No hate here, brother. Only love. And perception. Your sarcasm is a fine enough shield, and you hold it well! I hope that it protects you until you can be hones

No hate here, brother. Only love. And perception. Your sarcasm is a fine enough shield, and you hold it well! I hope that it protects you until you can be honest with yourself. In the mean time, I'm happy to take your admission as a win, even if you'd like it to be insincere. Thanks for admitting your a privileged paranoid; that's the first step! I'm sorry you felt insulted by my assumptions about you. I honestly assumed that a sober recitation of the obvious flaws in your framing would be enough to deflect what was a small amount of candid anger that you decided to parlay into self-aggrandizing "advice". Instead, I can see that I touched a nerve and only invoked more hatred from you. For that, I am truly sorry! I hope you get less hateful in the future as I will try to be more cautious of similar types of lashing out.
