A Really Stupid Mentality
4 years ago
Saw someone make a comment like this in a YouTube video reading Reddit posts of people talking about stupid mentalities that need to end, and thought it bears repeating since I'm of a like mind:
If there's one mentality I REALLY don't like, it's the one where people post their opinions on certain topics of discussion on any form of social media, and then follow it up by saying something along the lines of "I'm not going to debate this with anyone. If you disagree with me or my opinion(s), I will unfollow and unfriend you 'cause I don't wanna hear it"...
When I see those kinds of comments, my blood BOILS like you wouldn't believe! It honestly baffles me how people like this can be SO unwilling to disagree, discuss, and learn about the other side of things like that! And honestly, even if I do end up agreeing with their points, I'd still give them shit for saying something so blatantly closed-minded, that it makes their points completely sound less like a mature response to something and more like childish ranting and whining (which knowing those kinds of people, it usually DOES boil down to the latter)! Seriously, what's the f*cking point of posting your opinion of something on a public forum, and then not engage with it with other people; including the ones who disagree with you?
I'll tell you what that point is: It's that people who do that shit aren't looking to learn anything. They're looking for echo-chambers that're constantly telling them they're right and that they should NEVER question anything they hear ever; like the good little pawns on the chessboard they truly are...!
Well, you know what I say to that? I say "F*ck that shit! I'll save you the trouble by either avoiding you like the plague from now on, or unfollow/unfriend you myself since you asked OH-SO nicely! Have a nice life of pure ignorant bliss, and here's to hoping you'll someday learn that the world doesn't revolve around you, you precious little snowflake!"
(Sorry for the rant, especially since it's something I don't usually do. It just had to be said sooner or later, and we under the Aries Sign are known for being blunt, brutal, and particularly harsh with our honesty...! ^^; )
