Sigh Why can't I ever read what comes off well to people? Am I that bad with people?

I feel that. Other than getting a bunch of new socks, new shoes and a bag each of cashews and pecans... It was just another day.

Well, I sometimes wonder what would cause someone in better economic straits to develop a reactionary mindset. Mostly because I have trouble with reading people.

But is that my definition?

They aren't what?

I probably should have clarified that I was speculating, making guesswork.

I am often annoyed that lots of people say, wholeheartedly accept representation of diverse individuals, without considering that writers might not be creating them for the good will of it, but are only in it for the money. Said writers might make characters halfheartedly, or not care about the character at all.

Well, I took a careful look at socialism, even with it's history, and I concluded that, even with said possible flaws in place, it is ultimately for the betterment of people, to have a system where they get their basic needs fulfilled, rather than to live in an inherently exploitative and competitive system such as capitalism.

So it can be the wrong thing to be indecisive or skeptical of all things?

I mean that, I have seen lots of people react unfairly to say, the idea of a woman protagonist in games that are going to be released. They seem to be basing their reactions off solely a kneejerk impulse, but perhaps those same individuals might be seeing what they think is a pattern where they think all works with progressive ideas are poorly written.

Edit: I was just throwing out a possibility, based on my limited understanding with how people function.

I am aware that it seemed I was pointing fingers, but I didn't know how else to bring it up without too much tact or too much passive voice. It is also often frustrating when people don't care about finer details. Every time I bring up nuanced parts of both sides, my mom always accuses me of "being argumentative for its own sake"

I have had that happen before. I remember sarcasticly thinking "It seems I have angered the hive mind"
