That's the issue, I am not better or smarter. Yet I intimidate those that feel I am, thus they shun.
I need to walk the path of a sage, because society fears me.
No one here is intimidated by you, nor do they fear you.
That's because I mask a persona on 🧵🌐. If I act like my true self, folks immediately distance themselves.
In your previous comment you implied that you were shunned (your comment removed) because they were intimidated by you. So which is it?
I was shunned for “domineering conversations” or “intimidating ‘the [shunning]^CX^ community.’” After I got third parties to review our interactions, the community that shunned me plainly felt threatened I was not only too eloquent in my diction, but my anti-intolerance stance too overbearing for their ambivalent tolerations.
Did you review the mirror effect link?
This is Jordan Peterson levels of deflecting questions. Your comment was removed because it encouraged brigading onto another website. Nothing more, nothing less.
I am aware of the concept of the mirror effect. That doesn't mean it is relevant to this current conversation. Have you heard of this quote by Raylan Givens?
You're confusing two different issues. I am aware the mods for this community rightfully eliminated my post to prevent harassment, which I would have preferred it be Directly messaged for me to correct. That, we agree upon, so I am thankful for the act.
However, this same praxis without messaging the person first is why the other community that shunned me is in dire authoritarian praxis. I found the actions here similar, if not better, than what I experienced in the shunning community I mentioned at the removed comment. That community in question has nothing to do with /c/Trans_Memes.
I am explaining why I have to live in woods, and live with like-minded folks. It's not being misgendered that troubles me, but society rejecting my intellect.
Regarding that NPD quote depends on a fact nice people exist, neutrals, and assholes. If you live in a society that wants to kill you for being trans, or in my case, too bright, am I the asshole for choosing to abstain?
Edited the comment where I see the confusion laid.
I can't anymore. Have a nice day, or night depending where you are in the world.

EL13:
Mods here in Trans_Memes did a great job! I agree with the moderation!
Mods in the shunning community did an auth job, banned too many folks. Leninism auth praxis.
I must live in the woods ’cause I’m such a bright star, insecurities of the Leninists, assholes, and npds alike cause folks to shun me.
