In you’re daily life do people praise psychotic people or behavior? Most of the time I feel like I’m a psycho that has to work with general public. It’s not like I’m aggressive, I just decide that how a stranger feels doesn’t matter as much as whatever I need.
I dunno you do sound pretty toxic. Maybe they formed the angry mob because of the things you say to them? The fact you’re trying to elicit negative emotions from them just because you’re bored is pretty telling. I wouldn’t be proud of any of this. It doesn’t make you edgy or cool. It just makes you unlikable and difficult to work with. I’ve been around for long enough to know someone like you doesn’t last long in the work place. They move from job to job and never really go anywhere in life because they frequently get ran out or fired. This sounds psychopathic in the sense that you are being sadistic and dont really have any long term thinking. Really seems like sadism just for the sake of it. If you want to go far in life, you need to be willing to reign this stuff in a bit and work in a team environment. Not sure what methods were unpopular but maybe it’s because they are ineffective. If they are effective, maybe you should swallow your pride and just accept that things will be inefficient compared to what you want them to be. Either way, you get nothing out of being shitty to people other than the satisfaction of getting under their skin. This is what I mean by psychopaths being dumb. Sure they have an uncanny ability to do shit like this, but they ultimately fail at everything they do because they don’t have long term thinking. I’d look at improving upon yourself so you don’t end up losing your job or something.
I like the Shame route but it’s more of a curiosity thing. Like you want to know how an electric motor works so you hook it up to a 12v source before hooking it up to a 1000v source. In this case, the 1000v source is watching their beliefs get destroyed.
I definitely said toxic things to the people on lemmy. It was toxic environment, mutually toxic.
Effective is relative. Like if I wanted the angry mob to form well I succeeded, but I was trying to get them to explain how I was wrong, like actually putting it into words and then confront them on their logic. But I can say my methods are ineffective in the sense that people wouldn’t explain how I’m wrong (I mean they wouldn’t say how my methods are wrong)
Re:zero anime has told me that I can’t and shouldn’t try to break people because they’ll make their way through suffering.
Now I undermine people in power by basically helping the fediverse , but I should stop undermine people even if I think they’re displaying toxic traits
