I mean sure: you can't walk away from racism in humans like you can't walk away from narcissism in humans. At some point you'll encounter it.
But I can walk away from a situation in which I'm being treated with racism, or a situation in which a narcissist is playing their zero-sum game against me.
I don't hate the narcissist and I wouldn't enjoy their suffering. I just don't want anything to do with them. Nor the racist.
I press life's "restart" button to get a different interaction with a different person, and that has worked well. Even where restarting is massively inconvenient for me. Because ultimately most people don't treat others with racism and most people don't treat others with "evil", so I'm more likely to get a reasonable person on my next attempt.
- wpietri 4y agoI'm glad this has worked for you. Do you understand that many, many people can't just walk away from things? And further, do you understand that talking so broadly but with only your experience in mind may not come across well to others with different experiences?
