Is it normal that people here try too hard to be politically correct?

  • Just because you're intolerant, doesn't mean everyone else is secretly intolerant too. Believe it or not, not everyone is a dick :P

    • Yes but not everyone is a saint either.

      • Is anyone really pretending they are? You presume everyone is an intolerant cunt, and everyone who doesn't look like an intolerant cunt is a hypocrite and a good liar.

        • I don't know whether OP means people should start behaving purposely intolerant (which is a bad idea). Or whether OP means something else. But in my experience- I've run into situations irl, where almost every person I encounter behaves abusively, in some messed up ways. I would agree on the part that most people, secretly, are not nice people. Whether they seem like it or not. It's just that, nobody ever realizes people are like this, until they're in a traumatizing situation, and everyone- who would have otherwise seemed like nice people- are treating them like they're ridiculous for it. Not that that's a good thing... But I think it's understandable for a person, to feel that most people fake being nice or popular- and are actually not nice. On the other hand, people can't help but want a positive outlook, and to believe other people are nice. Because people need other people, and need social connections. (I'm not posing a solution for this, because I don't know the solution).

          I mean to comment on the idea- I'm not really arguing with you specifically. I don't blame you for feeling that not everyone is a dick, and I'm not trying to change that belief. I just feel good to express to other readers, that we're not required to only see things one way. Since I often feel pressured to believe most people are nice. I'm sure that pressure makes other people uncomfortable, as well as me. Though, so far, when I've seen your comments, I liked most of them.

      • I never claimed to be a saint... Just very very crazy.
