How To Stay Unphased When People Attack Your Person And Your Beliefs
[updated on April 4th for clarity.]
Recently, I have been personally inundated with less than favorable attention. My reaction has led people to assume that I am a 'clout chaser'. No, I am not. It's why I let that message go through. (Also I found it amusing)
It seems however, that anything is ammunition to the right people. Okay, no worries.
This post is meant for one egregious individual in particular, who is ripening in age (same age as me actually) but still has a lot to learn about life.
This is the last post I will make on the matter to close the chapter, so I'll keep posting my usual thoughts or whatever comes up. I have no interest in speaking about this beyond this post.
Yes, I decided to stay, like I said, just to prove to you that the tactic did not work on me.
Mostly because everyone already got their point across. I get it, I am the 'other'. By the way, accepting that is not having a victim mentality. Perhaps it's too difficult to comprehend for some.
The reason that this recent tirade and attack on my person (for being who I am no less) unphases me is simply due to the fact that all leftist circles work in this same exact way.
It's one of the reasons that centrists leave leftists circles in the first place. It's another reason why most of the internet is only radical leftist takes. The opposition allows no room for discussion or mentioning. I'm not debating my points nor proving anything, I am stating what I believe.
To clarify and because people don't seem to know how guestbooks works: My Guestbooks is moderated, I see who sends me messages and depending on if it the content of that particular message is negative or constructive, I may allow it to go through. If I find it humorous, I may allow it to go through. I have gotten less than favorable messages through Guestbooks that I have deleted. I move on. I was debating on even having a Guestbooks. Not because the commentary affects me, but I don't want people reading negative commentary if they also feel the same way that I do.
The tactic of attacking a person used by less than friendly left groups relies on dogpiling, social pressure and humiliation in order to silence what they perceive as the opposition. It's nothing new.
It's ridicule as a persuasion tactic. To denounce me as a person of minimal understanding, while simultaneously showing your moral upstanding as superior by mocking mine, you are not defending your actual talking points.
You are simply showing that you are a nasty person in general with no talking points to begin with.
Your entire belief system is based off of an over idealistic approach to life.
You are not setting a good example to anyone with your usual discourse. And you aren't defending your beliefs.
For example:
"Belief A is unquestionable, and this person is completely wrong for not believing in belief A, therefore they are X,Y,and Z. Therefore they are not to be listened to or taken seriously."
Except moral superiority is not an argument, and neither is cemented idealistic principles.
Don't act now as if you stand by your moral superiority and that I should not be attacked personally.
"But do not attack this person, simply move on and ignore them"
It's obvious by your stance in general that you crave that negative influence upon my person. You can't light a fire and then expect the grass to stay green, can you? Throw rocks and then put your hands behind your back.
You wished for personal attacks on my person to happen when you went on your temper tantrum and started chimping out and throwing feces everywhere. Not once have I decided to do likewise in your direction. It seems to me that this individual is incredibly bitter and immature. Which is not surprising, given the applied worldview.
So, to anyone else ever in the situation that I am currently in, know this: this is simply status signaling and tribal re-enforcement.
Don't take these people too seriously, consider it what it is.
Chimpanzees throwing sh*t everywhere and chimping out because they found something fun to do. Because their moral superiority is based off of tribal signaling and virtue signaling.
Now, my suggestion to you is, recognize the overused tactic and move on.
The time for reasoning is never, simply exist.
Just as I am doing. Existing.
Also, I still stand 100% behind my initial 'problem' post. I think that Europe is falling because it's being taken over by non-Europeans. Look up the statistics and do your own analysis on the situation. This is nothing new, it's always been a problem, but now we have a modern rebranding of the issue, and misdirected compassion has infected the minds of European stock who now defend their own downfall.
The tactic of attacks on my personhood will and did not work on me, and it never will.
