Huh, “lying to you” and “full of contradictions” is kinda like a few politicians i can name…

ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS ALL OF WHICH ARE AMERICAN DREAMS

capitalism i guess

Because it’s often real fucking scary? My every past (often futile and misguided) attempt at forming a (stricly monogamous cishet) relationship ended for one reason (me) or another (the other half). I have been hurt by myself and others, by my own feelings or the other’s or the lack thereof from either. Now I live together with an incredible woman who gets me and I get her and our futures have so far seemed well aligned and stuff and I never have to fear to be judged or ridiculed by her unlike in previous attemps and I know she trusts me (and I trust her when she says so) as well. And yet still I find myself fearing: what if she’ll just stop loving me because of xyz? Because everyone else has left so far (sure I might have personally driven away a few because of my fears and insecurities, and maladaptations or other toxicities, but I’ve grown from those times emotionally). It’s real scary to open your shell and be at your most vunerable, but it is also required. Not everyone can be expected at any point to be able to do it just like that.

That’s my two cents.

yeah mostly applicable to the c-suite in most cases now that i think of it :D and also yeah i thought you were the OP in my reply, sry

well yeah, the argument kinda falls apart when you apply it to yourself. in any case referring to ideologies in order to not have to apologize when you’ve screamed at a fellow worker seems kinda weird to me, because i’ve never really thought “all managers are enemies” or whatever, seems really needlessly extreme and shortsighted to direct your animosity towards this person in particular. just go apologize and go on with your life.

the capitalists are the enemy not other workers. an easy way of distinguishing capitalists at a workplace and within said workplace’s hierarchy is asking a question: “would the workplace function were they not to come to work one day?” and if the answer is no, then they aren’t a capitalist. based on this text i’d say you probably should strive to clear the air between the two of you, if for nothing else than to make working there less shitty for screaming at a nice lady who just works there.

ah damn, it seems i am in the wrong here. sorry about that i tend to get like blind and delusional and shit with strong emotions and everything and the whole concept of NVC is tied to my own sexuality and personality and the therapy for the personality disorder and the and the… but yeah, uh nevermind me.

i also haven’t heard that name before, but this seems to be along the same lines that we were taught in dialectical behavior therapy within interpersonal relationship skills. one great use for this skill for people with difficulities in emotional self-regulation (usual in trauma-based disorders i believe, i was stamped with bpd myself) is to learn to detach emotions from whatever it is that you need to talk about, as to minimize the possibility of an overwhelming emotional state. i personally used to go completely delusional very easily in enough emotional stress, so much so that reality that everyone else could see didn’t really matter to me because i saw a different reality that i knew completely and utterly to be true. this tendency has lead to many moments of distress to myself personally and many more around the world, and this skill is one of the reasons i don’t suffer as much anymore.

which is why it’s so sad to see such rampant ableism in the comments. people completely misunderstanding the entire concept (because of it’s sucky name) and then just completely shitting on apparently everyone, someone there decided to bring up their general bigotry towards sexual minorities there or something.

anyway, nothing to do with the question really, just some personal musings

i really don’t know what you’re on about at the start, but exactly which definition of nonviolent communication literally makes nonviolent communication violence within nonviolent communication? i honestly can’t follow

These are the facts that are known to everyone born and living under Western Imperialism, because communism doesn’t work because communism can’t work because the Western Imperialists told us so! How can you be so naive and stupid to believe anything else? Do you not know?

That’s what you sound like, bootlicker.

Yeah that’s true

It might have been a misunderstanding between how being unemployed doesn’t rule out being a wage slave, even if you live in a country with a relatively high standard of living because the means of production are still capitalistic, you just don’t have any income and the government tries its best to not give you any also. Or I used the term in a too abstract of a manner elsewise. Or a combination of all and some others.
