    The “facts don’t care about your feelings” crowd sure like to put feelings over facts.

    It’s really too bad that shaming them for their hypocrisy does nothing at all because they have no shame as long as they feel like they’re “winning.”

      Much like “blood is thicker than water”, the saying “facts don’t care about your feelings” is misleadingly taken out of context from a larger quote. The actual saying is,

      “Facts don’t care about your feelings, and neither do I. In fact, I don’t care about your facts, either. Fuck your facts, and fuck your feelings. My feelings tell me that I’m right and that’s a fact.”
