People like me? What exactly is that supposed to mean? My race? My occupation? My financial or marriage status?
You really don't understand the question?
How could I be expected to know the intent of your question when so little context is provided? If you ask such a general question, you can only expect a vague answer based on whatever I guessed was what you wanted. In order to not guess and more accurately answer what you want I have to ask for more detail on what you're asking. Otherwise I just have to assume you didn't actually want an answer.
Clicking into this comment thread even though I know it's just feeding a troll.
Evasion!
people like me are guilty of stereotyping people like you
But seriously. I've seen a thousand conversations where everybody bitches about some person or people.
And the recipients of the bitching are always those other guys. People totally unlike you or me.
So I figured that was some gratuitous low-hanging-fruit-grabbing right there.
Which brings us to my question.
But seriously. I've seen a thousand conversations where everybody bitches about some person or people.
In a number of your comments, you've said things like "you people are all the same." What group of people are you talking about? Is your question directed at them (us?), or a separate group? All your statements and questions are vague and reductive, to the point that no one has any idea what you're getting at.
I work in software. If you go to college for a bachelors in Computer Science, (I hope) at some point you'll be taught the story of the Therac-25.
Beyond that, blockchain, LLMs, stable diffusion/DALLE/etc.
Massive indifference.
I relate.
I think it's because so much of our work and play these days involves concentrating upon ideas and stories and abstractions and such. We're all focused in our head.
Which means that our attention is turned away from everything else. IE the whole world.
If I'm taking this seriously, OP seems to be getting at the idea that people always insinuate "the other" is responsible for horrors, but that people in the same group are innocent? I don't think everyone does that though
No I'm not insinuating anything like that.
I expanded on my point elsewhere in this thread. It isn't anything fancy.
What?
Existing
Sorry you're getting so much hate over this.
Those people's answers must be "I get defensive when somebody insinuates that I have EVER made a mistake."
Self reflection is a hanging offense round these parts.
oversalt my soup 😔
Like, white people in general?
Whatever you are, go with that.
As an over thinker - I probably created too much of a soap box for my inner accuser.
As someone who's facetious, I've
probablyoffended plenty of those around me.As a cyclist, I am that kind from time to time.
As a chocolate eater, I absolutely support slavery and I'm not proud about it.
As a meat-eater and wanna be veggo - I'm ashamed of how we treat and farm animals.
But as a human, I'm fucking always confused, forgetful and utterly imperfect, not deserving of any redemption whatsoever. If I was more charismatic, I'd probably start a suicide cult
edit I like the question, but maybe if you framed it so it encouraged a little more curiosity, you'd probably get more traction?
None that I can think of. I am perfect in every way. 😌
According to society, not having the motivation to focus because I am just simply lazy.
