#i went on a bit of a tangent but yeah prompted by the many strikes/protests around the world and the many complaints abt them

it's insane to me how people who spend WAY more time than me around others and have closer interpersonal connections that me can't understand the basic concepts of functioning in a society like... the moment you cause them mild inconvenience (protesting, babies crying, children playing loudly, someone fixing something etc) they start complaining like it's the end of the world; they have no tolerance for others just existing, for others who don't fit their imaginary idea of what a person should be; their first, unexamined reaction to something they don't understand is to be mean, to complain or to degrade. it seems to me like they'd rather someone be run over by a truck then step on their foot to prevent it, as long as they don't have to see the mangled corpse. like i might be an autistic, traumatized dude who can barely keep a friendship and who's terminally online, but at least i understand that people's rights and lives should come before my comfort, and that not only is people's existence not a curse upon me personally that should be removed, it's something joyful.
