That's the problem with personas.
I cannot describe you just how stomack-turnijg it is to hear otherwise "kind" friends talk about their absolute disgust of right wingers and incels in front of me, and when I point out that I am there, their brain literally can't handle the contradiction.
I use Fedi to sort my thoughts. I am as real as I can get, even including the autistic part, that I know is too real even for other autists. It literally has all the benefits of therapy with no downsides.
But, in reality, I'm just a kind nerd you wouldn't want to talk to anyway 🤣
So, that's why I hate the saying of "The internet is not real." It is real, it just works on a different layer of our personalities.
