your life will be much happier if you stop trying to placate people with stunted capability for empathy. nothing you do/don’t do will ever be good enough for someone that deep in the propaganda machine.

do whatever the fuck you want (as long as it doesn’t hurt others), and tell the manchild/woman to pound sand if it triggers them

the smugglers and slavers that started the american civil war over taxes they didn’t want to pay were all landowners too

say what you want about the tenants of national socialism, atleast it’s an ethos
