If your history books did not teach you about how fucked up this world is and how fucked up people are, then you read the wrong history books. Or, more likely, none at all.
The books, I read fully prepared me for this bullshit. None of this is a surprise, nor should it be.
You kinda missed the point of the post. Nothing they said implied that the history books didn't contain monstrosities, just that the books didn't prepare them for living life while monstrosities occur.
Just block them and move on. Its healthier that way.
No, I didn’t misunderstand anything. You did, specifically my comment.
No your comment is clear. "I'm smart and well read but no one else is. They're all idiots! But not me!!"
I’m sorry you’re feeling that you had to hallucinate your way around admitting you were wrong.
That’s a form of delusional psychosis. Nothing to brag about.
You apparently think you're talking to someone else. But in any case, this was a very human and relatable post but you went out of your way to smugly shit on it.
Pretty bold statement for someone who thinks the concept of a “conversation“ is a delusion.
This may shock you, but most people are able to interact with other people and talk to them. Then they can have a “conversation”.
It’s not a delusion just because you will never have any hope of a healthy interpersonal interaction
How high are you? Legit seems like you're responding to your own comment. It's certainly nothing related to my comments
Buddy, you came in hot because you misunderstood what I said, and then decided to blame me for it rather than yourself for the misunderstanding.
How on earth does your brain work out that I’m somehow to blame for that?
Cry
Find someone else to make you feel better about a being a shitty person
LMAO after your comments here. Go read a book about how to relate with humans
Says the guy who invented a conflict just so you could argue for an entire day with an Internet stranger
I’m sorry that you’re so lonely
Well then you better do a better job of explaining yourself cuz I read it the same way that guy did. I think you completely missed the point of this post.
Holy shit what a huge amount of entitlement.
I don’t owe you anything, nor will I ever. If you cannot figure out the meaning of my incredibly simple and straightforward comment, that is 100% on you. I bear no responsibility here.
Pro tip: you’ll make it much farther through life if you own your own problems and overcome them rather than just blaming everyone else for every time you’re wrong
Honestly the post should say ‘history classes’. Classes tend to cover a broad scope as do the textbooks they assign. I certainly have read larger picture nonfiction work, but I think it’s more common for books to cover more specific periods of time.
