Help me understand.
If you intentionally break immigration laws to enter,
how are you law-abiding?
You can be pro-thing and anti-parts at the same time.
The genuinely curious question and statement I made sparked a week-long firestorm of accusations and venom. It culminated in a heated conversation with a friend tainted with revisionist history. Part of this conversation included recalling the events of my son’s near-death after the COVID-19 vaccine and myocarditis, resulting in a panic attack while sitting in my backyard at the end of the week. Once again, I had traumatized myself trying to find common ground, and I knew a change was required.
I contemplated leaving the toxic social media environment for a while, but I was always irresistibly drawn back by the fear of losing touch with friends from long ago and relatives far away. This time, however, I realized that my emotional well-being was of utmost importance, and I was willing to make personal sacrifices in the short term to prioritize it.
Two days after the incident, things are not as dire, and I am relishing the freedom of expression without the fear of offending someone seeking a confrontation.
Good for you! That place gives me the ick.
