Im just a terrible person. I walk wrong. I talk wrong. I breathe wrong. I exist wrong and everyone around me makes sure I know it. I don't think suicide is a choice that is worth making but I do eagerly await the sweet release of death sometimes. I just needed to vent and you all get my sadness right now.

Well seriously dude. One thing I've realized recently is even opinions i think are dumb are grounded in a different reality than mine. Two people can see the same events very differently just because of stuff they do not control at all. Someone that was raped as a child will view abortion differently than someone who was not. That dosen't mean one person or the other is bad. That just means life has treated those 2 people very different and saying that someone has nothing thought out what they believe just because you disagree is an utterly shit tier take.

Attitudes like this is why the left just got rocked in that election. Both centrists and the right look at the entitled asshole mentality many on the left currently have and are disgusted by it. Opinions you disagree with are not invalid or poorly thought out. They are just different options. That's it.
