I mean we clearly both understand it.

You can’t stop it from happening. Anymore than you can stop yourself from needing oxygen to breathe. Reality is limited, people are limited. My perspective is rare and only a product of certain luxuries that many people don’t and will never have and many people are totally hostile to my perspective to the point they’d kill me if they could.

I’ve been threaten with violence and physically attacked by people on the right and the left for my own viewpoints. Because violence is a great way to silence people who are different than you. Reason I left reddit was because I was constantly being banned for my perspectives that human beings are what they are and there is no changing us into beings of perfect good, and believing you are a being of perfect good is the more surefire way for you to justify violence and evil upon others.

I just pursue my own good and focus on what I value as bettering myself. Other people disagree with me deeply about that and often tell me that I’m a stupid idiot for not doing what they think I should be doing, which is mostly agreeing with them and validating their choices and beliefs. But my choices come at a cost, I don’t get to ‘belong’ or be a part of any tribe because I won’t pursue the party line of ‘us vs them’ and people think I’m a selfish-jerk for not doing so. Even in personal relationships, I refuse to see the world in ‘us vs them’ terms and it drives my partners insane because to them the point of a family is to form a unit to ‘protect’ itself from the ‘evils’ outside of the unit.
