the truth is they just don't like what they are hearing & affix an "untrue" label onto it.

You said it perfectly. On my page you can say whatever you want really.

Yup, just recently had a debate about "Why I am not a conspiracy theorist anymore" and the other person would reefer to feelings for just about every single argument.

If you feel like it :P
