And I usually ask myself this question. Am I being a hypocrite? I so I want to be, you know, violent in the sense that, you know, I talk down on you and I, you know, step on you and I, you know, allow my ego, you know, to overcome me and just, you know, put you in a place of, you know, darkness. And but I never do that.
SourceI never do that. Whenever I am in a discussion or in an argument with someone, I try to understand that person and I try to speak to them, you know, in a way that will make them see that I'm trying to understand the truth from them. So I don't know.
I don't know if if that's just another voice, you know, speaking in my head. But sometimes I feel like I'm a hypocrite, you know, wanting to do something and doing a wholly different thing. So thank you very much, Tim.
Absolutely. And I, you know, I love the response and it was interesting to hear because I had to process when you said, you know, the discussions about Islam or the discussions about feminism, how you would get irritated and emotionally excited. And as I was listening and see my brain was having a split in that moment because I'm trying to make sure I still hear the rest of what he's saying.
While I'm still trying to process emotionally excited and irritation going hand in hand. And we typically think of excited as being, oh, man, I'm glad to see that I'm happy about this. But it's hard to imagine someone being irritated and excited at the same time.
But I get it because we see as those attacks or the retaliation, there's an emotional excitement and excited doesn't necessarily mean happy. It doesn't necessarily mean happy that something is excited. And I like that you were asking or trying to figure out, is it hypocrisy to feel one thing and not necessarily express what you're feeling, the way you're feeling it? And I would say no, without knowing exactly what the circumstances are.
