I kind of appreciate the "I don't need to understand or like you to support" attitude, but repulsion is a strong reaction.
Have you ever reflected upon the why?
Especially if you don't like that reaction in yourself in the first place, as you say, maybe it would be worth working on it?
Hah, I tried, yes. I feel it as unnatural and wrong, not sure why, can't really track it to my enviro or anything so I just gave up on it. Especially that in the end it does harm to no one. It's funny though seeing all the dislikes. Also, just in case - person that replied to you earlier wasn't me.
you can really pick out the redditers they really like pressing those arrows. its just a circle jerk its people who really like to jerk themself off.
Have you ever reflected upon the why? but you seem above that kind of thing. there are a lot of things in nature you are naturally repulsed by just because its strong does not mean its not a natural even uncontrollable reaction. but i guess framing the question fits you well. the whole repulsion is a strong reaction so it must just be you very bad person is just stupid.
I'm not sure why I'm bothering, since you attacked me out of nowhere and presumed a lot. I'm curious, I suppose.
Have I reflected upon the why of what? I reflected upon a lot, both about myself and others. I'm never repulsed by people, I sometimes get weirded out but I'm aware it's on me and try to adjust. I'm repulsed by behaviours, when they're actively hateful or violent, but I try my best to stay kind. I'm human, so sometimes I fail at that. I'm severely annoyed by anything illogical, as many neurodivergent people are, and again I'm aware it's on me and try to manage. I'm not above anything human, no one is.
I'm aware emotional reactions are not entirely controllable, and that's fine as long as you're aware and don't let them control you, which the person I actually was talking to seems to be doing fine.
Is that what you wanted to know? What about what I said triggered you so much you actually invented what I meant? Repulsion is indeed a strong reaction, it just is, there's no inherent judgement about who feels it in recognising that.
attacked you its a reply on the internet. and you seem to have no problem with it yourself i don't really care its just text but it does make things more interesting. yes its what i wanted to know its very good. the whole repulsion is a strong reaction thing but hey i got a reply.
