    neurotypical game of lying to spare their feelings

    you say this like not deliberately hurting people’s feelings for zero reason and no cost to yourself is a bad thing

        so you’re saying you’re willing to hurt 20 people x amount in order to save yourself y amount of suffering. Literally nothing more neurotypical than that.

          That’s not what I said. I just said the cost was significant, because you said “at no cost”. I didn’t say I would never pay it.

          Also, twice now you’ve relied on wild hyperbolic statements to make your point. If I may offer some advice - I think avoiding those is better online, as they makes your comments seem like emotional knee-jerk, which undermines your credibility.

            why is my interpretation of your statement an ‘emotional knee-jerk’? That is exactly the logic people do on an hourly, perhaps minute-by-minute basis every day. Human brains are just emulators for the trolly problem.

      I love how you just COMPLETELY ignore the fact that the people have obviously not been enjoyable to be around for an extended amount of time

      Having to spend time around people you don’t enjoy? perfectly fine
      making those people a little sad once? how dare you
