ppl sometimes say to me "u think you're always right" and i sit there confused because yes? i usually AM right. because i have researched the topic more than you, and i have thought through both arguments and counterarguments before speaking up. moreover, my anxiety and fear of being misunderstood simply doesn't let me speak anything out loud which i haven't thought 150% through. so technically yes, i am more right? i don't understand what's the problem? i'm not talking about my personal opinion though? i'm just stating the facts? and the facts tend to be something that's "right"? don't they?

#like please #just engage in a proper discussion w me if u want to share what u know and what u have researched #i also don't understand how i talk about history facts or political ideas and ppl are like 'these are just your beliefs'#and i have to explain how there actually exists a sort of objective reality #and that political views and moral values are not really equal to 'personal beliefs' that are the sort of 'oh i think pineapple on pizza #is the most delicious food'#how are these the same #ppl who don't like pineapple on pizza aren't oppressed #and it makes me so genuinely frustrated #i realize each person sees the world differently but that's why we have science and the sort – bc humanity is trying to reach some more #objective pov #that's why we have 'big words' that mean some specific thing and we define those words via dictionaries #while our explanations of 'objective reality' are still flawed (bc everything is mostly just plausible guesses) i still think it's better t #try and define it #and try and come to agreements on things of what certain things mean #idk even if the 'objective reality' can't exist isn't it still better to pretend to have one? bc if u only think how #'everyone has their own reality' and that's the answer/explanation u say to anything happening in society that u don't understand #or that u think is wrong #i feel like such skepticism makes ppl prone to not having hope in a better world #and i think that hope is soso important to have bc it's what drives the activism #just a big rant....i have many feelings ...#i don't understand how some ppl don't have such sense of justice like it's literally a separate feeling #; words generated by me #actually autistic
