Naw, it’s just the healthiest way I’ve found to approach people online. Lead with earnestness and a desire to understand, don’t sweat it when people shut you out - helps with finding the good folks in a hostile world. If you’re so truly indifferent, why respond in the first place?
I get on with a lot of people irl, across the political spectrum. I don’t tend to bring up politics unless it’s already being discussed. Unfortunately, my existence is somewhat political so it gets brought up for me. I wish it wasn’t like that, but I do have to deal with people who would rather I don’t exist and that is not something I can be indifferent toward. The only thing I ask for when I ask for tolerance, is the benefit of the doubt. It’s not a way to feel better about myself, it’s self-preservation.
I don’t yet understand why you’re so pissed off, why you assume so much about someone over the internet you’ve never met, or why you talk like you’re forced to respond to me. With respect - you’re interesting.
No it isn’t. Watch this. I stopped reading there because I’m indifferent to anything you have to say about it
Hey wow, I didn’t catch this earlier, but you’re a hypocrite too. Doing the exact thing here you tried to call me out for almost word for word, right about at the same time. Incredible. You truly are a piece of work

Very cute of you, but I’ve got bigger worries than whether or not internet strangers care about my opinion. Enjoy your bubble.
