              How so? If I’m in a meeting, I give my peers the attention that I would want them to give me.

              Is this a bad thing?

                Good on you for having the supernatural ability of arbitrarily assigning how much attention you want to give to something!

                Unfortunately, that’s not how regular human brains work.

                  Ahh yes. The golden rule. Too much for “regular humans.” That explains a lot about how the world works.

                    I mean, if you think that’s so easy you should go into psychiatry. You could singlehandedly solve ADHD, OCD, PTSD and a plethora of other mental disorders just by finding a way for the human brain to “place attention where you want it to be”.

                It’s pretty clear from this thread that people are telling you you’re an asshole based on how you treat other people, directly reflected by your first couple of comments in the chain. To ignore your own earlier behavior and instead goad an argument is simply more evidence that you’re the type of person that generally sucks to work with.
