Is it your first day on this planet? No "/s" because I'm serious. Unless you've been so holed up and out of touch your entire life until this point, human ignorance is constantly on display.

I guess I expect general empathy and respect from others idk? I wouldn't think this sorta of thing would be unheard of but I also wouldn't expect it to be the norm. I guess I imagined it would be relegated to a small amount of shitty people.

To answer you though I probably am out of touch, I don't go out much except for class and in those classes I typically don't talk to people. I have a few close friends I have had for years and haven't bothered making new ones.

Don't get me wrong though I have experienced general shittiness because I'm autistic but throughout most of my childhood I managed to just be ignored rather than antagonized.

I guess I just expect better of people idk, or maybe a part of me believes that the severe ignorance I see online is just fake or exaggerated.
