Why do some people feel the need to call someone dumb

I never see the point of calling someone dumb unless they affected your life or hurting other people. 🤣

Someone called me mentally challenged today.

@Rokan You are not being honest then.

Rokan · 31-35, M

@sree251 says you, but you don't get to speak for me.

sree251 · 41-45, M

@Rokan I was speaking for myself about you.

Rokan · 31-35, M

@sree251 you speak in ignorance

sree251 · 41-45, M

@Rokan Are you speaking for me?

Rokan · 31-35, M

@sree251 you made a statement in ignorance which i pointed out that statement is in ignorance. Now the good thing is you dont have to remain in ignorance its up to you what you choose to do. I could explain how you are wrong and you can learn, or your could remain making ignorant statements. Im qualitlfied to talk about the topic of myself while you are not.

@sree251 every day I'm in a situation of choices i can make. I could express myself in a way that is mean, or i could express myself in a way of kindness. My initial thought might be seeing something stupid and i could express that, but if i give it a moment i can usually find a nicer perspective or at least realize there won't be a benefit to myself to be expressive in such a nasty way. The honesty part comes into play when i ask myself who do i truly want to be and am I meeting that standard i set for myself.

@Gibbon its true i don't have to take bait thrown at me, but occasionally i like the challenge.

@Gibbon yeah but the thing that i remember is especially with younger people is that the only thing in life that will teach certain lessons is just time and life itself. Some people aren't willing to listen or make changes. If I feel like my words have a chance to reach somebody ill put an effort in and if i feel like they won't ill carry on trying to ignore them.

It is not honesty when you get to choose what you want to be. You would be acting a part, playing a role.

@sree251 a picture can have a 1000 words, 1000 thoughts, 1000 ideas, etc... if i pick 1 out 1000 ways to express myself it doesn't mean im being dishonest. I get to decide who i want to be and how i want to react. I am honest and true to myself always.

@Rokan

I am honest and true to myself always.

In that case, you are just a good act, one that you are pleased with.

Rokan · 31-35, M

@sree251 only i define what i am, but we don't have to be circular. Ive heard you and you heard me thats the end.
