he said
are you serious
blah blah
he has since deleted it
And I said
yes
I said I was scared
you thought it was funny
I'm just trying to understand you
I'm not trying to make a statement
I may have told you that
THEN
he said all you need to understand is
you sound like a scared sheep
parroting left wing talking points
privileged
blah blah
he has since deleted it
I said
if my honest experience sounds like "talking points" to you I'm honestly not sure how to talk to you
I was raised lower middle class
I made $40,000 my highest paid year
and I had a pretty rough childhood
nothing privileged about me
I guess our experiences are different
I DON'T TRUST the media
I thought we were people who could talk to each other honestly but maybe THAT was my overly trusting mistake
and what I hate about the world today is that everyone thinks I'm either left or right
no one will interact with me in a way that isn't
slotted into one or the other
I guess you just reinforced THAT
SAD
AND
he replied
and I have a right to laugh at whatever I find
HUMOROUS
AND
I REPLIED
of course
