A Random Thought

[unspeakablehorror]

The enemy of your enemy is definitely not always your friend.  I'll just say that I find it extremely annoying when someone despises the same person as me but for entirely awful reasons.

This is a mood. I hate when that happens and I feel compelled to go "but actually" to correct people to despise someone in the correct way, for awful things they've actually done (see also: my broader problem with internet SJ rn). Dunk things in the right trash can ffs!

Yeah, it's always such a frustrating feeling because I really, really want to say my piece but I also really, really don't want to deal with some of the possible reactions to that. I tend to feel like I lose no matter which choice I go with.

Extremely specific yet relatable feel! This happens to me constantly when people criticize conservative Christians while clearly (to my eyes) not having a very good grasp of the institution they're criticizing, and it always drives me nuts because my inner pedant feels compelled to set the record straight, which then leaves me feeling like I’m defending the last people on earth I want to be defending. But I don't want to defend them, I just want to see them criticized with cutting and merciless accuracy.
