Oh yeah it's not like he has any political power over people's lives and well being. Oh wait.

I never said he doesn't have power over peoples lives. I simply pointed out that obsessing over him and making multiple posts about him every day all over the place does absolutely nothing but keep all of you angry for the rest of your existence.

In no way am I excusing his behavior, but I am calling you out for keeping all your own lives way more miserable than they need to be.

Y'all can keep your negativity circle jerk. I'll worry about the things in my life I can actually control instead of constantly wasting my time and energy bitching on the Internet about a guy that I will never be able to influence on any way whatsoever.

I genuinely feel bad for all of you. So full of hate for a man you can't do anything about you're letting him have more effect over your life and mental health than he ever should.

Is that why you keep responding with vitriol, repeatedly, to people on the internet whose minds you cannot change?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 16 hours ago

I don't feel I have been vitriolic in the comments. If it's comes across that way I do apologize.

I have already admitted in another comment that I am wasting my time trying to have discussions with people who are clearly not open to changing their minds.

Just seems like a massive waste of time and energy from so many of you. Much like this is a waste of my time.

Again it is what it is. Oh well.

I am explaining why people pay attention. You're talking as if this is the crazy neighbor that can just be ignored. After that, that's some crazy stuff you just assigned to me. Me thinks it's projection. Ciao. (See I can ignore you because you have no power.)

Again there is a big difference between paying attention and making hating someone a major part of your identity which I know for a fact is true for many people who are chronically online and on the far left.

And good on you for ignoring me. As you should. Exercise free will and don't give time or energy to things or people you can't do anything about.
