  • Your comment shows you fundamentally do not understand how societal expectations and rejection affect people psychologically. If half the world was constantly trying to make your life hell, I bet your mental health wouldn’t be the best either.

    But making that distinction would require critical thinking, a skill that, for someone calling other people “brainwashed idiots”, seems to be sorely lacking…
