how do you all not respond to bigots in comments?

3 years ago by Rose to c/mtf

Genq with the title, it is hard for me to not respond to them because I lack self control, especially when Im not feeling well

On a better note, how are you all?

It is hard sometimes not to engage with bigots and bigotry in general...it just seems so senseless to me, I am always begging the universe to just give me the right words to change someone's mind...but that is not how it works...bigotry is something far beyond and unbeholden to the realms of emotion and logic.

It seems senseless to you, because it is senseless

Yknow?
