People project all kinds of things onto people they see on the internet. I'm sorry you had to deal with so much of that. This is a good way to handle it.

- themodelplumber 4y agoIt was cathartic to read and you're right about the projection. In a kind of similar vein, I did some write-ups in the past where I analyzed controversial people and thought I'd do so without weighing in with my personal opinion on them. So then I basically got a bunch of emails from socially-frustrated readers looking to relate to me as their new comrade, because we were both obviously fans of these controversial people. It seems there are a lot of socially-frustrated people out there who don't read between the lines, and who also don't believe it's appropriate to even do anything that's in between any lines, so to speak. So I wonder if this is related to the social frustration...
