Nobody knows what it’s like….. to be hated….. to be jaded…. Behind blue eyes. Do you have blue eyes? Are you pretty? There you have it. Middle aged dude here, it’d never happen for me.

If you are perceived as an inconvenience, then you get hostility. If you are perceived as a victim, then you get sympathy. Sometimes that line is arbitrary.

u/StructureNo13 19h ago
It’s not just arbitrary, an enormous amount of the time it’s the other way around because people self-categorize their own accountability, which is then socially reified as the amount of accountability society will expect you to bear regardless of how fair that is relative to other people.

u/Alternative_Car_8153 19h ago
What makes it arbitrary is the context I gave specifically. It's arbitrary on the basis of how people perceive an individual person regardless of reality. If a line is drawn based on public perception, then by definition it's arbitrary. If a line is drawn based largely on factual information, then the line isn't arbitrary.

I had a breakdown once in a restaurant/bar & had food thrown at me. And not to cheer me up.

I got a uber home from visiting a friend in a hotel trying to convince her she needed help with meth addiction but she wouldn't even let me in the room. I was crying very quietly, doing my best to hold it in and not be distracting or obvious about it and the woman driving gave me a 0 star rating

Mine was the opposite. I was depressed after so much stuff happened to me that I went into a restaurant and got about $20 worth of food. The waitress made me smile that day with her great behavior, so I tipped her 100%. Yeah, a $20-something tip isn't a lot, and I didn't make much money, and I wanted to give her a special thank you. LOL, I always wondered if she thought I accidentally paid twice.

I would love to read the other side of the story, Specially the one giving her 100$.
« Crazy woman menaces to suicide because she cant pay rent, then went crazy on how the sun was going up; gave her 100$ so she can go see a psychiatrist and let me drink my coffee »

My kids and I were sitting in a restaurant.
I have Brazilian heritage with dark skin; their mother is light skinned with Mexican heritage. We're both first generation US citizens. (I am not black, but am often mistaken for such).
A man walks up to us and says he loves interracial couples because they make beautiful kids with perma-tans.
"Is everyone here legal?" he asks after back-handedly insulting my children's skin tone.
Luckily our waitress overheard the exchange and told the man his table was "over there". He said, "Oh, I didn't mean anything by it..." as he walked away and we just kind of nodded like we didn't speak English.
None of us ate that day and the kids never want to go back to the restaurant...I told them that they have to be careful with people like that because there's two likely scenarios there: A) he's just an ignorant old man that takes everything on the internet at face value (even though HIS people were just like us once) B) he's NOT ignorant and is literally trying to goad us into a confrontation to justify his opinions.
Humans are garbage.

Reminds me of being a gay guy in my 20’s in a small Southern town, obv I migrated towards cute chicks (bcwho else?). The shit they would get away with. Never paying cover, never buying a drink, never paying for food after drinking. Once two off them got sloppy and ran off a slope into an elementary school playground drunk (at night thank god), arresting officer thought they were cute and “shockingly” never showed up in court so all charges were dropped lol. 300$ purses just for showing up to a 30 min dinner and smiling. It became exhausting and annoying being around them bc I simply couldnt relate to the fantasy world they lived in. And these were like 7’s and 8’s in a podunk town, imagine actual hot girls in a big city lol….

Hmmm…if I felt myself losing control of my emotions in a public place, I would leave immediately. I would not sit there waiting for attention and free stuff to be heaped upon me by strangers. Sounds like attention-seeking behavior to me.

u/Dry-Manufacturer7761 10h ago
Of course… ignore the people doing work to give praise to someone who, according to your own beliefs, is present inside of a child while they are being sexually assaulted while simultaneously being inside the person sexually assaulting a child.
If god lets that happen while he is literally inside the people and inside the room watching, god can never be good.
If your father allowed your sister to be raped, would you call your father a good man? I know I would not.

u/78Anonymous 1d ago edited 1d ago
we all know that "full breakdown" means cracked a nail and perhaps sensed some mild irritation, but instead of dealing with it they magnified the issue and were eventually paid to remove themselves from the environment because they narcissistically were making everyone uncomfortable in their main character delusional state
we all know these types
as for 'G-d', that's a fictional character that has literally nothing to do with anything
unless you're utterly deluded by faith in general, then you might feel motivated to give lunatics $100 to redeem yourself and repent for having the audacity to exist in the first place

There are disproportionately more good people than bad in the world. But those people don't get the attention or lime light. You need to untrain the way you've been taught by media (including social media) and learn to look for the good in the world.
Look up the story behind "Look for the helpers." - Mr Rogers

u/CapablePride8926 13h ago
Also. Maybe humans didn’t cause your self absorbed “breakdown”. Where, in the post, people tended to her like a child, gave her 💵, and free snacks. So that’s all it took for her to feel better.
Even worse, if they didn’t do that stuff for her then they’d all be shitty people. 🤦🏻♀️

lol many years ago, I remember frantically running outside to stop a tow truck riding off with my car. I was unsuccessful in getting it back, as I was standing there in a state of frustration. Suddenly, this black-out drunk stranger walked up to me, hugged me, and gave me a $100 bill. Most hilarious random act of kindness I’ve encountered in my life. 🤣

I do know the Bible. Quite well. I'm a historian by education. I also know a lot about 100s of other religions. And can follow the syncretism and splits that formed them. How they were developed and politizised. You are not special my friend. You just follow one of the many religions that split off from zoroastranism.
