to clarify, the only person’s opinion of you you should truly care about is your own, it is valuable to consider others, but you decide for yourself and only you.

You would not do well against fascists. It’s not just them though, as anyone can abuse this expectation. People can easily voice unreasonable opinions just to fuck with others and/or waste their time. Don’t pay such voices any mind. Not every voice can be taken in good faith.
On top of that, people rarely want the opinions of others, as they’re often fully aware of what people point out. It just makes them feel ashamed when someone points out something they’re already aware of. When you get the urge to voice your opinion of others, think about why giving it matters to you. Do not “look out for” other people, as it feels patronizing when you try to claim you know what’s best for them. If it isn’t something that affects you, do not say it.
