this is but a truth even I realized late in life (different circumstances but anyway) reminds me of the stanford prison experiment.

i'll just say kindness makes you a threat to those who weaponize guilt, because your decency highlights their deficit. but then again the truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it. even if they demonize you, your truth remains. keep walking. let their hate exhaust itself in your absence. don't let yourself be engrossed by what others feel (unless it's your SN fam) else what will we do if we get a depressed k00b 🥶
