I can see that reading isn’t your thing. In a podcast, yes it’s a hacky gimmick that right wing dumbasses repeat because critical thinking isn’t about as abundant as teeth or girls that they share amongst themselves.

But when you are actually talking to someone, feelings do matter. Or you are just blurting out stuff for your own ego. Your facts don’t mean shit to the person listening unless you care about how they are receiving the information.

No one, and I mean this stronger than I do to anyone I have ever said anything to (including my son or mother), no one, is so important that their information is above this social norms.

There is no saving humanity conversation like in the movies. Or some dumb hero’s quest with your knowledge. You are just like the rest of us. Your facts are easily found. The relationships you have with people are not.

Feelings do matter in the real world. It’s a snake oil salesman pitch to sell a “real man’s” cosplay that people buy because they can’t look internally to actually fix themselves.
