when Sartre said, “ You know, to start loving someone, it's an undertaking. You have to have energy, generosity, blindness... There is even a moment, right at the beginning, where you have to jump over a precipice; if we think, we don't do it”
you may not share my epistemic beliefs but it’s not a huge deal as long as you’re not alt right etc. and i can handle benevolent misogyny b/c ALL men and most women participate in this. the problem is that unfortunately i will interrogate and critically tackle the things you say
!!!!! i love this and i believe this explains why i have been willing to be around people who i ideologically clash with (only to a certain extent) if i think they are solid people at heart. people are very messy and it is an easy cop-out to love humanity as an idea
it's so easy to be squeaky clean when you have no real life trying to maintain friend groups, relationships, communities or have to put yourself out there in a world with clashing ideologies trying to state your own piece
