Are You Easily 'Triggered'?

[image]
If so, why?
I ask simply because many of my posts here elicit angry responses, and I don't know why. I mean, ALL I do is challenge widely-accepted beliefs that to me seem insane. It's nothing personal, but people take it that way. It's almost as though they can't handle the thought, the mere possibility, of being wrong about something. Are their egos really so fragile?
That's not me in the photo, by the way.

Honestly, I don’t get triggered by strangers that much. I learned to just walk away when I can, rather than wasting my energy on a random stranger, unless it somehow gets physical in the real world. I only get triggered by people I care about that say or do something stupid because I do care about their wellbeing. It’s like I have the need to correct them, while with strangers idgaf.
