you people like lists

do not interact before you interact please interact interests triggers diagnoses fandoms ships morals opinions look look look at me look at what i boil down to words on a screen lines of code look at me i'm not complex this is me right here on one page 100 words or less for the convenience of your short attention span please look please judge please see me see me see me see all of me you can see all of me here

you people are lists. you people are words. you "people". you're making yourselves "people" instead of human.

there comes a point, you bring it to the point, you compare lists and judge whether someone is human based on how many of their items match yours.

heaven forfend an item sets off your alarms. warning. enemy. danger. eliminate. searching archives for middle school insults. readying defensive slurs. activating snark. raising personal pedestal. moral position on standby. ready to dehumanize opponent.

i don't play with that. i have a life. i am complex. you are complex. stop bullshitting yourself. life isn't black and white. very few things are black and white.
