I derive immense pleasure from making Giant's Lair players extraordinarily angry by saying things like, "Hey insulting a guys religion really isn't cool", or "Maybe developers that delete land claims should be demoted for insanely abusing their power." It's quite refreshing to see everyone take off their mask and reveal the ugly hateful person underneath.
Disagree with me all you want, and Robert Clark may be an ass or something, and it still doesn't make making fun of his religion, or his religious beliefs an okay thing to do.
I'm so excited to see more hate posting. Let's fucking go
So, like, frankly... If you truly believe the space to be so toxic, I would encourage you to leave it. I say that from a place of compassion. I know from myself how much it can wreck my mental health to linger in a space that feels suffocating and harmful to me. Something I've sadly had ample experience with. So with truly, genuinely, all the love I have: whether this place is toxic in essence or only toxic for you, the best gift you can give yourself is to prioritize your own mental health and leave when a space feels this way to you. I promise you that it will give you so much peace of mind in a week's time.
Like, just leave. You've made your farewell. You believe this place to be toxic. You claim you were bullied out. You're all set.
What benefit is there to what you're doing?
You haven't quantified the harm, only asserted again that "it's bad mmkay". It won't convince anyone that there's merit to what you're advocating. I've brought you quotes from scripture to prove my point. I've tried my best to entertain the idea you're advocating despite you giving me nothing.
I think you are only doing harm to yourself by lingering - and to the community, by fanning flames that others are trying to put out.
The way you conduct yourself is toxic to yourself and the community. Evident in the way people are responding to you and the way you are responding to others.
You are not doing anything good for anyone here. Your advocacy isn't helping anyone, much less changing any minds. Because the way you advocate is antagonistic in nature. The post I'm replying to reeks of self-righteous arrogance and that will not help people learn or open their minds to what you're trying to promote. You haven't even done the courtesy of explaining why what you're advocating for is right - or why the contrary position is wrong. There is no virtue in what you're doing and nothing good will come of it. Other than, I guess, the engagement you've inadvertently promoted by making an ass of yourself in public.
You can advocate for what you believe to be good and true without turning people against you. But you seem perfectly content to turn people against you instead of convincing them that what you want is good.
If you do not want to be here except to ... I don't know, virtue signal without substance? Then, like, just leave? Genuinely, without a sliver of hate, go away. It'll be better for you. And ultimately, for the community as well.
