mindbleach, 24 days ago If you’ve never had this exact bullshit pushed on you as sincere argument, count yourself lucky. ‘Do you want that to be true?’ is the sort of hair-pulling nonsense that makes you want to shake someone and ask what the fuck they think truth means. ‘Why bother?’ and ‘Why be a decent human being to people around you?’ are both just sad. Like these people have nothing else going on in their lives. ‘You don’t understand’ or ‘I was like you once’ and other universal dodges are rhetorical dismissal requiring no effort or context whatsoever.
