jesus fuck so many parts of this are psychic injury

the account name, the presumption of "oh yeah my opinion is right", the very nature of this person's "engagement" (quotes intentional) with conflict, the deference to non-authority (holy fuck how the fuck is it that we have worse than the personal-abdication of christianity (oh right, it's mcfuckingsaltman's fault)).....

I want to say "some of these people are in desperate need of a hug", but then as a friend of mine pointed out recently: "maybe if they weren't all such self-loathing pieces of shit they may actually get a hug"
