Why are you picking on her?, calling her out?
Gentra · 31-35, F
@SW-User Me? I sincerely am not. She might not be the best arguer, but I genuinely think she cares about the world and people. I think she has seen a lot of suffering and trauma. Good soul, fundamentally and more.

@Gentra OK I agree with everything you say, ..

what I don't agree with is calling users out for positive or negative reasons as it attracts some horrible comments from haters, as you can see here.. some people love to pounce on posts that mention user names that they cannot stand and bash those people.. Even though the post was made with good intentions, it can end up a car crash..😔

@SW-User That's true...

@SW-User what a hypocrite you are, you chime right in and bash people on posts like this 😄

@SW-User I see what you mean, but it's also an opportunity to practice getting better at ignoring the haters and focusing on the positive, through judicious selection. A side benefit, if you will. Careful perusal of the comments of these "haters" shows them to be rather silly, on the whole. This can inoculate us against our Fragilities, and boost our resilience. Side benefit, not central intention. Crisis is opportunity. We become Stronger.
@Gentra Really? In my own experiences in reading her arguments on various topics I find her highly informed and her stance grounded in truth. I admire her for sticking to her beliefs no matter how unpopolar they might be.

@SW-User No, I don't! Nope
