  • that’s really terrible comrade, I’m so sorry for you and your family. I’m sure those experiences and memories have left deep intergenerational scars that linger within you and your family… I hope you can find it within yourself, to use those feelings to motivate in our work changing the world.

    Sorry if I came across like a shithead, I understand how easy it is to fall into a defencive mode, arguments online with faceless users are so easy to get out of hand. This felt like a small miscommunication that was leading to upset among people who would otherwise be close allies.

    It’s so hard to judge tone through text, and I could feel myself starting to bitter towards you. I might have said something curt and defensive myself, if I hadn’t run to catch a bus. We’re all pretty fragile, it’s a lot of practice remaing calm and to realise when we’re starting to lash out.

    I hope you have a good day friend :)

    I was not aware that emoji were suddenly socially acceptable on le reddit
