I think we have finally come to the point in history when people are being called out for deliberately getting the wrong impression, running with it, and using their misinterpretation to harass or attack someone else. There have always been people who have been trying to advocate for themselves and others, and those who benefit from tearing others down will intentionally project their insecurities on those people and pretend they are hurt. Rather than continuing to explain reality to those people, folks are finally ready to let those people keep spouting nonsense while walking away from them.
No one is going to keep explaining anything forever, and those who expect consistently patient teacher for millennia are emotional tyrants and terrorists. At some point, when someone says, “No,” and someone else says, “But why?” it become prudent to understand that the questioner does not truly want an explanation. Questioners want approval to eliminate boundaries, not to actually respect and comply with boundaries, and their main goal is to wear down anyone presenting them with a boundary. At some point, it becomes time to tell those who cannot hear “No” without pitching a fit or demanding a soliloquy that “No” is a complete sentence, and nobody is entitled to further explanation.
All over public spaces and social media, people are starting to stand up for themselves and enact consequences for those who deliberately choose to alienate others while still demanding to be seen as “innocent” and “good” individuals. When considering that it has been time to give up on people, I also wanted to point out that “dialogue” and “discussions” that lead nowhere and offer nothing have no place in a rapidly changing world. Emotional manipulation is no longer seen as a skill, which is why people are finally ignoring those who pretend that nobody wants to work any job they are offered, as if all offers are good. Folks who choose to get it wrong are folks who will deal with people being gone.
