One extraordinary thing about opening up as a MAP to some people that I will never be able to understand is the fact that in some cases people will feel so comfortable with your statement that it will bring out the worst side of them.

This worst side is not necessarily related to you. Sometimes it could be a personality trait, it could be something they did in the past with someone, and sometimes it could even be crimes.

Many of the things they've said to me I'll never tell anyone, because they're personal things from them. But it's still amazing that this happened.

Sometimes it makes me think these people equate what you said with the horrible thing they did. As if they were close to being the same thing.

Well, you have told them something so bad, they feel that they can trust you.

I don't tell people in here my name, as well as I don't tell people IRL my politics. But I don't think I would ever feel trusting enough to tell anyone that I was a pedo. (⚠️⚠️⚠️I AM NOT!!! ⚠️⚠️⚠️)

So sure. I know, that you are seriously open to talking about things more insane then anything I should worry about.

@LukeAlmighty I don't know if I should take your first sentence as sarcasm (you making fun of the people who revealed these things to me), or a genuine feeling that what I said was really bad.

@nate_river
I am sorry, but what you said is something, that could lead to your immediate execution in most of the world, or anywhere in the world if you meet the right guy.

So, yeah. It was an unironic praise to your bravery.

Don't forget, that I'm fucking autistic. I love talking about topics, that make people's skin turn for some reason, while I also don't have the instinct to sugarcoat it.

@LukeAlmighty I'm used to seeing people talk like that. When the subject involves this type of theme, everyone becomes "autistic".

Not that you're not, I'm just saying that your reaction isn't too far from what I'd expect from someone.
