People are only ready to receive so much Truth.
And ~~even~~ especially then, likely with anger.
... and ofc that includes ourselves as well btw.
It's not all that different from irl conversations then, except you cannot look in each others' eyes to gauge sincerity. So ask yourself: why have irl conversations at all - especially when you know they will turn ugly? We cannot really help you further b/c you have hidden behind an alt account here, though I hope this gives you some stuff to think about.
Honestly, my only thought right now is "?"
I don't understand this, do you think I'm someone else from here that's using an alt? Because if you do, I'm not, you got it wrong.
I do avoid some conversations IRL because I know they will get ugly and me giving my opinion isn't necessary or important. There's a saying in my country about never discussing politics or religion. Seeing how some people can get when you disagree with them, I've found it wise to follow it.
