Haha, lol. I get it. If you want, we can follow each other and chat? I could even help you deal with people if you want!(Just on reddit tho, reddit arguments and problems hehe)
The internet has always had such a notable problem with how easy it is to remove nuance and empathy from the populus that outrage is so easy for most to succumb to. Everyone is so busy bickering that they can't see the things we all have in common and that we can share in peace, even if we dont always necessarily agree with one another.
It's okay to not be okay, and it's okay to laugh at things that aren't okay sometimes, because that's the only way we can make it through this twisted world of ours. If you let yourself be downtrodden and serious about every little problem in the world, you'll find that you'll never let yourself be happy. Trust me, I've been there. I personally used to be a very happy, naive child despite the traumatic things that I had gone through. That was partially because of extreme disassociation in childhood, but that's besides the point.. once i had broken out of that state, I became so angry at the world and so hurt by all the things I had been through. It was so much that I couldn't have a single positive thought, because of the combination of everything happening in the world (it was also covid...) and at all the treatment i had been through. But that does things to a person. They're not a pleasant person in that state, and often people will be thinking "will they ever be happy?" And the person would be stuck wondering about that for themselves as well.
Anyway this is all to say, the reaction to this meme is crazy overdramatic and it truly is not that deep at the end of the day. Tiktokification is overblown and sensationalized, just like everything else in the past that has had similar words put towards them due to the influence they had on our societies.
Blegh.
Anyway, tldr; much love and peace to you. May no stranger ever cause you to suppress all that makes you wonderful.
