Reply to comment by wednesday in Anti-MLM Action; or How I Managed to Rattle my Coworker Doing the Most Petty Shit. by asterism

Yeah as soon as someone joins an MLM they go on my "List of Annoying People" and there is no redemption for them and they deserve whatever rudeness I can muster. Which admittedly is mostly petty shit.

Because manipulating people with friendship is shitty imo.

i wish i could do that, but i'm so desperate for the approval of other people and the fleeting sense of connection with another inhabitant of this doomed circus we call "reality" that i'm almost entirely incapable of being rude to or even disapproving of other people.

... i'm not even sure if this is sarcasm or just honesty. but i love your praxis and i hope you can throw more MLM shit in the bin in the future.

edit: as someone else pointed out, this applies equally to MLM as either a marketing scam or a Marxism.

talk to me, so we can be friends. That sounds like a way more enjoyable experience than trying to appease normies to like you.

i don't think you're scary but for some reason i thought you didn't like me. i like reading what you write though. even if i don't agree with it, it makes me think about why i don't, which is really pretty unusual nowadays.

should i join that voice chat thing y'all are doing?

Oh, I'm pretty ambivalent about you. I don't think I've ever disliked you. But I disliked plenty of people and changed my mind. I'm not very rigid about that kinda thing. I'm glad u like my stuff.

U have to ask ass man, the one who talks too much. But I'm down to talk to most people just one on one. So if u wanna just voice chat I I can prob find a good time to do in on your schedule. I use jitsi so I just give u a link

I don't understand? Does my comment sound scary? Or am I scary to talk to? Because I can understand me being scary to talk to lol

I was joking but I cant think of a way to explain it that sounds funny.

You arent any more scary than normal imo.
