    I’m not narcissistic…You don’t deserve “healthy or positive…you have to be punished until you stop…your resistance to my parenting…

    Bro, really? You wonder why people are nasty to you. I try to love all humans, but you are making it hard, but here I go anyway: Others attitudes towards you starts with you. Try to change it. Not with hate, but with love. If a parent did parent “as you do”, they would be a literal abusive parent. If you are in a shitty situation, try to get out, but stop making the world a shittier place. I don’t want you to be or feel shitty, I really don’t. Try to find happiness friend. This is all the advice I have for you. Please, please take it.

        Been there, so I know that there’s nothing anyone can say to improve the trust issues. People on lemmy are generally pretty nice, and a great alternative to a forum full of rage addicts, so feel free to stick around.

            This conversation is proof of the opposite, but venting is healthy so feel free to continue.

                In a sense, people disagree with one another to put each other down, but that’s a very Abelardian reach. Abelard wasn’t exactly good to himself as a result of his overextrapolation.

                    Abelard was, in brief, a monk with a crush who believed his feelings would send him to hell. Never acted on them, past a certain point, but castrated himself because of his “sins.” He obsessed about nonexistent sleights of his and others until it made him extremely mentally ill. And a cornerstone of modern philosophy. His letters are an interesting read, and public domain translations are available.

                    Social dominance theory is very real but severely overextrapolated here. Fundamentally, it’s a group dynamic that doesn’t apply to a website hosting a largely young, neurodivergent crowd where the only rule is “don’t be mean.” Your comment, in the 4chan community, reads like a call to action so it was taken poorly. Especially given that this greentext was, with nearly 100% likelihood, written specifically to further radicalize disaffected kids.
