I don’t want Nazies dead. But they are not people.

I think you've got it backwards, friend! They are people, just awful people who need to be stopped.

Pretty happy I grew up with hippy parents who raised me on almond and soy milks 😤

Wow Amazon Prime and Nestle. I know I shouldn't shame my fellow captives, since I'm sure I'm doing something that another person would find reprehensible

Right they hate these straw people. I mean, I;m not going to say my own cognitive projection of "conservative" is 100% accurate, but at least my nightmare scenarios are about actual bad things happening, and not like conservative nightmares of genetically inferior people getting to enjoy the gifts of civilization.

This comes up a lot, and the comments for these posts always get mired in the complexities of for whom and forwhence and forwhicontext this is good advice.

Basically, there are people for whom this is really fire advice (like people who are unnecessarily repressing quirky aspects of their otherwise lovely personalities), and people for whom this is really bad advice (like people who need to stay hidden for safety, or jerks).

Broad, overlapping categories with many dimensions. Not really something you can wrap up in a prescriptive axiom.

That all said, the thesis of the OP holds up. It may be really hard for some people to find someone who likes them for who they are, and there are people who really should change, but it's still true that you won't find many people who like you for you if you don't actually show them who you are.

Sounds like the perfect way to meet with yourself though

Something tells me soy is about to get a real big brand facelift soon
