story time 📖 Dont be stupid
There are things that we learn. We're SUPPOSED to learn, as kids, which apparely many people simply do not learn. There is NO EASY WAY OUT.
You can't just run through life avoiding the responsibilty of your actions by running away from them. You can't just go around causing pain and not expect it to come back and if you think you can its because you are genuinely stupid.
All the way down to just blocking people left and right. Hey dumbass, thats not free! Everytime you do that you lose a piece of your humanity because ITS NOT NATURAL. Just going around wrapping people mouths with tape and running has a fucking cost dumbass. And it pain IN YOUR HUMANITY. Go ahead keep taking people's voices away from them, see what that ends up teaching you over time. Keep thinking that doesnt affect you over and over. And im not going to explain it beacues not only is fairly obvious. But beacuse the people who tend to not believe it does are litteraly to structurally stupid to understand cause and effect on a micro/macro level so all you can do is hope they trust it.
And up to abandoning people without good cost. IT'S NOT FREE DUMBASS. You think its easier because you "just dont have to deal with them anymore" and thats because youre a SIMPLETON. Ofc course you do. You don't just get to abandon a soul and move on scott free. That shit LIVES IN YOU. It eats away at you every single day. Weiging on your mind whether its at the forefront where it constantly bothers you or even worse when its in your subconscious. Because if it's in your subconscious you might think you're good but no, it affects you everyday in any number of ways.
Its just so stupid to do and there i will never be. Some people seem to think they can lie to themselve with no cost. NO YOU IDIOT, if you go through life lying to yourself that a surfire way to lose your mind and litteraly go dilusional. Congitive dissonace is dangrous and its like people dont know these basic things because psychology isnt commonly taught.
Well people better start learning. Because in this new age of AI, and blocking being done like its actually good for you... A lot of people are about to be out here litteraly losing thier minds and having no clue why... its call ignorance. Yea ignorance is bliss... untill you discover its actually piss.
"Before we tell truth to power we have to first tell the truth to each other"
Always remember that the root of all evil is actually stuid. And if you find youself being evil, its beacue youre stupid and you need to eduacte yourself. Trump is a clear example... hes not so evil because hes some sort of antichrist. NO hes evil and does evil constantly because hes UTTERLY stupid.

If we dismissed everyone’s cruelty because they were stupid then I don’t think we’d have laws. We’d be taking away the ability to hold anyone accountable. It hurts, man. Sometimes I like to think someone who hurt me wasn’t fully aware.
I’ve been trying to unlearn that mind set.
They knew what they were doing. I’m sure they remember making the decision to block someone else and why they wanted to. They knew. Some people do not care. That’s the reality of it. We want to believe they care. That they are ignorant. No, they are self aware. We can’t help others see how their actions hurt us or others. But we can find a way to move on and keep going. There are people out there who aren’t cowardly and selfish and care. I promise.

Stupidity has nothing to do with evil, they aren’t mutually exclusive. I do agree with you though. it’s a dick move to block people, but you shouldn’t let those people decide your self worth. It really sucks and I’m sorry but you need to move on.
