That the world is filled with pieces of shit who hate and literally try to kill people for being their authentic self (I was almost strangled to death by an asshole a while back because he thought I looked at his kids). And also had a lot of invalidation and abuse from trolls on lemmy and even an admin on another server apparently (indirectly, they encouraged harassment towards me).

It makes sense, how can one feel safe around a person who hates and sees other human beings as less than human? It’s almost impossible to feel safe around a person like that.
