I hate people in positions of power who abuse it

I think my social anxiety was reawakened by an uncomfortable encounter with some people I won't name. And I was just starting to get better and comfortable with myself.

I have social anxiety too, but it must be cuz I'm older, I don't give a darn what anybody thinks of me, when I'm not doing anything to offend, anymore.

As far as those needing an ego trip, I think disgust is the biggest thing that I feel now-a-days.

Such is the way of the world. The laws of the jungle. The bigger fish eats the smaller fish. It’s unfortunate that people don’t really care about your social anxiety or how comfortable you are. Life isn’t easy, but the good thing is you have ways to better yourself. You can either learn to live with it, get away from it, or become the bigger fish.

Power corrupts, but that’s the point. Could you be trusted with power over other people?

@WintaTheAngle yes in fact I could. I am the most non corruptable person there is

@LookingForHappines Even people who hold beliefs contrary to yours? Suppose they were racist or criminally minded - are you still a safe pair of hands?

LookingForHappines · 26-30, M

@WintaTheAngle yes because I know what it's like being under a boot of someone high on power. Even criminally minded would get human treatment

You and me, both.

Abuse of authority is right up there on my long list of pet peeves.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
