At least this thread went to an interesting topic...it's been hard to feel some joy and interest when there are people you know in life going through a state of defensive denial, panic/anger and taking it out on others recently.
Basically, there are some people I know who have become very "mean", in nicer terms, to other people after they've been told something that unintentionally set off their emotions, make them panic for the wrong reasons or other defensive triggers. That defensive state of "It's not my fault. I'm not a bad person. You are being abusive." deal despite not being told that at all. And basically, they are taking out their anger by telling others how they've been abused and whatnot. It's not a bunch of people targeting one person, but more so different people with different people, like one is targeting one person, another is doing it to another person, etc.
If you are worried about me, relax, I am not the one suffering from any of them. But even if I'm not part of any of them, it's still really hurtful and puts you down when you see a bunch of people you know are decent people suddenly become very "mean" or angry at other people, especially when it's multiple people in a short span of time from each other.
